Could someone lie to us when we were at the most vulnerable time in our life that addiction it’s forever once addict always addict ?
Could someone plant this seeds in our brain ?
My first time in rehab I felt that they forcing this bellive s into my brain and when I got out from there and relapse that’s where my addiction got way worst
Just wanna bring it up for discussion
It is true. Once an addict, or alcoholic, always an alcoholic or addict. There are probably thousands of stories to back that up. People who wouldn't, or couldn't, or didn't want to believe that it was a lifelong "sentence," picked up another drink, or pill, bargaining with themselves, and God, that they could control themselves. Just like gamblers with a gambling addiction, and people that cannot control their eating. Can you imagine how difficult that would be? We can live without narcotics, or booze, but we have to eat. Once you realize that you are powerless over whatever you are addicted to, and ask God, or your higher power for help, then you have opened the door to sobriety. When you think if it in terms of one day at a time, it is much easier to wrap your head around, than projecting about staying sober your entire life.
