In a perfect world

In a perfect world all of my cravings would go away. I am an addict of all things. Heck, this last year I became addicted to quitting. Every day I would quit…and each day I fail which makes me feel weak and the task seems unreachable.
I wish I hated nicotine and beer. I am powerless over carbs. I pray that the desire to overindulgence would go away.
Until then, I will continue to quit and try to better myself each day.

Welcome! :purple_heart: It would be great to be one of those people who could just naturally moderate. For me, cravings for alcohol have decreased dramatically since doing the steps of AA. But I think it is not desire to overindulgence, it is desire to escape. Building a life that you don’t want to escape from is important.

You aren’t weak you’re an addict. Me too. Things got easier for me when I started diving into why I was an addict, and what I’m avoiding with my behaviors. Keep trying.
You don’t fail until you give up.
