For Family & Loved Ones
Most often, addicts do not recognize their need for help, and when they do, the attraction to their addiction is so strong that they are powerless to stop. This is because those who are addicted cross a line where the influence of the addiction has become a driving force that is no longer inclined to rational thought. From this point forward, everything that the addicted person thinks, feels, and does, including right minded decision-making and impulse control, is driven by the intense desire to feed their addiction.
