I Believe Addiction Is A Disease Not A Moral Failing
But the addict has to own the problem.
“Let go of the argument and own the problem.
Let go of the dream of controlling the uncontrollable.
Let go of the deflection and absorb the truth.”
I hope all addicts get the help and treatment they need. If you are one, and want to get clean, tell people. Call your local distress line or on call health line (I live in a city and we have both, yay)....just speak up and let people know. If you’re under the age of 18, there’s always youth workers willing to help. I know, I was one.
I lived with an alcoholic (my father) then my SO...it’s been a hard life. There’s so much more we could have given our children, our families, but he chose alcohol.
