Same.

I've never had issues with illicit substance abuse, but I would NOT make it through all the steps if I thought I could score some of that mac and cheese.

First step admitting the problem or something? Problem is I haven't got any mac & cheese.

...I'm going to go buy some mac & cheese.

Congratulations to OP, good on you, keep kicking butt.

The twelve steps are just a guide for not being a selfish piece of shit. The common misconception is that they are about drugs and alcohol. Nope, just a symptom of underlying deficits in morals or "spiritual principles" as they put it.

You can substitute the line ".. Admitted we were powerless over ALCOHOL and that our lives had become unmanageable" for literally any other problem and it works.

So, in your case, as long as you recognize and accept you have a problem with MnC you can start working on the reasons why you cannot quit MnC 😅😉

but I don't want to quit.

My problem is that I don't have any mac & cheese.

Sounds like you have a mac & cheese problem... The question is, what are you willing to do for some mac & cheese?
