Addiction

“No society can understand itself without looking at its shadow side. I believe there is one addiction process, whether it is manifested in the lethal substance dependencies of my Downtown Eastside patients; the frantic self-soothing of overeaters or shopaholics; the obsessions of gamblers, sexaholics, and compulsive Internet users; or the socially acceptable and even admired behaviours of the workaholic.”

– (In the Realm of Hungry Ghosts)

Beginning and working through a recovery process is not easy but you do not have to navigate this time alone.

“I woke up one day to realize that my standard of living somehow got stuck on survive.”
