That's the voice of your addiction. I have one, too.

It lies. Stop taking advice about important things in your life from a liar.

That's incorrect.
You can't turn that voice off just because you want it to go away. But you DON'T have to do what it says. It's just a voice, the voice of your addiction. It has no sympathy, or shame, or remorse, or morals, or inhibitions. It can't be educated, it can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with. It must be starved.

It's a liar and a thief and a killer. Starve it.

You can do this.
