Im addicted to drugs and alcohol but im a slave to my mind. One ruins my life, the other rules it. I lost control of both, where do i stand? Im afraid its all quicksand. So many hands but only 1 to grab. Im struggling as you can tell.

You got this Champ. You could try telling yourself to Soldier Up, it works for me most of the time.

Andres, what you’re describing is what I call the “disease”, or my “addict/ego”. And yes they are cunning, powerful and baffling. But you can transcend! The AA program, sober community, the 12 steps and service is my medicine. By making my sober program my number one priority in life empowers me to beat my disease into submission. Daily meetings morning and evening, step work and service.
I’m here if you want to talk.
