If you're thinking, feeling, or acting in a way that you wish you could change, but you can't seem to do it, that's something where we can help. We can help you feel and do better naturally.
It's not a personality thing at all. I mean, there's the myth of the addictive personality. People say, well, I like to drink and smoke and gamble, or I am obsessive about watching some show on Netflix. I have an addictive personality. That's not true at all.

So for example, people who have addictions, and I'll use that word very broadly, what we call bad habit or emotionally compulsive habit, or behavior is usually driven from an uncomfortable emotional state.

Can you give a little more color on what you're thinking in that regard? I have an idea, but I don't want to guess. Why would someone think their whole life would unravel?
