    Which addiction?

    For Adderall, Vyvanse, Dabs, Alcohol, Benzodiazepines, and meth I went to rehab and learned why I used the dopamine inducing substances, to really get to the root of the problem. Honestly it’s been a world of difference and if anyone is struggling feel free to reach out. Childhood trauma is a bitch.

    For vaping I am currently using nicorette until I run out and then it’s cold turkey!

    For energy drinks I looked up how bad they were for the body and heart specifically every time I wanted one.

    The biggest thing for me that has helped is getting the idea in your head that you’re not currently “quitting” but instead you’ve already “quit”. It’s more of a finality of a statement and helps reinforce no relapse. That doesn’t mean you won’t ever go back in a moment of weakness, however. What’s important is to not turn a lapse of willpower into a total relapse.
