When you talk about addictions, everyone thinks of drugs and alcohol. These are serious addictions. Frequently, the addict is the last to know that he/she is addicted. Denial is a big part of an addiction. Sometimes, you have to ask those closest to you how your behavior effects them. If they are calling your workplace to say you're sick, that's a problem. If you are keeping secret stashes of drugs or alcohol hidden from your loved ones, that's a problem. If it effects your parenting, that's a problem. Sometimes it hard to admit you might have a problem. Some people don't want to look 'weak'. For others, the memory of an addicted parent keeps them from admitting their addiction. Whatever the problem, there is hope! If you're willing to admit that you have an addiction, that's half the battle

If you answer yes to even one of these questions, you could benefit from therapy. Sometimes, people have more than one addiction. You might be addicted to alcohol and porn. Or you might be addicted to sex and the internet. I can help in those instances, too. An addiction is a way of stepping out of your life. Learn how to step back in.
