Nicotine currently. I get addicted quite easily. At the moment it's difficult to stop weeding in the garden. Something satisfying about pulling out Dock Leaves. In the past, running, heroin, methamphetamine, cocaine, sugar, video games, phone apps, gambling, sex. Pretty much anything with a short term pay off, I'm helplessly drawn in. Eventually it stops being pleasurable and I unwind it. No point fighting it, better to let it play out.
Stay strong, buddy. Keep replacing those bad addictions with healthy ones. I have a bit of experience with unhealthy addictions myself. Been clean a long time now.
Appreciate your compassion brother. I'm on the mend now, not the sauce XD. Being present in the moment is my new gig.
