I am learning that lesson. To avoid the things that trigger my addiction. I made a few mistakes this winter and ended up in situations I knew I should not have been in. Although I can say that I got out of those situations as soon ast possible. But I should have stayed out in the first place knowing it was a bad place for me to be.
I have learned to avoid love stories in the movies. They trigger me big time. Especially the romantic comedies. I did go see No Strings Attached a few nights ago. Knew it was a mistake. But I knew ahead of time I would be triggered and avoided acting out or letting it get to me. Plus it was such a bad movie that I never really believed anything that happened or didnt 'buy into it'.
It was about how a FWB would not work. But then in the end it worked?! And you could just see how sick these two people are. Her for how emotionally unavailable she is and him for seeing how sick she was yet going back to her. Plus her character flopped back and forth and the audience could never form a solid opinion about her. I should have just stuck with my first choice, The kings Speech.
Anyhow back to my subject....avoiding triggers. I am learning that music too can be triggering. Knowing ahead of time makes all the difference in the world.
Healing has come to a point that I am really enjoying it and learning and making life so much better for me. I hope this can be of help to others.
