Belongs to: Therapist reacts to Alice in Chains Nutshell
As an addict myself , I have never ever felt as if the chains of addiction have been broken. I guess that’s why they say we will always be addicts.
It’s a difficult situation to admit your flaws . It’s even harder to ask for help because of shame and disappointment . One by one, you lose your friends , your loved ones , and eventually your family. During all of this, you have no place to call home. Now , if by chance you reach the bottom of your addiction and have become sick and tired of being sick and tired , then you are considered one of the lucky ones because this usually means that you know there’s a problem ! Years of sobriety and falling off the wagon are terrifying moments because it’s at those moments when you really feel like there’s no one to talk to because you let those that believed in you and those that were starting to gain back your trust down for yet another time. So you sink lower and become solitary confined. Days turn into weeks , weeks turn into months , and before you know it, months turn into years. Life is hard enough, and yet we think we’re able to escape its difficulties through self medication . Saying you’re sorry or being sorry isn’t the hardest. To forgive yourself is my struggle and always has been. It may be a small world, but it has big oceans and big mountains that seem to be too much to conquer.
