Focus points only last so long.

Imagine, something has occurred. It's not good, it hurts you, you want to escape it. You find a distraction don't you. Pick something you can put all your time into, stop your mind slipping. It works and time slips by, but you get close to passing your focus, achieving it. What then? Risk a relapse, pick a new one. You can't hide forever, and a relapse could break you. As human, you can't fix something alone. No-one can, not me, you, anyone. As human, we have each other. There is the secret. We need people who care to support us. Help us away from our troubles. Someone else can sooth wounds with kind words, can steel hearts with hard truth. Or they can simply slot themselves in a fill the hole. It all works best when all 3 come together. Hard truth I can do. he wound, I can do. However, I can't fill the hole left. There is the risk of relapse. No matter how healed the wound or steeled the heart. That hole can undermine it all, and it has before.

For now I'm on my own.
