Day 70: Secret Addictions - Do You Have One?

Do you have a secret addiction? Many of us have or have had secret addictions, for example drugs and porn. I met a guy that was playing the drum near where I live and we would meet regularly to play together - me playing the guitar. After a while he introduced me to a friend of his that plays the guitar, and we would meet up at times to play - very cool because he knows guitar more than I do and I learn with him. So this individual recently opened up and revealed to me that he has an addiction to the drug Speed, and that he never plays the guitar without having taken it.

Who would have known? I didn't see it coming. This individual shared with me that he never thought that he would end up addicted to it, and it is true, what at one point of our lives we say we'd never do we can end up doing - interesting.

Many of us have addictions and this doesn't make us any better than a drug addict - or any worse, it is simply that at one point of our lives we are addicted. We can be addicted to thinking, coffee, cigarrettes, shopping, arguing, medication etc. We are most of the time poly-addicts in fact.

It is time to stop our addictions.

Solutions

To stop your addictions one can do the 21 days to freedom, which consists of stopping the addiction for 21 days and then you are free. If you 'fall' back to the addiction, you start counting again 21 days, until you make it.



Try it out, it is worth your while.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to become poly addict.

I forgive myself that I have acccepted and allowed myself to fear others knowing about my addiction.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to feel inferior because I have an addiction.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I cannot stop my addictions.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that addiction is more powerful than I am.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to hold on to my addiction, in fear I'll lose something if I stop.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe I get something out of my addictions.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not see that I am stronger than my addictions.

I commit myself to stop my addictions.

I commit myself to remind myself that I am stronger than my addictions.
