Sugar is a drug

I was really craving something sweet today evening. It was a painful waiting out the craving for 3 to 4 hours. I do not keep sugar in my condo. I moved all the preserves to my sibling's place. That is good. I had no access to it when I crave it. Sugar and high fructose corn syrup has made its way into everything. I went out to buy some organic and local vegetables. As I was checking out and paying with cash, I saw all the chocolate cookies made with butter lined up. They are now even in giant vending machines everywhere. I went and bought some 'decent' office casual type of clothes because my dad keeps complaining that I do not dress appropriately when I am not working (off-hours/my time). I like wearing yoga pants and active wear all the time because I run and walk. There was a donut shop right next door with flavors like blueberry lemon. I stared at it, but did not buy any.
I treat myself to sugar less often. I trying to cut off completely. It is difficult. In my mind sugar is like cocaine or fentanyl or ketamine or heroine. When my sugar craving gets real bad, I eat fruit like apple or banana.
