All I have are my addictions.
Alcohol which I am trying to abstain....day 2 down.
Food (gained 50 pounds in 4 years)
starting low carb dieting again,
which works when I don't drink, I lose weight.
Internet....This is the most addicting activity that I do.
It is where I get support and give support.
Even so, I call it mental masterbation.
It is very satisfying. Instant gratification stuff, limbic stuff.
Take these away and I am a ghost.
I don't know how to be comfortable in my own skin...
what does that even mean?
Oh and I have bipolar 1 to throw in there.
I am on lots of meds to stay sane.
Thank you for hanging with me.
