The feeling better about what we're doing that is wrong is the trap of addiction, and most resolutions are resolving this problem constantly, constantly, constantly thinking someday we'll get better when all we're getting is feeling better about what we're doing. Addiction is a mental problem.
Ever felt like you're stuck in a never-ending loop of trying to feel better about something that's fundamentally wrong? In this episode of 'Mental Obsession Discussion / Emotional Sobriety', We Know Jack dives deep into the mental maze of addiction. This isn't just about substance dependency; it's about the chronic mental habits that keep us trapped.
Jack sheds light on how our attempts to resist our own behaviors only make them persist, leading to a cycle of anxiety, stress, and emotional turmoil. The discussion also covers the concept of emotional sobriety, which isn't a cure for addiction but a way to live a balanced and responsible life. Jack explores how recognizing our negative thought patterns and taking responsibility for our actions can lead to true emotional freedom.
The episode also touches on the spiritual aspects of addiction, emphasizing the importance of clarity and honesty in our journey towards recovery. Whether you're grappling with addiction yourself or supporting someone who is, this episode offers valuable insights into breaking free from the mental traps that hold us back.
