So my therapist had me write out a list of what I could lose and what could happen if I chose to pick up again. The idea is to read it every time I have a craving and doing so will create new nuero pathways to think of the bad instead of the instant gratification. It has actually helped A LOT! I don't even need to read the list anymore. Anytime I have a craving I almost instantly think of the things and even mentally add new things and it removes the desire right away. It works for me every time honestly. Please give this a shot. They say in recovery that we have built in forgetters but really it is just the way our brain has rewired our neuro pathways to remember the good instead of going straight to the bad.

I have thought about what will happen if I relapse while writing stuff down makes such a difference.
Thank you, Dan-SoFL.!
