Slave to My Eating Disorder – Taryn’s Story is a post from: Drug Treatment Info

THE REALITY OF ADDICTION AND RECOVERY. Stephen s life as an addict was a nightmare, bringing him to some of darkest and loneliest places imaginable. After his introduction to drugs and alcohol at an early age, his life became a series of desperate, morbidly comical attempts to support his addictions — including botched robberies, corporate embezzlement and prison time. Twenty years later, Stephen finally reached rock bottom and entered a recovery program though it took losing his job, his family and himself to get him there. Once clean, he was faced with a new challenge: rebuilding his entire life from scratch, with nothing but faith to go on. A testament to the power of twelve-step recovery, Rising Above the Influence is Stephen s honest, inspiring account of the depths one man can fall to and the heights he can achieve if only he reaches out a hand for help.

Question by Adoration Please: What is the difference between drug habit and drug addiction?
we obviously all know what drug addiction is. – you can’t function properly without a drug. Your body and mind are so used to it, you need to use it regularly to feel good.

However, whats the difference between that and drug habit?

Best answer:

Answer by rosette
A habit for example could be a problem drinker. This means the person could stop if they wanted to or for certain times. An addiction is when a person cannot quit or has a very hard time doing so. In a drug addiction for example the body will react more to quitting although in both cases there will be health problems both in use and quitting.
