Clean Thoughts

Thoughts are sticky. When you have a thought you don’t want, you might try to think about something else to avoid it. But only notice that the thought you didn’t want sticks around longer. It’s like if you to set a timer for one minute and tell yourself to NOT think about an elephant. You’re gonna think about that elephant. You can’t help it, your brain just does this naturally. The answer? Accepting the thought. “I’m having this dirty thought about xyz, and it feels like I might relapse, but that’s okay. I could, and I might, I’m not going to, but I’m alright with that.”

I started reading the Bible. If you’re a believer it helps. Kind of hard to think like that when you’re reading the word of god haha

That’s a really good tip I’m going to implement it into my life Never thought about doing that for some reason

The moment I get an urge I instantly leave my room and place my phone out of reach and I go do something that takes my mind off of it.
