I'm really addicted to a form of drug. I won't go into details because I don't think it's allowed and I REALLY don't want other people doing this sort of thing so hang with me on this.
I have been "using" for three years now. I have seen my mind go downhill. My health isn't what it was. I'm simply not as bright as I use to be and it's hard to focus on one subject sometimes now. I am ashamed of myself because I feel so consumed by this drug. I know I'm very addicted mentally, at the very least. I want to stop.
I've tried to stop using before but I always go back to it. It's like my safety. My comfort. It's my entire personality now. I don't know what I would do without it sometimes. I feel stupid because I am NOT the person I am when I am using. I'm always using though so nobody knows the real me. It's like I'm fake and not ME.
How do I stop? I can't go very long once I've decided to call it quits because then I get anxious and I just can't hold myself back from it. This is so embarrassing. I can't believe I'm telling you all about this.
What do I do though? I want to stop being a drug addict. I thought it was cool and fun before. Now I feel so empty and lifeless. Please help me figure this out. I don't want this kind of life. (link)

I have done it. Its HARD to think about why you don't want to, especially when its in your face. But if it is that important to you, you will quit. You choose how much will power you have. Id also say for the time being, don't go around people who have it or use it. You have to do it by yourself, while you may have the support of others, you're going through it alone.

The advice is very much common-sense but it simply does not work. My body and mind are both very addicted. It isn't as simple as telling myself, "No!" when I want to use. I wish it was that easy...
