What are your addictions

Caffeine. In a big way. A long time ago when I was in the army I smoked for about a year and a half. I also dipped tobacco for a couple of years. I’m glad those addictions are over. I was also addicted to exercise a long time ago, but I got over that too.

I had a bad crack habit in the late 80’s for four years. I got clean and sober in 1990 by joining AA, CA, and NA. I haven’t touched drugs or alcohol since then. I guess you could say I’m addicted to being clean.

Opiates, cigarettes, and video games. I stay away from the opiates these days. Cigarettes and video games, not so much.

Vaping (nicotine). Sometimes I get a little bit addicted to a game but I’m glad when I do cause it I means I’m enjoying something.

Want to cut down on the vaping though, it is still a monthly bill… saves money yet a monthly bill.

Information. I have to constantly be exploring or learning about or how to do something. This is how I learned to cope with my scz and all of the things that fell apart in my life. It empowered me as you would expect, and so it is who I am now.

Good addiction, right?

the best thing ive found to help with it is to find distractions. whenever i thought of cutting i would put myself in a position where i simply cannot. it also helps that all the blades in the house got too dull to use…so thats something
