Addiction Recovery: Dealing With Lingering Consequences
As time marches on in my addiction recovery I can happily say that the lingering negative consequences of my addiction are becoming few and far between. Occasionally I do have to deal with a situation that was set in motion as a direct result of my drug use.
So why do I bring this up? Well later this afternoon I have to report to court to deal with a monetary matter that I let get completely out of hand while in the haze of drug use. Is it weird to say that I'm looking forward to going?
Addictive Thinking: The “Normals”, The Idiots, And The Addicts
I was taking a look online for some addiction related videos and found a series of addiction related videos of Dr. Robert Lefever. In this series he tackles a lot of the main topics of addiction and addiction recovery in a way that can make sense to anyone. One of the videos that I found interesting is called Recovery 7: What Makes An Addict. Here he explains the difference between these people...are you normal, an idiot, or an addict?
