HERE'S A TIP
YOU ARE NOT ONLY ADDICTED TO YOUR SPECIFIC ADDICTION. YOU HAVE ALSO BUILT A PSYCHOLOGICAL ASSOCIATION WITH ALL ACCOMPANYING PHENOMENON THAT CAN TRIGGER AND INTENSIFY YOUR ADDICTION. IF YOU SMOKE WHEN YOU EAT LUNCH, EATING LUNCH CAN PRODUCE AN INTENSE CRAVING TO SMOKE. NOW THAT MIGHT SOUND OBVIOUS BUT HERE'S THE KICKER:
IF YOU ARE ALWAYS TRYING NOT TO JERK OFF/WATCH PORN BUT SUCCUMB ANYWAYS, THEN TRYING NOT TO AND FAILING BECOMES PART OF THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE THAT YOU ARE ADDICTED TO.
IN SHORT: CONSISTENTLY TRYING AND FAILING TO STOP AN ADDICTIVE BEHAVIOR STRENGTHENS THE ADDICTION AND CAN BECOME ITS OWN SUB-ADDICTION.
