But oh, definitely yes I have massive struggles with addictive desires. Hence the need for all the elaborate rules.
Okay.
You haven't made such a rule, yet. And you probably think you should.
Well, all that, to me, is just pure addictive voice. You're, to me, simply justifying whatever you need so as to stay-on-top of your drinking, within your own mind. I think you're just fooling around with yourself, really. We just don't agree with what defines the process you're in, you know?
Massive rules only take away from your freedom of choices, eventually. So, not a good way to go, imo.
Anyways, good to hear you are in agreement you do have massive struggles with addictive desire.
Live and let live.
