WHAT HAS HELPED ME COPE WITH MY TINNITUS!!
(talk to your Doctor) most days when I'm not out and distracted I take a quarter of a Xanax which seems to help me work in my office ...BUT I worry about acclimation or
addiction
so 'Google' it and also you'll need a prescription.

QuickMist Addiction
I realised I wasn't free of
addiction
. I became addicted to the spray, Nicorette Quickmist. It was so easy to use and I so enjoyed those 'puffs' of 1mg nicotine with that sweet menthol burning sensation in my mouth. I couldn't go 15 min without it, and I couldn't imagine my life without it.

This is it! Week 9! 1 down, 2 to go!
Running has turned from a chore into an
addiction
and now I’m where I am, I won’t just give it up. Onwards and upwards! To those just starting out, or finding it hard... keep at it. Keep finding the time. Keep putting the trainers on. Keep going out of the door. It soon becomes a habit.

My mother doesn't understand my anxiety and depression
I am currently in recovery from
addiction
and honestly, everyday is a struggle. My
addiction
began when I realized that when I did drugs it made me feel better. I'm having a hard time dealing with a mother that doesn't and honestly, doesn't care to understand how I feel on a daily basis.

Still waiting...
So here I am on week 8 and I'm still waiting for that endorphin high, the '
addiction
' to running. Any clues on when it might happen, what I'm waiting for? I run because I need to do exercise, it's like taking medicine, not enjoyable, but needs to be done. Maybe if/when I lose a stone or two?

This is my first post.. thanks for listening
I’ve been sober from alcohol for 19 months and this past week it’s been very clear to me that social anxiety was the cornerstone of my
addiction
... it’s keeping me back from every aspect of my life.. I finally started dating in sobriety and I can’t believe the fear and anxiety this has aroused.

Fearing the anxiety of the week...
Just don’t want to deal with
addiction
problems down the line. Does anyone have suggestions on coping strategies for anxiety? I am trying to not dwell and live in my the present and not the past, but boy is it a challenge.

Massive anxiety
I want to binge eat, as it is my destructive
addiction
. But I notice the more I face my mental home movies, the less the food can jam the projector (or, in more modern times, switch apps or hit ESCAPE!) So instead of eating I am writing.

The thrill of the chase.
This is one
addiction
, which I hope to continue for many years and I intend also to spread the word to as many people as I can. Please keep spreading the word to your friends and acquaintances.

Tell me to get a grip you lovely (bossy I hope) lot!
Or am I being an idiot (it’s ok, tell me if I am) and paying too much attention to stats at this fledgling stage of my new found running
addiction
? I’ve found out I’m competitive with myself, clearly. Rant over - tell me off, please! I can take it ......... 😅

What I strongly suggest for those who don't like prescription medicine like Benzodiazapines.
I would suggest getting a hold of some Magnolia Bark Extract 90+% honokiol(98% the best), it acts very similar to a Benzo without: severe sleepiness, amnesia,
addiction
/tolerance, withdraw, or super muscle relaxation( you know what I mean if you've had a benzo feels like you weigh a ton and your muscles

RLS for almost 40 years:(!
My trialed me on so many controlled meds that if I wasn’t a nurse and new the potential of
addiction
, I would probably be living on a street corner looking for a fix.

My Addiction
In order to move past our
addiction
, we have to figure out what we are trying to use our
addiction
to get away from and what needs we are trying to use our
addiction
to meet.
Addiction
cannot be cured if the fear of consuming is greater than the will power to quit using.

Magnesium Glycinate
But I've been concerned about taking the hydrocodone (aka vicodin) because of the
addiction
potential. If in fact it's the magnesium glycinate that's working, it's a wonderful godsend!! Note, it MUST be the glycinate form, not the oxide form.
