Sounds like you’ve developed enough self-awareness to know your limits — to be able to play the tape through and go, fuck that — not a good idea! To me, that's the hardest part, so huge kudos to you for that! Thanks for your response! Also, with regards to the comparison to sugar etc, it's more about the powerlessness that addiction brings in any category (gambling, sex, sugar) than it is about the destructive nature of it, that I was referring to here. However, I do think over addictions can be just as destructive, just in different ways. Thanks again for the response!
