Rule 91: Coffee… with you I’m bright and anxious, without you I’m sluggish and calm… what a predicament…

by Austin Alexander | Apr 1, 2016 | Anxiety, body, Vice

In the past 6 months or so, I realized that I had a slight issue with drinking too much coffee. My girlfriend pointed out that she thought I might be overstimulating myself. My response was, “What are you talking about? I only have like 6 cups a day or so…that’s...

Rule 90: Red Meat, my morally ambiguous delicious conundrum… I have to take a break every now and then.

I have always struggled with my weight since I was a kid. I’ve gone through my stages of being various forms of “in shape”, but it has never been an easy thing for me to maintain. I have never known the struggle of being too skinny. I have only known...

Rule 72: You don’t NEED a cigarette… find another form of relief.

by Austin Alexander | Mar 11, 2016 | Anxiety, body, Habit, unhealthy, Vice
