That's the other issue. Any addiction NEVER goes away. Every day one has to consider all the positive coping skills. A schedule for the first year can help, but don't forget that it, any addiction, will lerk around the corner, just waiting for us to forget, become complacent, and not focus on our recovery, just to trip us up and get is back in addition.

Once an addict, always an addict, but one can become smart ***** and out smart the addiction!!
