I know, berating myself isn't going to help anything. But, my problem is I'll go for the longest time without drinking and then my brain will tell me that that's the only way to relax and have fun. Essentially it's my coping skill, and I'm embarrassed to say I victimize myself. I don't want to be a victim, I want to be a survivor. Soooo....Katel, you're right, totally right. And nonsensical, that voice just won't shut up.
I know. I hear it, too. It is the voice of my addiction. It is not within my power to shut it off just because I really really want to. Yap, yap, yap. Annoying sunnuvabword.
Several months ago I realized something about that voice. (It only took me 25 years - )
I realized it has never once told me a true thing. Every single thing it has ever told me was a lie. All of it - lies. It's a liar.
I can't shut it off. I have to hear it - but I don't have to listen to it. I don't have to believe it or do anything it recommends. Taking advice about my future from a known liar? Why, that would be nonsensical.
Best of Luck on Your Journey.
