In fact, she did all kinds of activities in order to distract herself from her feelings:drugsdrinkingrunningeatingShe freely admits that she had lots of distractive habits. The trigger was a traumatic experience that she had when she was a teenager, but she didn't know that at the time.She first drank alcohol socially, but it soon turned to drinking for comfort. Then came emotional eating.Lynn Louise tried therapy, but she always went back to her habits that gave her comfort.She was in her late 40s when she became aware that she was doing those distracting behaviours and habits for the "wrong" reasons. She says that she would run or eat in order to avoid feeling her feelings.From the outside, she had it all. Everything was great. But she was trying to find external solutions to internal problems. She felt overwhelmed, depressed, alone... like an imposter in her own life.Listen to Lynn Louise's candid and inspiring story of how she overcame that cycle of compulsive behaviours and how she helps other women get unstuck too.Find Lynn Louise here: https://www.facebook.com/thecosmicvalkyrieTo get more energy with less sugar, download your simple guide here: https://aftersugarclub.com/energy-guide/And to get all the support and accountability you need to break free from sugar for good, join us in the After Sugar Club: https://aftersugarclub.com/asc1/
