- Am I an Addict?
- For Professionals
Only you can answer this question.
This may not be an easy thing to do. All through
our usage, we told ourselves, “I can handle
it.” Even if this was true in the beginning, it
is not so now. The drugs handled us. We lived to
use and used to live. Very simply, an addict is
a person whose life is controlled by drugs.
Perhaps you admit you have a problem
with drugs, but you don’t
consider yourself an addict.
All of us have preconceived ideas about what an addict is. There is nothing shameful about being
an addict once you begin to take
positive action. If you can iden
tify with our problems, you may
be able to identify with our solution.
