It is a balancing act, especially at first, 1anddone. As time goes on and you create a healthier present and future, you will be also be creating a past you can be proud of.

Welcome to day 1; it can be a difficult day but it is when the magic begins.

My bet is that when you start to feel better, and better about yourself, that anger will begin to dissipate.

A better way to live lies ahead of you.

Glad you're doing ok 1anddone

Reading your post tho, I can't recommend balance highly enough.

Even if your new obsession is a good thing - like work - there can be a dark side.

If my life is unbalanced the more I become vulnerable to old patterns of behaviour repeating themselves, or manifesting themselves in new ways.

Take it easy

Not trying to demoralise you at all...yours is a great achievement...just a friendly warning that sometimes the Hydra grows a new head.

I don't believe any of us have to live with 'an addictive personality'
