*sigh* accepting your flaws. Once that has been established, KNOW FOR YOURSELF, what's good and bad for, elaborate YOU. Because MEMORIZING, is one thing. KNOWING...

That's a whole different story

Go on with the instinct you have harwired into ya, it helps.Trust it more often.you will see it'll change ya for the better things this world has to offer

Right? Or maybe we perceive certain parts of ourselves as flaws when maybe they aren't?

Maybe.. but the thing is to take things into moderation and also as long NO ONE, is hurt, not even yourself

Exactly. That is where people struggle. Trying to take (insert vice or addiction here) into moderation. Alcoholics for example, once they have detoxed and gotten on the wagon can't really go out and just have a couple of drinks because they will spiral back into being an alcoholic. Other people may be able to do their "thing" in moderation once they take the proper steps to regain control. For those who struggle with that it's a really difficult thing not to go all in every time. So that was why I posed the question "Where do you break the cycle?"

I think you are giving some very good insight here. The reason this stream was created was so people could hopefully begin to find their way out if they are struggling with any thing. We will call it self medication. So everything you are saying here is out there, and you just may really help someone.

Yeah. And that is my intention. True happiness and self fulfillment would make the world go round
and hOh, don't think he thinking I'm the happiest person alive. In fact, I might actually have an addiction myself.. it's um, "hoo haa-ing". And have since a very... young age..
It ain't healthy doing to do every often! Sickening! Even if I'm not in direct contact dude, it's like I become a total different person when the "need" rises :-(

Not sure what "hoo haa-ing" is. Never heard of it. Though I could venture a guess.
That is a common problem assuming I'm right. The pleasure centers in the brain are hard to battle. Many of these things to which we become addicted are responsible for the release of "pleasure chemicals" in the brain. So how does a person break free of that?

Strain yourself as much as you can and TO the point of SURPASSING. It will go so far that when ya 'get that thing' (depending on your addiction) ya will feel as if the sensation of needing slowly drifts away.

Think of eating too much candy for example and you got reeeeeal sick. By force you stop eating candy because it made you sick, and ya are from it, literally. When whole and behold comes the day ya want that saviory sweetness again after ya got better, it's good, right?

Until ya got f**ed up that one time lmfao. :/ Not. Fun.

Though, hah, my bf doesn't seem to have a problem with my 'addiction' as I do but I try not implying that I want it "every often". Too much is immoral and, kinda gross me out the more I think about it.. too much.. Espacial of the fact I'm a female...

I don't wanna be rude but what is hoo-haaing?

Talk to your parents about that, buddy

K

stop hating yourself, and the cycle breaks. We hurt ourselves because we hurt, and in return we hurt more. Love yourself Nixie!
