Will I ever stop without feeling disgusted with myself.

Yes, and the turning point is selfcompassion, not control. The disgust you feel is rooted in shame narratives, unresolved trauma, and unrealistic expectations of perfection. Trying to stop through sheer willpower only intensifies the shame cycle: resist → slip → disgust → shame → repeat.

Freedom emerges when you shift from punishment to understanding. When you learn why the behavior exists, what emotions drive it, and what needs it’s covering, you stop fighting yourself and start healing yourself. That’s when disgust begins to fade.

You will stop—not when you hate the behavior, but when you no longer need it. That happens when emotional regulation strengthens, trauma heals, and you build healthier coping strategies.

Disgust is not your destiny. It’s a signpost showing you where healing needs to happen. And with the right tools, that disgust transforms into selfawareness, control, and eventually peace.
