I'm an addict. That's my personality. it seems like i always have to have an addiction. Unfortunately i've turned to dangerous and illegal addictions, even though I know its bad and I don't want to, I seem to go right back to terrible things. Is there a way out?

You can actually know what you are doing is bad and realize that it can hurt you but continue to do it. I'm a smoker, I know it's bad yet I still do it. Why? I don't really want to stop. If you really truly want to stop, there's probably a help/support group out there that has people in it just like you. If there's nothing in your area, consider seeking help from a mental health provider or even finding a support group online. Sometimes just talking about the addiction helps. Depending on the severity of an addiction such as with alcohol or drugs, it may require hospitalization. You can actually die from lack of alcohol if your body is addicted to it and you suffer from DTs (Delirium tremens.) [ ChevyIINova's advice column | Ask ChevyIINova A Question ]
