Is drug and alcohol addiction just a bad habit? Or is it a disease?

Posted by joeyjensen1959 @joeyjensen1959, Jan 24 11:21am

Sickness ,disease ,addiction recovery all can be life threatening, it takes time to heal (with addiction, it takes the rest of your life) and it takes work and we need to give and receive help to make it work.

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Addiction & Recovery Support Group.

I hope and pray,that we can all stay clean and sober...
Addiction is a terrible way to live. It destroys our families ,our happiness and hope ...And it's also passed on from one generation to the next. Please stay clean and sober for Yourself for me for your friends and your family.God bless and I love you all for sharing and caring.

Hello @eaglenest

As it has been a few months since you last posted, I was wondering how you are doing. Will you post an update when it's convenient?

@hopeful33250 i know it's been a while since we communicated. I missed your message. I just barely noticed it. I hope you're still doing good, I appreciate your concern. I know for sure now more than ever, the addiction will ruin everything that we have and staying clean and sober. Is a good feeling? And it's worth the effort and worth the work I've had a broken ankle and recovering from that and had a lot of other stressful things going on in my life, more than I could say here in this short message. But if you're interested, I would love to hear More from you. God bless you
