Sitting with an urge.
Day 17

So I’m trying this thing where I don’t fight the urge when it hits. I acknowledge it, call it what it is, and see if I can figure out why I’m feeling it. And when I do that, it loses all its power. It’s like a beach ball - when I fight to push it under, it just pops up again with a lot of force. When I just call it what it is and let it go, it just drifts away on its own.
