Addiction by Jessica Scarberry

If prison hasn’t made you hit rock bottom then I don’t know what will. It’s what you make it. You can keep falling into the hole or start fighting your way back out. I believe you can do it!

Being an addict, not a addict … it’s not its… sad is very similar to depressed, use maybe sad and lonely? Otherwise it’s your thought and your reality, which makes it valid. Good one.

As time goes, the sobriety seems to be more difficult because there is no way to synthetically silence the emotions, the thoughts, the feelings that reality presents in. The anti-sober approach was the most effective of the coping mechanisms acquired because it was the easiest to use. Other coping mechanisms don’t seem to make much difference because they require more time where as alcohol was quick and seemingly painless.

It will hurt – sobriety. With each day, it hurts less though you won’t know that for several days. One step, one day, one feeling at a time.
