It may seem now that times are more uncertain than others, but let us come to understand that uncertainty is something that has always been with us, and always will be.

The need to know what is round the corner... in prehistoric times it was necessary for us to know what the rustling behind the bushes was, for it could have been a tiger, waiting to pounce and kill.

Perhaps this is where we developed our ''need for certainty''. It comes from survival instinct, however now... we do not live in such a world wear our lives are at threat so often. We have the luxury of such safety, what a blessing.

It is important for us to consider, that we are in fact safe, and when we feel threatened by uncertainty to remember and realise there is no immediate threat to our safety.

The challenge of addiction arises when we find ourselves 'compelled' to create a sense of certainty within our days. When there is uncertainty, time unallocated, or outcomes unknown, many of us find ourselves feeling very uncomfortable.

This discomfort can be felt and soothed through internal means such as meditation/mindfulness/journalling, or an external attempt to soothe, through eating, checking, reaching for comforting substances or more.

Such external approaches to soothing our discomfort are short-lived, and only provide a temporary, illusory sense of safety and certainty.

Thus... the habit of addiction begins, until we decide to face what is really going on...

Control over Uncertainty never existed, and it never will...
