The only thing that makes me feel alive anymore is noticing a bust in the materials while on a call with a client and hoping they don't notice it

I keep on trying to sneak more and more busts into a deck to chase the high sometimes they are caught before getting to the client but have been able to get some through. I am worried that I am risking my career if a bigger bust actually gets through. How do I stop?
