Words of a person who has tried to stop repeating the same negative behavior over and over again, but keeps failing. It's when your girlfriend, husband, child, friend, or whoever finally says "I've had enough of you doing this, I'm leaving". You've said to yourself 1000 times, "that's the last time I'm doing that, I quit", but you don't quit, because you can't do it on your own power.
This is the cycle of chronic addictive behaviors, compulsive disorders, and the subsequent destruction of perfectly good relationships. So what's the common theme in all this? It's the recipe of denial that anything is wrong. It's the words "There's nothing wrong, I just can't stop, that's all". It's all a lie that we tell ourselves and others, in order to cover up deep seated embarassing hurts from our past.
Self-Help groups like Celebrate Recovery & Life's Healing Choices provide a safe place where we can listen to others open up about their problems and we can watch them heal. We can too, if we want to. So . . . what about you?
