See, there is always something to learn. I thought playing the tape was 'me' showing myself why I don't drink now. But actually, I suppose I am entering into a bit of a debate with the beast.
I gave up smoking cigarettes years ago, by myself (couldn't tell you how) and went from smoking cannabis every day for years to nothing overnight . Just got fed up with it.
Alcohol proved far more difficult, and I don't know why. Perhaps it just had a more powerful 'pleasure' affect.
