I love how hearing something at a meeting can spark something in my own head. Last night the speaker and another person sharing talked about how once they put down their binge/trigger foods (my substance of choice,) all the feelings they'd ever had in their entire life came crashing down on them at once. After that happened, one woman said the thought came to her that "[eating] this will make me feel better."

The spark in my head said, "it won't make you feel better, it'll make you feel LESS."

Something important for me to remember on days when I struggle. Thanks for "listening."
