Day 70 - The Jagged Reef
It’s about chemical changes in our brain due to
addiction
and the time needed for those changes to be reversed. There’s a relevant article at ‘Psychologytoday.com’, type ‘Detoxing after Detox’ in the search box to access it, definitely a good read and being forewarned is forearmed.

Cutting
I was 4 years clean from cutting; then something happened and now the
addiction
to it is back. It’s just the release that I crave. Elastic bands and sharpies don’t work for me because it’s the physical release of the pain I keep bottled up that makes me cut. What can I do to stop this?

Given up so many times
I read somewhere that smokers are addicts and in
addiction
counseling step one is too admit
addiction
. In announcing
addiction
one is taking ownership and concurring with a community of addicts; being in community results in receiving and giving support. Another step is to confess clean or relapse.

migraines/Headaches
They respond to codeine only (cant take a lot in case of
addiction
), although I have been placed on the brand Amitriptyline before which helped. However its actually classed as an anti depressant also so dont want to mix those in the cocktail too!!

Ran a half marathon #rundisney
I'm starting to believe those who said running was their
addiction
. Ending the journey of Couch 2 21K, maybe a 42k race next year :)

Fabulous450’s Day 2 Challenge - Can’t Run, But So Happy Being Dynamic 😉❤️!
💓 Is this exercise
addiction
? 😂! If so, I like it! 😍 Don’t get me wrong folks, I’m no Jane Fonda and I’d like to have her waistline. Now, I might have chosen a younger example, but she’s the first to come to mind and if I can look like her when I get there, it would be pretty awesome!

My story
The more I thought about it the more I felt like my
addiction
came from my mental health so I felt that if I ever wanted to get a grip on my
addiction
I needed to find a way to get a hold of my mental health as well. If anyone has any advice for me I would love to hear it.

Finding it hard to ignore my thoughts
My wife was struggling with
addiction
did a lot of things that hurt everyone. We have been struggling to work on trying to save our marriage. She is sober but I have become someone I never wanted to be. I'm ruining my kids because I yell a lot they don't listen or respect me or my wife.

3 month off 3 month on and off again
I realized i hadn’t beat my
addiction
when work suddenly became very quiet and all I was left with was my addict, and you guessed it, my mind twisted it’s way around to making me think it was a good idea to smoke. So I did for 2-3months.

I'm just venting but if anyone has experience with loving an (possible) alcoholic, please help
I came up with a list of places by me that offer help with
addiction
, but I don't know how 1. He's going to feel when he wakes up. Will he be upset with me? Will he be super apologetic?

Perfect opportunity
I applied for something that I've wanted for a very long time, I see it as my purpose (
addiction
field in general) and Im obsessing. I am convinced that I'm not getting it and won't get the opportunity any time in the near future.

Stressed
He’s in recovery for
addiction
. He has mental health issues that have been recently diagnosed. And a head injury that he is still recovering from. They should just leave him be. Am I right? I’m just so sad about all this.... so so sad.

If you have been abused, it's all in your head?
How do co-existent psychosocial, behavioral, and mental health conditions (such as
addiction
, somatization disorder, and depression) affect the management of levothyroxine therapy?

Help
My parents won’t let me on meds because they fear
addiction
but I just want to have one day where I wake up happy and go to bed happy. But I guess that’s too much to ask for. I get yelled at when I ask for help so I’ve stopped asking.

New to group.. a short story
I have a horrible
addiction
