Mr. E. D. completed his therapy today and made excellent progress. He has been clean and sober since February 2008 and reports his treatment has been the best thing that has ever happened for him. He admits his addiction has caused him much “LLS” i.e. “Lost life Syndrome!”
LLS is the period of time we have spent in our addiction, using, being high and intoxicated and the time seeking and preparing the chemicals for ingestion. The ritual of abuse is almost as addictive as the drugs themselves. The process is habit forming and the experience is greatly anticipated.
When we decide or are compelled to stop the ritual, it is very difficult and we may fail at several attempts. Keep trying! Don’t give up! Go To AA, Na, treatment, volunteer at recovery centers, get a sponsor, go to any length to stay sober! Read the Script-ACURE for Addiction, the AA Big Book, follow directions! We know how to be successful!
