Addiction is a complex problem that affects not only the individual, but also their loved ones and society as a whole. One misconception about addiction is that it only involves substances such as drugs or alcohol. However, addiction can also manifest in behaviors such as eating, sex, shopping, gambling, or even exercise. These behaviors are often used as coping mechanisms to deal with underlying emotional issues, trauma, or stress. The word "recovered" is used lightly in this world as it is a constant journey, a daily practice, a continual bringing the mind and body back to the heart to expose how one is feeling in the moment and not running or sprinting away from those feeling. Recovery is about progress, not perfection. Ultimately, recovery is a lifelong journey and it requires ongoing commitment to self-care, self-love, and finding healthier ways to cope with challenges in life.
