Some people use because they need relief from abuse issues, loss... However, they will seek other means to cope when the drugs and/or alcohol no longer work. They will stop! The addict/alcoholic cannot unless he or she enters recovery.

There is no magic pill to help with years of built up guilt. shame. anger, fear and sadness let alone the shock of waking up to find you have these feelings. Recovery means much work. It is worth it and easier than the slow death of addiction.

Trust the recovery from addiction process!

Love and Peace,

When abusive drug/alcohol use creates consequences, the abuser quits because it is not relieving pain. The addict keeps abusing because of loss of control and cravings. This information will give you a start on how to treat the problem.

When choosing a recovery program, look for an 'abstinence from all mood-altering chemicals' rule. Otherwise, it is not an abstinence recovery program.

Always trust the thinking of someone who is sober and clean a long time and is giving of his or her time.

If you are an addict/alcoholic, getting high will result in failure. When sober and clean, our problems are temporary and solvable.

When in solid recovery mode my first year, I found an amazing revelation. I did not have to go back to that HELL ON EARTH no matter what. That's not luck. That's GOD!

The family is the motivator. The secret to successful addiction recovery is to motivate the addict/alcoholic to desire help.

The family is the best source of leverage for motivating an addict alcoholic to treatment. What is more unmanageable that breaking your loved one's heart?
