Im suffering big time from addiction at the moment

I was free from addiction for years and years and I'm right in the thick of it now . I'm praying praying and praying and it too overwhelming to my mind and when it comes into my mind I go right back into addiction and it's not just one addiction at the moment it's 2 or 3 .
My f*****g mind is over taken with the addictions at the moment .
Its frightening the way I dive right into addiction .
I just keep on harming myself going back to addictions .
It brings up fierce shame especially being free from addiction for years .

Go to NA every day, and get a sponsor, and drink hot tea all day long. It is something to do and good for you!

I will pray for you too! Don't beat yourself up, just get back on the wagon if you fall off! 🤗 You will be OK!!

@Carazaa it's not drugs at all 😊. I never went near drugs in my life . It's food - vaping and another one . I only smoked weed when I was younger and hot paranoid out of my mind from it . I didnt go near that in 17 years

@riseofthemachine
Got it! That is good news! A sponsor can help though for any addiction.

@Carazaa where are my going wrong ?

@riseofthemachine If you have faith too it works, but really we have to resist temptation daily too. One day at a time! "Resist the devil and he will flee!"

@riseofthemachine We all battle the flesh every day no worries, you will be ok 🤗

@Carazaa Thanks . I like that " he will flee " .
I'm afraid I'll get a nervous breakdown if I resist the temptations but if I keep going the way I'm going I'll end up getting one weather or which

@Carazaa is the flesh the temptations Carazza

Carazaa · F

@riseofthemachine Yes our flesh is a big problem. If we are saved our souls have been redeemed and we are strong, but our flesh is still under the curse of sin and corruption, but will be redeemed when Jesus comes. Then we will have a sinless new resurrected body in heaven. I believe that will be soon, so hang on ..
