How Fantastic Day Therapy in Spalding can help with bad habits (when willpower isn't working and you're tired of letting yourself down)
There you are, standing in your kitchen at midnight, surrounded by the evidence of your latest "moment of weakness". The cupboard's door's still open, the biscuit packet's mysteriously empty, and you're wondering how on earth you managed to do exactly what you swore you wouldn't. Again.
Or maybe you're staring at your banking app in horror... another late-night "therapy session" with your favourite online retailer that's left your credit card whimpering in the corner. Sure, those four dresses look exactly like the other twelve hanging in your wardrobe with their tags still on, but this time they'll definitely make you feel better... won't they?
Important: If you're here about smoking, serious drinking, drugs, or that cocaine habit you swear is "just for special occasions" (like the day having a Y in it) - I'm not your person.
Smokers love their cigarettes more than they love breathing, heavy drinkers need proper medical support before they even think about therapy, and drug habits need proper medical help.
If you're knocking back bottles rather than glasses, or your weekend powder is becoming a midweek must-have, you need to toddle off to your GP first. Not because I'm judging you, but because science and facts.)
What's your particular flavour of self-sabotage?
The midnight snacker
Burying emotions under cake always works
Needing to investigate the contents of every cupboard between 11PM and 2AM? Obviously, that's when all the best snacking decisions are made.
Whether it's to make yourself feel better, or worse, or something else altogether, that midnight munching is starting to cramp your style, and it's time to do something about it (rather than just replacing the box of biscuits).
The retail therapist
When DPD know your name
Your finger's got a PhD in one-click ordering, and your delivery driver knows your life story. You've got more "treat yourself" parcels than you've had hot dinners.
When your retail therapy tells you need therapy, you need something more than hiding the credit card in the fridge.
The social media detective
"I'm just keeping up with people!"
Three hours deep into stalking your ex-partner's best friend's dog's instagram account, telling yourself that you're just "having a look" and definitely not obsessing.
As if watching Sandra's endless posts about her suspiciously well-behaved children is somehow good for your mental health.

Why most habit-breaking advice is rubbish (from Spalding to San Francisco, some advice is universally useless
-
"Just avoid the triggers"
Brilliant advice, this. Because it's totally possible to avoid being stressed, bored or annoyed by Helen from the school WhatsApp group, isn't it? Might as well suggest you avoid breathing while you're at it. -
"Do something better instead"
Because when you're knee deep in an emotional shopping spree at 2AM, what you really want to do is take up knitting. How's that working out? Got enough half-finished scarves to wrap around the equator yet? -
"Focus on the negative"
Because nothing helps break a habit like a healthy dose of self-loathing and shame, right? While you're at it, why not just sellotape a list of failures to your forehead?
