When I looked at SIN, I see soul in need. Is there something in your life that is missing, or you feel is missing.
We use "other" things to fill a void or cover up a pain or hurt. That is how addiction works. The drug is but a symptom of our disease, it is the dis-ease within us that has us reaching out for something outside of ourselves to make us feel better. I am not a therapist by any means, all I try to do is share my experience, strength and hope. If you don't identify with me, that is okay. You helped me with your post. In today, I have been struggling with double chocolate donuts. It is the same mind set, and a lot of it is stuffing anger for me. My son is in active addiction, and sometimes as much as he tries to help me sometimes, he can be very verbally and mentally abusive. I can't take it on and take it personal, and I can't use other things, to stuff the feelings, but I have to take it to my God and let it go. I am diabetic and two donuts, two days in a row, is not good! I know it, but I ate them anyway. It is my thinking behind the substance that needs to change.
