What does it mean to go beyond unhealthy addictions? For me, it started with ending the need to escape. I used to be a daily smoker and chased reality-altering experiences just to feel okay. Now, I’m first adjusting my vitamins to fill deficits and removing preservatives and overtly unhealthy foods from my diet. I don’t know if this will help, but I hope it will. Beyond diet, simply ending the addiction allowed me to leave the house more, and my activity consistently went up. Even when I feel weak, I have more control of my mind and desires than I did a few years ago. I no longer want to be the calmest person people know, nor someone trying to inject energy into every situation—I want to embody the passions that make life meaningful to me. That is my goal: to enable doing better what I find meaningful. That doesn’t mean pretending to not feel or believe things—one should strongly express belief with a willingness to change. It just means tuning life and intention to match dream state with reality.

I’m writing this as a checkpoint—a reminder of why this shift matters, in case I lose sight. Most things can be figured out with time, and sometimes, when the mind struggles, the body leads.

"I want to embody the passions that make life meaningful to me" - how awesome that goal sounds!

i’m still indulging my unhealthy addiction (trading) only cause i have a target i need to achieve (at least that’s why i tell myself) even though it’s slowly ruining my life. but the upside is i have a deadline and if i don’t achieve why i need to by then i’ll stop (hopefully)

I honestly think most of these little steps we take to make our lives better will show it's benefits in a very long time, maybe when we're old or something

Do you know why you sought out reality altering experiences? For me, it was a lack of pursuing something meaningful or mission driven Once you have a clear goal the desire to escape is a distraction and easier to quit

You should connect with simonapop, who said: 'Practicing being radically aware of who is in the driver’s seat of your life at every moment vs slipping into unconscious autopilot is one of the most important exercises you’ll do for yourself and others.' Join the conversation in the /therapy channel.
