Well it didn't take long did it. If I wanted a graphic presentation entitled 'Things that trigger my addiction' I couldn't have done better than this week.
Last week I was on holiday, I relaxed, I didn't do anything I didn't want to do. I hung out with some friends, spent time with my sponsor, shopped and generally chilled. Followed that with a fun weekend where I got to be the centre of everyones attention because of my big birthday. There wasn't much sign of my addiction during that week. And then I went back to my boring job my youngest son left home temporarily. And surprise surprise back came the problems. Stress does it every time. My thinking is completely wrong and I cannot get a particular man off my mind. Well all I can do is keep working the program, keep praying and turning it over, keep using the tools, keep finding new ways to fulfil my needs healthily. This too will pass. Lets hope.
