I find I am my own worst enemy. Self sabotaging before I even get started. Doubt. The cycles of starting and then quitting jobs or healthy habits.

What are your tricks to get out of your own head?

    That sounds a lot like walking a tightrope there buddy. You need someone who’ll catch you if you fall.

    I was only ever addicted to nicotine, haven’t smoked in 10 years, but I know it in my gut that if I pick up a single cigarette I’ll be right back to 1 pack a day in less than a week.

    Everyone’s different and some people can walk that fine line without crossing it, but the safest is to just stop, my friend.

      My husband and I drink together, it’s not like I’m always drinking alone in my sad little world. It’s a social activity. Plus we live in Japan and it’s very hard to avoid…lol.
