I just thought and I'm fighting a silly self inflicting addiction problem.
I've never gotten why people order problems into hierarchies tho.
A problem is a problem, and our problem is a tough one to beat - one of the toughest.
It's kinda self inflicted...but it's not - I doubt anyone here chose to be an alcoholic or drug addict...
and I know looking back I made insane decisions because I was well...insane.
Addiction is an insanity from which we recover.
I had to get out of addiction before I could appreciate that.
It was a character of my addiction to belittle myself & my achievements - I don't need to do it in my recovery too.
I agree that marriages breaking up, kids getting cancer, war, and world hunger may be bigger problems - but that doesn't make our journey any easier...
