Addiction: Is There A Better Way?

The Rollercoaster Of Addiction & Alcoholism

For so long people have lived bound by addiction and/or alcoholism, not knowing that there is another way. Day after day, so many are dependent on a substance to get going, to stay going, and in search for the strength to face the world that is waiting on them. Fear paralyzes even the strongest person’s ability to do what so many believe to be such a simple thing. Not knowing who to ask for advice, not trusting anyone to help them, and uncertain of what life will be like without a substance in it, the addicted person is trapped in a hell like most people are unable to imagine.

This is one way that addiction keeps you trapped where you are. The voices in your head tell you that it is not possible to live without your drug. Negative outlook, feelings of hopelessness, helplessness and being overwhelmed only strengthen the chains that bind this disease. Ideas that changing is too hard, that things will get better if I can only better manage how and when I use. Shame, guilt, and pride will be abandoned when the disease overtakes your life to the point that life is completely and utterly unmanageable.

Addiction Robs You Of Everything Worth Anything In Life

When this happens, often times addiction has taken from you everything that you once held dear. It is a sobering thought to realize that you are no longer respected in your trade or profession, that your children have no trust in you and that your lover has left or thrown you out. It is really over! Consequences of addiction are difficult to face on the best day with those you love supporting you, much less on days like the one just described.
