Thanks for posting this. It's a good way to think about dealing with urges. We learned a little bit about urge surfing in one of the rehabs I was in. And I did a lot of mindfullness meditation in another treatment centre and when I was in the psych hospital.

I find it helps me to remember that an urge is just an urge that I don't have to act on, and that I've lived through urges in the past and can manage this one.
