Active Addiction

The Problem: When Use Turns into Addiction

At some point in our lives, many of us are introduced to substances like alcohol, marijuana, cocaine, or prescription pills. What begins as harmless fun or a way to fit in can quickly evolve into a daily habit. The lifestyle that once felt exciting slowly turns dark and consuming.

Before we know it, we’re doing things we never thought we would—hurting ourselves and those we love. The addiction becomes stronger than our will to stop, and we feel trapped in a life we no longer recognize.


The Turning Point: Seeking Real Help

Many of us try everything—therapy, hypnosis, going it alone—only to fall back into old patterns. That’s because we haven’t learned how to live without substances or how to cope in healthy, sober ways.

True recovery begins when we admit we need help and reach out. Fellowships like Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Alcoholics Anonymous (AA), and Cocaine Anonymous (CA) offer a path forward. These programs provide a structure for honesty, healing, and self-love—helping us discover that we can change.


The Reality: Rebuilding After Rock Bottom

Even after finding sobriety, returning to our old lives isn’t always possible. Some of us may not be welcomed back home. Others have lost their jobs, apartments, or support systems. The wreckage from addiction can leave us with nowhere to turn—and no safe place to start again.
