There is no doubt
I have an addictive
Personality,
I eat
And I shop
Compulsively,
And I'm certain
I am only
One drink away
From being
An alcoholic.
I live
In a constant state
Of crisis
And I am
Almost completely devoid
Of self-control,
I struggle every minute
To achieve some sense
Of balance
And often despair
Of finding it;
But I soldier on,
Picking myself up
After every fall
And trying,
Trying,
And trying again
To find
My missing peace.

Well done Rebecca!If we are honest it this sounds like the majority of the people on this planet. It hit home for me. A home run for you. Amen and Merry Christmas. Johnboy
