Day 21
I've made it to three weeks I had a much less disturbed night's sleep, no bad dreams and woke up feeling a bit more together.
It's been quite a useful process to give up Facebook and other social media as part of this reboot. It's helped concentrate my mind on the important things in my life: God, my marriage, my family, my job. I spend far too much of my time indulging my need to be validated, and I know that this isn't healthy! I don't need to prove myself; I am loved as I am.
I keep thinking about my reboot in terms of rocket launching. At some stage I hope to be free from the gravitational pull of addiction, but I know that in the meantime it continues to take effort to flee from the things that have chained me. I continue to fight.
