Urges

Do you know when I get the strongest urges to act out? On my way home from work after a long and stressful day. (Like today.) Obviously I haven't acted on them otherwise I wouldn't still be sober. And it doesn't happen after every stressful day, just sometimes. I guess that is one of the major hallmarks of an addiction huh? Always looking for something to distract, take the pain away, or take the focus off of. I am glad that I can recognize it for what it is and not feel the compulsion to act on it. One day at a time.
