A huge struggle of my addiction has been that after I relapse I am incredibly hard on myself, as some sort of punishment. I’ve realized this isn’t productive because it makes me have even less self confidence, and it makes the issue seem bigger. When it comes down to it, it’s just a choice we make or don’t make. We don’t need to label it as bad or good, it’s just a choice. The choice you make may move you closer of further to your goals, but don’t make it bigger than a simple choice or you will never feel like you stand a chance. But you do, it’s as simple (not necessarily as easy) as choosing to get up for work in the morning. It takes some discipline and some discomfort but it’s still just a choice. Even if you make the choice you don’t want to make, who cares, just restart and keep choosing

I am the same way. The feeling of doom after relapsing is very intense. When we pair that with self hatred it can be brutal. Thanks for sharing brother 🙏
