[tip] how I deal with cravings...
Hey All,
This may not be a huge revelation but it was kind of an “ah-ha” moment for me that has helped a lot, so wanted to share.
My fiancé and I were recently watching an old episode of “Naked and Afraid” and the contestant was a rehab counselor/former addict. When things were at their worst, he said he’d handle the hunger/misery the same we he handles sobriety - he’d just ask himself if he could wait one more hour before giving up. And if he couldn’t do that, he’d ask if he could wait one more minute, rinse, repeat.
While his situation was obviously different, asking myself in the throes of a craving if I can wait five more minutes has helped me avoid caving more often than not. I think it will make a big difference over a long enough timeline!
Hope it helps you all too!
