Dallas Bragg, a chemsex recovery coach, explains why he uses meal delivery instead of choosing food himself. Removing the decision eliminates temptation during early recovery when willpower is limited. He designs life systems and boundaries to fill danger zones like Friday nights so he isn't faced with a choice between using or not using.
So there's a reason I use Factor meals. This is not a commercial for Factor, but there's a reason I either meal prep or I have my meals delivered, and that's because I don't want the space to be able to choose what I eat. Because I know myself, and I know if I have an option to choose, I'm going to choose DoorDash. I'm going to order some shit food. This is the way you want to set up your chemsex recovery. My name is Dallas. I'm a chemsex recovery coach helping men who have sex with men. In early recovery, you want to set up your life with a system that does not allow space for choice. You don't want to be presented with the option to use or not use, because if you do have that choice, Then you're leaving too much space open. A Friday night open, a weekend open, a holiday open. Whenever your danger zone is, if you don't proactively fill that space in, then you're going to be left with a choice. And in early recovery, willpower, self-control are very finite resources that run out really fast. And if it's Friday night and it's 10 PM and you're feeling lonely, Horny, tired, etc., etc., emotionally exhausted, or you've had a great week. All of that puts you in a position— if you don't have the safeguards in place, the boundaries in place, then you're going to have to choose, do I want to use or not use? You're going to choose to use almost every time in early— in, in early recovery. So you want the path of least resistance. Like for me, this is the path of least resistance. I, I— it's there for me. I don't have to choose. I get the right nutrients and the right macros for what I want. That is how you want to set up your recovery. If you want help with this, comment the word group below.
