I haven't struggled with addiction but am thankful that i developed an understanding of its causes and the way to achieve recovery. Almost everyone I worked with identified drug and alcohol use as a way to numb their minds to keep from thinking about childhood and/or childhood trauma. Many also suffered symptoms of mental illness, like depression, nightmares, anxiety, and mood swings. Many suffered terribly in life and were homeless. They felt tons of guilt over losing their children to a broken system that labeled them as "unable to parent their children due to their history of drug use.
I helped over 70% of them regain their lives, reunite with their families, use mental health treatment consistently over time, and stay clean.
I developed a way to deal with the root cause of addiction .. the memories of the trauma that led to the initial drug/alcohol use. Once you regain emotional control and self-confidence the path to recovery opens wider. One of my patients said it was like finding a "Hidden Door" out of the memory loop of being victimized. That's why I call my Facebook and Tik Tok pages, YOUR HIDDEN DOOR. Maybe I could help you, too.
