Dealing with someone’s addiction is a very demanding situation. The sleepless nights, the anxieties, the worries, the concerns, and the grief associated with a loved one in this circumstance can be overwhelming. If you have never been addicted to any mind-altering substances like heroin, cocaine, crystal meth, or even prescription meds then you may lack understanding of what is happening with the person you are trying to help.
Most addicts first off don’t want to be addicts. Addiction usually happens over time. It normally begins with some unwanted emotional or physical discomfort. At first, the substance brings about a temporary relief by cutting off the awareness of the source of the discomfort. Making the situation more bearable. But it is short-lived, when the effect wears off more and more are used and suddenly the person finds themselves in need of the substance just to make it through the day.
The inability to stop can be due to the withdrawal effects that at times can be quite painful physically and even, in some cases, life-threatening. Some withdrawal will not be physical but will make the person feel so bad mentally that living without it will be excruciatingly intolerable.
