Congratulations on 100 days, HS. That's awesome.
I think your
mini-epiphanies (I love that) are definitely a result of your self-awareness evolving and coming to light in recovery. As your name says, I think if we remain students and are always willing to learn more truths about ourselves, those great mini-epiphanies will continue.
I totally get what you say about having no off switch - great analogy for where picking up
just one would lead.
Another great tool is learning how to use the
mute button for the chatter in our head.
