  1. DRUG ADDICTION? 5 WAYS TO CHANGE YOUR LIFE THIS YEAR AT A TREATMENT CENTER

  2. It’s the first few weeks of 2017, which means everybody is talking about their New Year’s resolutions. Some intend to lose weight. • Others want to make more money. More still want to find the love of their life. • Whether you subscribe to the idea of resolutions or not, a new year is always a good time to make changes. You may not necessarily think your drug problem is something to change. • You may believe you can stop using whenever you want. However, if you were to actually go cold turkey, you’d quickly find that your body would ache for your next hit.

  3. By enrolling in a drug addiction treatment center, you can finally make the biggest change you could possibly hope for this year: you can get sober again. • Not sure if you’re ready to take the next step? Here are five great reasons why you should. The sooner, the better!

  4. You can rediscover who you are — • Who are you? It’s a loaded question on its own, but it’s one that becomes infinitely more complicated once you’re addicted to drugs. • You may not know yourself as much other than a user and addict. Your looks start to change, your weight may shrink, and you leave behind your hobbies, ambitions, and social life. • Drugs leave you a shell of your former self. Once you get sober, you can slowly relearn all the wonderful things that make you who you are.

  5. You can rediscover who you are — • Who are you? It’s a loaded question on its own, but it’s one that becomes infinitely more complicated once you’re addicted to drugs. • You may not know yourself as much other than a user and addict. Your looks start to change, your weight may shrink, and you leave behind your hobbies, ambitions, and social life. • Drugs leave you a shell of your former self. Once you get sober, you can slowly relearn all the wonderful things that make you who you are.

  6. You can leave negative emotions behind — • Chances are, you didn’t just try drugs one day out of the blue. Something or someone pushed you to do it. • Maybe it was divorce, financial issues, loss, or trauma from your past. Whatever the reason, you masked the pain with drugs instead of dealing with it. • With drug treatment, you and a therapist can discuss the cause of your substance use and you can learn to let go and move on past this horrible event that’s come to define you.

  7. You can patch up your confidence — • Drug abuse often makes you feel antisocial, shameful, and afraid. Your self-esteem takes a nosedive. • You’re embarrassed to face your friends, family, neighbors, and coworkers. You hide and spend a lot of time by yourself. • You may feel like a failure and hate who you’ve become. Once you enroll in treatment, you can learn to forgive and love yourself again.

  8. You can reconnect with loved ones — • Your relationships with others have probably suffered. Unless they were users themselves, you probably thought your friends and family just didn’t understand. • You’ve stopped talking to them and seeing them. After rehab, you can open dialogue and begin to repair the relationships you may have damaged when you were using.

  9. You’ll have time for you — • Drug addiction takes up nearly all your time. You’re always trying to get money for your next fix. • Then you’re seeking out drugs. Once you have drugs, you’re using them and may be incapacitated for a while. • It’s a huge waste of time you could spend doing something much more fruitful.
