Hmm...is it the "drama queen" tendency of addicts to feel we need a huge reason to quit?

I mean, why do we need some earth shattering, staggering, crushing, monumental "NOW" moment?

We start and stop all sorts of other things in our lives without much ado...hobbies, friendships, habits, etc. We get bored, or find a new interest, or whatever...

but when it comes to our DOC? It's a whole nother story. Maybe THAT is the most telling thing? Why do we feel we need to be convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that we won't ingest this one thing?

Some of us fight to the DEATH, trying to convince ourselves and others that we don't NEED to quit...
