Imaginations can be seriously tricky things, but also helpful and amazing. They can help create genius or really wreck you. Most imaginations help create others can control. You can go from creating and giving up an alternate universe to that little craving to always run back to it. Do you give in?
It's a difficult decision. If you decide to give in it could seem odd and you stop right away. There is however a large chance you could get sucked back into your old habits. If you do do you let it control you? Do you? There is always an easy way to step if you do let it control you. Put some music on, write a story, read, or spend time with friends and family. Find something productive!
Giving up on letting something in your imagination control you is just like breaking any other addiction. It's going to be hard and take a long time and steady self control, but it's possible if you're willing. Relapse happens. That itch, that craving will come back. It's up to you to not give in. Don't let it become you. Rediscover yourself. Rediscover things you like. Finding yourself without your addiction and that control that you didn't have over yourself can build your self confidence, and who knows maybe you might like the you without the addiction. The real you.
Be positive, patient, and persistent! -Lauren
