AAer and ex bulimic struggling with not smoking!!
Hi all, I'm new to this Site but I've followed several links about cross addictions. I've been in AA for over 2 years (best thing ever) London UK. I have also had many issues with food over the years especially Bulimia which has died out and then reared its ugly head again from time to time (especially when my serenity levels are low) but haven't been sick since last summer which is great yeah?!! So to celebrate I've now given up the fags (3 weeks and 3 days) but I'm struggling, I am eating more now and putting on weight gradually (I'm not binge eating I'm just eating all the wrong foods like crisps and sweets and processed foods which, I try to avoid normally).
God these addictions are soul-destroying; I wonder if I survive the non smoking (which is looking dubious now) what other addictions I'm capable of forming or relenting too.
Serenity levels are dangerously low too and I'm thinking too much too quickly but I really don't want to drink, smoke or over eat again but I'm miserable!!
