Addiction is the worst thing that can happen to anyone, no matter what it is for. Addiction turns you into a slave who can’t think of anything, but the thing which he/she is addicted to.Alcohol and drugs are such powerful addictions that it gets almost impossible to leave them. The only way to leave them is through a very hard dedication and self control.

There are chances that some of the things you might be doing, must be putting you one step back in letting you get rid of the addiction.

Things Which Puts a Brake On Your Recovery:-

• Overnight Results

It is very important to understand that addiction can’t be recovered in just few days. You have been feeding your body drugs/alcohol for such a long time.

Your body has started to get dependent on that and need a good 3 months at least for a good recovery, followed by counseling sessions. Just like it took time for you to become an addict, it will take some time to recover from it too.

• Wrong Treatment

Most of the people who want to recover from addiction start the recovery program at their home only or from uncertified rehab centers. It is very important to understand that the recovery demands an experienced and professional approach

It is advised to get admitted to a trustworthy and certified rehab center. With proper techniques and regular counseling, one can surely achieve success in DE-addiction.

• Wrong Attitude

It is very important that you have the right approach to recovery. You should understand thoroughly that recovery needs strong will power. If you can’t control your anger or negative feelings, chances of relapse are higher than recovery.

Recovery demands persistence and one should put in the same for best results. One should understand that nothing in life is achieved without efforts and recovery demands the same.

• Wrong Support

It is very important that you have such people around you who motivate you for recovery and not DE-motivate. Most of the times, what happens is that the person who recovers start to hang out with the same group pf people, who encourage addiction.

Chances are that you will again become an addict. Therefore, one should give up on some relationships for the recovery and a normal healthy life.

• Same Lifestyle

It is equally important to change your lifestyle for a better recovery. You should pay mote emphasis on the diet, sleep and physical exercise. Also, you should spend the free time with friends and family and not with addicts.

One should put in all the efforts to change his/her lifestyle as this will change their thinking and ways of living, helping in a faster recovery.
