As I smoke a cig, drink a Diet Dr Pepper and eat chocolate? Sure, I'll take it.
Actually, all of us types have an emptyness, the Black Hole in the Soul. Most everything we do is trying to comfort that pain and we switch addictions like Warren Beatty used to switch partners.
In the end, as Peter said so well, we have to come to terms with ourselves somehow through honesty. I've been there before for short periods but I'm not even aiming at perfection anymore. I've found I'm happy with some of my not so healthy behaviors. I got tired of beating myself up.
