How to Trust Instincts & What that Means - Help!
I was very drawn to the title of this thread. I believe that being caught up in the dance of addiction swallows us down into a vortex of confusion. Our instincts are thrown off and just don't work well anymore. I believe that we can't trust our instincts when we're being sucked into that wild, spinning, emotional, vortex. It's like one of those horrible carnival rides that spin you round and round and round and even when you first step off, your head is still spinning (and you feel like you're going to throw up). It's probably not the best time to eat a hotdog.
In the same way, when we are either still in the spinning vortex.....or when we first step back and begin to make realizations, it may not be the best time to trust our instincts. At least not until we regain our balance.
