Thank you Dee. Is this what you mean? Rational Recovery | The Crash Course On AVRT
It seems to make some sense. Or am I missing something? I like the idea that the addictive voice hijacks my thoughts. I have to stand up to that part of myself. That might be a trick that would work for me.
No work today. Tried to make myself busy with stuff that needed doing. Into town and stuck in a queue listening to a spectacular argument. Exciting times.
My plan didn't work. Got home and drank more just to make up for the time lost - two supermarket visits instead of one. Work permitting I drink all the time now. I think there should be a therapy involving being hit on the head with a mallet.
I don't wish this on anyone. It's not like an illness where you can't control it, although it actually probably is an illness where you can't control it. The thing is we think it's within our hands. That's depressing.
Best wishes fellow travellers.
