silentbattle Current streak: 1628 days OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 3734 Karma: 15	Very true...thank you for reminding me of that! The last few days, I've been having a very strong urge to "self-medicate." Today, I just calmly faced the urge and said, "I realize that I have this desire, but that doesn't mean I have to act on it. The desire isn't me."

silentbattle Current streak: 1628 days OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 3734 Karma: 15	Thanks, Sci! The urges are continuing. I'm looking at my last post - need to remember to keep saying that. When the disease tells me how great it will be to give in, how I need to - it's simply not true. I also need to realize that the urges are coming from the added stress in my life. I think that starting to exercise regularly will help a little bit. I just need to stop being lazy!

sci1977 Current streak: 438 days OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 895 Karma: 0	I was thinking about your comment that you didn't have to act on it. I think that is a great comment. it's like you know you don't want to act out, but reminding yourself not to is inspiring. Thanks for the words.

silentbattle Current streak: 1628 days OFFLINE Platinum Boarder Posts: 3734 Karma: 15	7up: :D I only aim it away from people - just like soda bottles, when opening. Sci - exactly. We know, deep down that it's not something we want to do, but remembering that all the time can be difficult.
