Cycle of Addiction

To interrupt the cycle break in at any point - Break all parts to succeed.

1. Fantasy - Examine your thoughts, take them captive, don't let them control you!

2. Ritual - Understand your rituals, expose them to the light.
                 Set up accountability partners to help you break the cycle and keep it broken.
                 Burn bridges and change patterns.

3. Despair - Interrupt the lie of hopelessness and helplessness.

4. Behavior - What need are you trying to meet - significance, escape, belonging?
                      Don't use illegitimate means to meet legitimate needs.
