The process of it has a depth to it when you describe it that goes far beyond the usual notes of blame and judgment. There's a freedom to it all of a sudden and that has a pretty deep impact on me, for one. <br> <strong>Thanks Catatonic...I find your own writing to be filled with much of the same...you also have an inner depth of understanding the dynamics of life that others do not have to capacity to grasp so eloquently...thanks for your support!</strong> I really like the way you talk about choice and change.

Thanks Catatonic…I find your own writing to be filled with much of the same…you also have an inner depth of understanding the dynamics of life that others do not have to capacity to grasp so eloquently…thanks for your support!

Not feel a shame or sorry or pity about it... Treat it like parents treat their children... when they are small, then can make mistakes, it is quite normal to make mistakes when you are small, but you are not loved less because of making mistakes... you should love yourself, as you are everything that stays with you for your entire life:) I am not sure it is exactly what you wanted your reader to understand... may be it's just a reflection of your thoughts in me... anyway, thank you! <br> <strong>Thank you so much for comment Polina, very insightful and a very good way of looking at it all.

What a great post :smile: It's so true that simply treating addiction does not solve the problem for most people. I think sometimes, the other problems that go with addiction (like personality disorders, etc.) are even more difficult to deal with. In my own case, quitting drugs was and is only part of my treatment. I'll be in recovery the rest of my life - it's a wonderful place to be. Thanks for this post, you always inspire me! <br> <strong>Hey Bobby! I'm with you on this one. Abstinence from any and all mind or mood altering substances was just the first steps in my own process of recovery....I know that because of that I was offered a freedom never thought possible...</strong> Hi Morgan!

I actually believe that all addictions have a co-occurring mental health diagnosis...at the very least depression. Substances are often used to self-medication and only once sober do some of the mental illnesses show themselves. Anyway, I'm preaching to the choir. I am so glad that you had the courage and are using it to help others. <br> <strong>Thanks Clinical......This week has been a rough week in relation to many people choosing to pick up "one last time" and now they never will get that opportunity to get help or find hope....it's a devastating disease that leaves such wreckage in it's aftermath.</strong> Yes, help and hope is available to those brave enough to go through their anger and pain and to stick with treatment.
