Wanted to mention there was a post in the Discussion part 1 about using the phrase "Vertigo" such as "I'm in vertigo" and "That was vertigo" in order to snap out of it so to speak.
I think that was posted by Terminally Unique.
I really like that.
The circumstance is different now since being introduced to AVRT but the husband's first little slip up in October he said he didn't know what happened. He didn't crave, didn't want, his monster was quiet and there was no AV to hear... he just caught himself driving home, taking a wrong turn straight to the dealer's house.
He said he didn't know how it happened. Described it as auto-pilot. He was going to get some before even thinking about it and by that time... he was already struck and couldn't get out.
I think the "Vertigo" phrase practice could be really helpful in this type of situation.
Really glad I read that and I really want that book now. Bah
