My story
The more I thought about it the more I felt like my
addiction
came from my mental health so I felt that if I ever wanted to get a grip on my
addiction
I needed to find a way to get a hold of my mental health as well. If anyone has any advice for me I would love to hear it.

Finding it hard to ignore my thoughts
My wife was struggling with
addiction
did a lot of things that hurt everyone. We have been struggling to work on trying to save our marriage. She is sober but I have become someone I never wanted to be. I'm ruining my kids because I yell a lot they don't listen or respect me or my wife.

3 month off 3 month on and off again
I realized i hadn’t beat my
addiction
when work suddenly became very quiet and all I was left with was my addict, and you guessed it, my mind twisted it’s way around to making me think it was a good idea to smoke. So I did for 2-3months.

Perfect opportunity
I applied for something that I've wanted for a very long time, I see it as my purpose (
addiction
field in general) and Im obsessing. I am convinced that I'm not getting it and won't get the opportunity any time in the near future.

I'm just venting but if anyone has experience with loving an (possible) alcoholic, please help
I came up with a list of places by me that offer help with
addiction
, but I don't know how 1. He's going to feel when he wakes up. Will he be upset with me? Will he be super apologetic?

Stressed
He’s in recovery for
addiction
. He has mental health issues that have been recently diagnosed. And a head injury that he is still recovering from. They should just leave him be. Am I right? I’m just so sad about all this.... so so sad.

If you have been abused, it's all in your head?
How do co-existent psychosocial, behavioral, and mental health conditions (such as
addiction
, somatization disorder, and depression) affect the management of levothyroxine therapy?

Help
My parents won’t let me on meds because they fear
addiction
but I just want to have one day where I wake up happy and go to bed happy. But I guess that’s too much to ask for. I get yelled at when I ask for help so I’ve stopped asking.

Benzo’s
I also understand there’s the possibility of
addiction
leading to abuse leading to death, but is that what people are talking about when they say they are dangerous? I’m not looking to dispute or argue, I am legitimately curious and just want to know why some feel they are so dangerous?

Addiction: the needing is only a feeling
So I keep feeling like I need something badly. I feel shame and guilt for feeling I really want to take a pill or drink. This will get better. It has to. The needing is only a feeling but it’s all day every day...I must succeed... get past this. Anyone ever become addicted? How do you cope?

The thing is my whole life. the
addiction
the problems with the law, the alcoholism its all because of the adhd. I know this. And no matter what I do. I see counselors and therapists. I meditate. I do all I can. My PTSD is making the adhd come back full force.

Connection between HUMIRA and Fatigue?
It was manageable because of a strong caffeine
addiction
. Now, however, the fatigue is unmanageable. I increased the amount of time I have been sleeping quite a bit (getting close to 8hrs a night now!), but the fatigue is near debilitating.

The Safety of Being a Social Smoker
Researchers believe that dopamine plays a major role in the
addiction
process. Other drugs like opiates and cocaine also cause this chemical reaction in the brain. Food can be addictive as well.

I’m hoping that as the weeks go on I catch this “running
addiction
” people speak of and won’t care about going out myself. I have a stunning park literally on my doorstep, I just know I wouldn’t push myself on my own - a confidence thing I think.
