I wonder if this is how I will eat from now on. I really think that the simpler I keep it the better I will do.
I wonder if drug addicts have to stay away from beer and wine. I imagine that if they don't they may be more likely to fall off the wagon while drinking.
I wonder if ex smokers can smoke pot without wanting to return to cigarettes.
I wonder if sex addicts can snuggle someone they love without needing to "do it".
I wonder if shopoholics can get groceries without buying unnecessary items.
I know I will never be able to eat chocolate and possibly no desserts as I suspect that I will be more likely to fall off the wagon too. I don't really think I will miss any of it cause I enjoy how I feel more each day.
In gratitude, elly
I'm probably sufficiently experienced to answer many of these questions, but in the end I believe it is impossible to generalize. Lots of people have recovered from addiction successfully, while still indulging in little things, while for others the slightest slip quickly becomes a catastrophe. Only you can discover what you need to do, or not do. Now you wonder….eventually you will know!
