Powerlessness is a key aspect of addiction, reflected in the inability to control substance use or behaviors despite harmful consequences. This loss of control often persists despite repeated attempts to stop, eroding confidence and self-worth. Denial and rationalization such as believing one can quit anytime or that help isn’t needed, can further entrench the addiction cycle. Recognizing powerlessness is not a sign of weakness but a crucial first step toward recovery. It invites individuals to seek external support, embrace honesty, and begin the process of healing through therapy, community, or spiritual growth. 🪴
