Addiction is not only detrimental to the individual\u2019s health, traumatizing for loved ones, destructive to overall emotional well being, but addiction is the creator of chaos and failure. The unmanageability makes it nearly impossible to maintain a happy, successful life. Awareness is the beginning step in achieving growth and cultivating change. Do not be afraid to follow the lead of the sober support rallying around you.

Once you have taken the time to face the demons of your past, it\u2019s time to take action. \u2018Rome wasn\u2019t built in a day.\u2019 <\/em>An individual seeking recovery shouldn\u2019t expect change to happen overnight. Most addicts spent years destroying their relationships, careers, dreams, goals, credit, and almost every core value instilled within them. It would be foolish to expect all of these matters to be handled overnight. Begin by taking baby steps towards clearing the wreckage of your past. Build a resume. Show up at the seemingly impossible job interview. Create a budget. Answer the debt collector\u2019s and try to work out a payment plan that works within your budget. Where there\u2019s fear, there\u2019s sure to be growth. Make a list of goals\/tasks you want to achieve. Mark these goals off as you execute them and watch your dreams become your reality. Once you\u2019ve faced your addiction, head on, the possibilities are endless.
