Recovery Begins with Understanding Drug and Alcohol Addiction.
Drug and alcohol addictions are common. Some people use alcohol or other substances and can stop when they want. For others, the need for the substance becomes compulsive and can result in dangerous behaviors. This is given a formal diagnosis of substance use disorder, and people with substance use disorder most often need professional help to stop using the substance and begin recovery.
Denial is common for people with substance use disorder. Quite often they will tell family members, concerned friends, or even themselves that they don’t drink or use that much, or that they could quit if they wanted to, but the truth is they can’t. Sometimes they can maintain an appearance of normalcy, holding down a job and meeting necessary obligations. Gradually the substance becomes the primary focus of their life and even though they may be aware of the pain caused to those who love them, they are unable to stop. Those suffering with addiction often feel shame because they can’t quit, and guilt knowing they hurt the people who love them, but those feelings often come through in the form of anger – pushing away those people who love them the most.
Sometimes denial is shown by placing blame on others for the negative consequences of drug and alcohol addiction. The cop that gave them a ticket was just trying to make his quota before quitting time. Missing a family event was due to the boss making them work late. The fall down the stairs was because the rug made them trip.
No one wants to be addicted to drugs or alcohol.
No one believed when they started using that they would become addicted. Those who are addicted want to stop using, but it is not easy. Many have tried to stop using their substance, often secretly, and have suffered withdrawal symptoms that could only be relieved by using their substance again. This makes them believe that addiction recovery is not possible.
