Why are you addicted?

SececaRD said:
Well Everyone has underlying issues. Yet not everyone takes the drug route to cover their issues. No one is perfect, and everyone has problems in life, hundreds of them. How are you gonna pin point what problem caused your addiction out of 100s of problems. Thats insanity if you think you can. I beleive the longer you search for the reason you got into your addiction, the longer your gonna stay in your addiction. This comes from experience. I work at a rehab, and Ive yet to meet someone who found the reason why they became addicted.. Theres only one reason, thats bad decisions... Period. This comes from my personal experience and line of work.

I'm honestly confused as to how no one would know why they became addicted to their doc. So the patients at your rehab used once then was like fuck it and did it everyday for no reason other than pleasure. Don't be mistaken my friend their are many things we hide from ourselves. Our problems are like trees that have roots buried deep beneath tons of earth. We will present false reality in order to hide them then bury them deep within ourselves. I can't see an addict getting very far in recovery if they dont even understand why they are addicted in the first place.
 
Ill tell you why, they are trying to fill a void inside of them. I beleive everyone has this void, or empty place inside of them. We just all chose a different method to fill that void. Some use food, shopping, NA meetings, gamgleing ect. ect.

If you want my true opinion on this issue I beleive the only true way to truely fill that void is with the Lord Jesus Christ. Hes the only one that will fill the void and never leave that void. I suffered from Heroin addiction for 8 or 9 years and it wasnt till I turned my will over to him that I was free from addiction. And free I mean I dont even get the urge to use anymore and Ive never been to a meeting, it was just wiped away!!

I know this isnt popular for this website but it worked for me!

Have a blessed day
 
I don't believe in the lord jesus christ or whatever so he can't fill a void for me. What has he done for me lately? Fuck all is the answer. The only thing that can fill the void is me and the things i choose to do. If i waited around for jesus to do anything for me id be 80 years old and still waiting.

Just my personal opinion on the matter :\

I agree Paranoid Android!

If there is a god he gave US the power to make our own decisions in life and to make a good life for ourselves. You don't sit around waiting for everything to fall in place for you - it'll never happen for you that way.

Exactly! We all have free choice to do what we want. So we do what makes us happy and often that leads to problems such as drug, alcohol abuse or cheating on your g/f or wife. There are all kinds of shit you can get into and they don't have to be drug related at all.

But we have the choice to do things with our life that doesent lead to self destructive behaviour. It's not always easy to turn down that needle, drink or pipe but it's our choice to do it or not do it. We can't very well wait for god to cure us or save us. Get up off your ass and do it yourself.
 
Alot had to do with my surroundings, I think. Partying was just what happened, it happened from a young age and I never really put the brakes on and whoa 33 yrs old, blink. I was told to do otherwise but thankfully had great parents that let me do what I wanted. Another part is out of habit. Truthfully I dont bother to give it much thought or else I bog myseld down about coulda shoulda woulda's but all I have had has pretty much been good times.

Peace,

hedonistic reward. cause it feels good to do, and bad to stop, pretty straight forward.

^ Any Christian denomination could be considered a cult. And do I need to mention the Crusades?

All drugs aren't unhealthy for you. Some drugs have great health benefits.

That's a large part as to why many other people are addicted to drugs (in a physical, not psychological sense).
