One of the biggest challenge to being an addict is looking for an escape to numb the pain. Instead of taking a medicine to heal, you revert to street drugs, which only perpetuates the problem or makes it worse. Your healing should come from within, not through a chemical. The drug only distracts you from your problem, and then you feel the need to continually distract yourself, and you never deal with the problem to begin with. Focus on the mental pattern that created this dependency, and distract yourself with an activity that will be beneficial for your overall well-being. Danny G.
