Hawaii Island Recovery 
You wonder, all the time, what it would be like to be clean and sober. Every addict dreams of a happier, healthier life without substance abuse and the corrosion it causes the quality of life.
If you’re an alcoholic, your spouse, kids, co-workers, friends, neighbors – they all live with an alcoholic – an impairment that may be will disguised or obvious to all.
Your Better Life
Looking for a reason to control your life again? Need to break the endless cycle of addiction, rehab, sobriety, addiction – all in 30 days? It happens too frequently to those who suffer with addictions and harmful behaviors like anorexia, bulimia, gambling, and other activities that undermine life’s quality.
People with addictions look back at the bad times. As they achieve sobriety, and time passes, these one-time addicts often provide a look at the horrible damage addiction does to families and
to individuals.
Many addicts help others with addictions take back their lives, remove the hazy veil, and see the beauty in life all around them. Often, recovering addicts provide the most realistic insights into fighting addictions.
Bloggers Helping Addicts
In a post on Feelings and Faith titled “They Call that Murder,” the author, Christine Suhan, describes the depths to which she had sunk.
“My addictions had taken me to incredibly low places. I had made a habit out of lying and stealing. I had been in and out of treatment centers, hospitals, and psyche wards…I woke up shaking like a leaf (more like convulsing), my clothes were drenched in sweat, I was confused and I had been vomiting uncontrollably all night.
This wasn’t the first time I had experienced severe DT’s (delirium tremens) from alcohol but this time it felt worse for some reason.”
Christine is incredibly brave to share with the world her reflections on the horrors of alcohol addiction, drug addiction, or unhealthy behaviors.
Individuals can take strength and inspiration from others who’ve been “through it” – if the writer is talking from
personal experience, it resonates with readers who nod knowingly because,
yes, they’ve been there before, or maybe that’s where they are now.
