Codependency Support Group
Codependency is defined as someone who exhibits too much, and often inappropriate, caring for another person's struggles. A codependent person may try to change, or feel shame about their most private thoughts and feelings if they conflict with the other person's struggles. If you are on a journey towards self-love, this support group is for you. Join us and find others...
Hi all
well today!!! i have decided to quite smoking cannibis. It has been a regular thing me and my partner do in the evenings, but it has made me more unstable, anxious! do i really want that for myself or life, NO BLOODY WAY! going to take one day a time! i have a plan to give up, i am going to focus more on the positives than negatives, and this is one to stop the weed.
My partner is also doing this with me, but primarily its my responsibility to do this for myself -
i am going to incorporate more yoga and exercise into my life and build my self up that way, i want to be mentally strong - and want to be more clear in my life - and this is a great way to start!
i am fed up of feeling unmotivated, tired, and using this as a pick me up. No wonder i cant feel normal with that in my system.
The worst comes to the worst if my partner cannot quit i will support him the best i can, but if he feels he cannot have a life without it then i have to re-think the relationship and whats best for me!!
xx love u all -

One of the concepts talked about in the book is the concept of a "keystone" habit. The habit that if you could change it, could open you up to changing tons of things in your life. In one of the examples in the book, a woman gave up smoking to go on a trip. Changing that habit allowed her to completely change her life. She got her health under control, she held down a job for over 4 years and still counting, and got her finances under control.
Some of these habits are so ingrained into ourselves that we don't even realize we do them. In fact, in one study they looked at a guy who had serious damage to his memory (anything further out then 20 seconds couldn't be remembered) but was able to leave the house walk around the block and find his way back to his house even though his memory was gone and if asked, he couldn't figure out how to leave the room! Habits are formed at a deep level in the brain.
Not sure if it will apply to you, but it certainly gave me something to think about.
And lastly, good for you. I think setting a meaningful goal for yourself is important. Stick with it! You can do it!!
