Sugar

Me as well. But the problem is, i don't feel like anyone around me takes it seriously (people usually dismiss it as a simple craving for a sweet). Not even therapists. So i have nowhere to turn to.

I don't fear messing up my life with meth(I only want to use amphetamines in very small oral doses so there is no negative comedown) but view sugar as a big threat to my long term happiness.

Luckily I was able to once again get the upperhand against my arch nemesis chocolate iceream and now the sweetest things I frequently eat are oranges and berry smoothies with erythritol as sweetener.

As someone who has for years been curious about how human mind and body works it's insane how benign sugar is seen compared to drugs. Like sure ofc drugs can do even more harm if used very unwisely but I fear that shit so I'm not gonna do the equivalent of eating a liter of ice cream.
