What is your addiction that you are battling with?

Hello coffee lovers, Today’s conversation is about to get a little deep,so I suggest you might want to get your best kind of latte or something a bit stronger. As you know we all have struggles that we keep to ourselves or at least try to. I am here to talk about one of my struggles and maybe you can talk about yours if you feel comfortable enough to do so. If it helps you don’t have to leave your name. I am a woman who had many struggles throughout my life. But I have one that keeps on occurring and it's hard for me to overcome. It's the need to please everyone else before myself. Now you may think that's a small problem but it can become bad. Depending on the situation you are saying yes or helping people out that can land you in places that you never thought you would be. I am the friend they call no matter how bad it is they call me. It can be a good thing but it can also be bad. This time around in my new chapter of life I am trying to stop it just a bit and try to be as nice as I can by letting them down. But there is a part of me that feels bad when telling someone I will not do that, or i can’t do that. Now there are worse addictions out there like staying in an abusive relationship because you think that's what you deserve. Or addictions like alcohol and drowning your stress in a bottle. There are so many ways you can have an addiction and not even know it. Like think about this if you drink coffee when you don’t need it buy it just because it is there then you could be addicted to coffee.

Don’t be ashamed of your addiction but try and help yourself or get help. Easy to help yourself: A)You can look for a treatment centers B)Prefer to speak with someone on the phone, you can call the helpline and get some advice on how to proceed with whatever addiction you may have : 1-800-662-HELP (4357). C) Look for a friend you can rely on that will keep you down the right path. D) Find a family member who will check on you from time to time,just in case. It is definitely hard to watch a loved one suffer from addictions no matter which one, especially when they deny there’s a problem or refuse to get help. No matter what one may be facing, let them know they are not alone and that's what they need most of the time is not to feel alone. As for the minor addictions, just believe you can get in the habit of saying or questioning “Do i need to say “yes, i’ll do it? Or “Do I need this coffee,or this kind of trouble?” Also if you can Be aware there is a deeper issue, maybe things about where the addiction is coming from and why. Try to aknowgle you have a deeper issue for your addiction. I can tell you mine, since I had such a hard past, I tend to please people so i won’t be left alone or forgotten about. Am i working in it yes,is it hard, yes , can it be aacopliched i hope. And that all I can do ist keep trying my best to be my best. I know this was maybe covestain that made you feel things but you can be yourself and feel like yourself here no one will judge you. Unless you order a decaf..joking until next time see you Lattee! #addictions #coffeelovers #yourlife #deeperissues #Latte #decaf #habits
