Some people might ask why even bother with the temptation...

I need to live my life "normally" in order not to feel like I am missing out on something.
Did you just write that you would resent missing out on coffee and boredom?
Appreciate the feedbacK on SMART. I have been seeing a CBT counselor, and I think it has been very helpful. Keep it going!
