Once alcoholism or drug addiction begins, an individual’s
problems not only don’t go away, but their physical and mental well
being continues to diminish from the immediate and long-term adverse
effects from the drugs and alcohol.
The mechanics of alcohol and drug addiction are applicable to just
about any school of thought or belief of how someone becomes dependent
upon drugs or alcohol. Nobody who starts using drugs thinks they will
develop a drug addiction.
The life cycle of alcohol and drug addiction begins with a problem,
discomfort or some form of emotional or physical pain a person is
experiencing and becomes difficult to deal with. Operating on the
premise that people are basically good, then individuals seek a way to
solve the problems they might be facing. At some point a drug enters the
picture and provides a temporary, synthetic relief, and for a moment
seems to act as a solution to the problem.
This false idea of a solution is carried for a period of time and
when a similar problem is encountered, then the same substances are used
to deal with them. This repetitive process often ends up as alcohol and
drug addiction, as the person is now mentally and/or physically
dependent on the drugs or alcohol.
Once developing an alcohol and drug addiction, the individual’s
problems not only don’t go away, but their physical and mental well
being continue to diminish from the immediate and long-term adverse
effects from the drugs, often damaging not just the person’s health,
but relationships, the ability to hold a job or even make pro-survival
choices in life. Every aspect of life becomes affected by the drug
addiction.
The good news is that alcohol and drug addiction is not a brain
disease that one has to fight and learn to live with forever or treat
with other drugs. Alcohol and drug addiction can be overcome and the
individual can return to leading a happy, healthy, productive and
responsible life once again.
