ANM, if you want to learn more about the AV and how to deal with it, may I suggest the AVRT thread pinned at the top of this forum, entitled ‘AVRT Explained (long).” It’s a great place to start understanding (and more importantly, recognizing) the AV.
If you really want to dig in deep, the “Permanent Abstinence Based Recovery” forum is where to look. There is a lot of info on the AV and AVRT. There is a 6-part thread on AVRT (Addictive Voice Recognition Technique) that’s amazing.
Glad you posted here. We are here for you, so feel free to ask questions.
