This has been one of those days. I couldn't get to sleep last night, I laid down and tried to sleep and it just didn't happen, just thinking about everything. Got to sleep about five am.

I had dreams all morning about mostly being powerless over this addiction and being caught up in some very vivid and weird situations. I must have woke up and went back to sleep with the same dreams about five times.

 I awoke in "That Mood" one hundred percent early this afternoon . I laid there and would not myself move a muscle until I prayed and thought out everything and I could smile to myself and repeat these word to the evil one several times "Nice Try"

I am wiped out and didn't get a thing done today, but I also didn't give in to my addiction either.:D

I leave for work in half an hour and it will be all good after that. I will be too busy for awhile and be able to give my mind a  rest as I concentrate on work for a bit.

I am very happy and thankful right now, today is the hardest day so far. I know it all triggers today from the fact I am praying on some directions to take and the old self is really fighting it right now, but He is faithful!

God Bless

APR,

Congratulations! Sometimes we just have to white-knuckle it through. I came across this website some time ago. The author is a strong Christian guy, who recommends a form of Biblical meditation. It has helped me through some sleeplessness and given me a peace I haven't had before. You may find it useful for those tough nights.

Thanks!

I'll look into it. I'm heading off to bed, wiped out from today and looking forward to sleep tonight.

God Bless
