Try the 24hr addiction hotline 888-421-9013

change comes from you and only you!

You can do it, many have!

Just remember to not replace one addiction with another, and once ready it is always a wonderful feeling to volunteer. volunteer in a sober house. Get a certificate in addiction counceling. Do good to feel good.

“We are taught to consume. And that’s what we do. But if we realized that there really is no reason to consume, that it’s just a mind set, that it’s just an addiction, then we wouldn’t be out there stepping on people’s hands climbing the corporate ladder of success”
