Here are a few ways you can do some inventory on your own behaviors and start dealing with addiction in a healing way.
Read...I’ve said I was “good,” “fine,” or “doing well” after crying for hours, lying in bed all day with no motivation, and even experiencing suicidal ideation. My worst days are when the temptation to mask my pain with a smile is the strongest.
