One use Away from Hitting the Wall! How to Stop Once and for All!
While not everyone who uses drugs becomes addicted, many people do. Drug abuse involves compulsively seeking to use a substance, regardless of the potentially negative social, psychological and physical consequences. The line between drug abuse and drug dependence is defined by the role drugs play in your life. Addiction and drug dependence occurs when drugs become so important that you are willing to sacrifice your work, home and even family. Once your brain and body get used to the substances you are taking, you begin to require increasingly larger and more frequent doses, in order to achieve the same effect. In other words, the addiction becomes a trap! Why can some people use a drug and walk away from it, yet others become addicted to it? If we were to believe the proponents of the disease model that links addiction to a chronic incurable brain disease, then wouldn't everyone that uses a drug even once become addicted to it? Without question drugs are brain altering substances, and they do in fact create changes in brain chemistry, but that is not what causes the addiction or the cravings associated with it. Abusing drugs whether illegal or prescribed is a method of deadening or numbing the pain of emotional trauma caused by family dysfunction. Take a brief inventory of your feelings. Why does abusing drugs make you happier? What emotional pain does it temporarily remove? Were you unloved as a child, controlled, inadequately parented, verbally, physically or sexually abused? Did your parents manipulate you, reject you, or abandon you as a child? You see, the key to beating a drug addiction is to uncover and remove the emotional pain and the inner turmoil that is causing you distress. |
