Living Scared

You know what’s scary?? I’m gonna paint you a picture…I compare my addiction to this demon that’s still inside of me. Even though I have the control, finally. But still somewhere deep in my core, it lives. I picture it looking similar to something like a devil dog, black huge evil with thick chains around it’s neck unable to break loose. It paces, round & round in circles over and over waiting for me to slip and let it out. 8 months its been growing and growing and growing. Its angry I no longer feed it’s need for drugs and somehow someway the chain is gonna break…and idk what to do about that… Stay :muscle:

Interesting. Since you have this imagery, perhaps you can use imagery to suppress the urge. Maybe picture the devil dog morphing into a Chihuahua that can easily be controlled, or something similar. I’ve heard of people doing that and it being helpful.

That’s a good idea I think can work

Sounds like a good start for AVRT type recovery.

Demonize the addictive voice. Understand it’s the voice telling you to do these things and not yourself.
