Bit of a personal reflection for myself. Had a close call this morning but managed to pull myself together, get up and shower it off. Staying off all my devices until my work hours start and just playing cards with myself because my mind feels like it’s in a very iffy state of trying to convince myself it’s okay because it’s “been so long”. Reminder to all that it’s all a trap! The fact that I still need to resist like this and can have close calls is a sign I’m not healed yet and that I must keep going. In the end this short term satisfaction won’t even be remembered. But you know what will be? Every effort I put in to get out of this hell loop. Good luck to you all, we got this!
Yea you’re right. Every temptation we let go of is a big and great step in the right direction no matter how many times we have fallen. It is a muscle that needs to exercised regularly so it is second nature to us to not entertain these temptations.
