    So you swapped one crutch for another. You went from a chemical crutch to a delusion crutch. Better than eating weeds is to go and help someone. A real person. Not one in your head.

    Isn’t this what I do WAY too much of… believing I am somehow meeting God’s need? Thanks for this sobering reminder that I NEED GOD.
