Hi Chaycups,

A lot of times addictions are the mind’s way of feeling good, because it is unable to feel safe. And your feelings of shame indicate that your mind is not feeling safe, on a subconscious level. Why do you have these feelings of shame? What is it that you are ashamed of, and why?

Asking questions like this and being very curious with your mind can help you unravel the misunderstandings (and yes, anything that leads to shame is a misunderstanding!) that you are having about yourself.
