    Just wanted to share this with you folks, it struck a chord with me even though it's about another type of addiction but I can still relate plenty. Link

    Best quotables:
    "For addicts, discipline isn’t something to strive for each new year; it’s necessary for every moment."

    "No, in order to kick it, I had to replace the cravings for drugs or alcohol with a craving to be a better person."

    "I’ve learned that when people congratulate me, that’s when I focus on my flaws."

    "After years of therapy, I had learned not to beat up on myself. I remembered that relapse is a part of recovery."
