How Do You Manage an Addiction to Something You Can’t Quit Entirely?
Question by Chris H: How do you manage an addiction to something you can’t quit entirely?
I stopped drinking, and smoking crack, and everything else, and its all dandy for 10+ years. But the internet–honest to god, the mental effect is somewhat similar to cocaine. However, I don’t think I can completely quit using the internet. I have to email for work and use some things for work related research. So what do people in OA do–obviously you can’t stop eating, right? Or Sex Addicts–what, you’re going to recover, and so the Mrs. is S.O.L.? How does it work? And if you have any ideas about internet addiction, specifically in using a spiritual program (the 12 steps), that would be wonderful too.
