When you have notable low frustration tolerance, you decide that you simply cannot bear discomfort. In the short run giving up alcohol or almost any addiction leads to more discomfort. LFT is usually the main reason that you fail to stop your addictions. You believe it’s too much of an effort. You stubbornly refuse to be uncomfortable right now, and thereby give yourself much more discomfort and lack of satisfaction in the future.
