When I finally started to tell the truth about my addiction and the lies that went along with it I felt a change in me. It is a liberating feeling to let go of all the lies that one creates to be able to continue with drug use. The part that really surprises me now is that it was pretty obvious that I was lying but I believed I was fooling people that cared about me and the ones that didn't they wouldn't dare call me on any of my b.s.
I know someone that I love very much who is going through with the struggles of staying clean and so far they are losing the battle, until last week I wasn't sure what to do or how to help but all of the sudden they are starting to tell me the truth to the questions that I am asking, I can see that telling me the truth is something that is giving them power because it is given from the need for help, it is the start of saying to ones self that I want help and that I don't want to keep up with these lies any more.
I have been given the trust of this person, it must have been so hard to finally let go of the bull and tell me all those dirty secrets which are so embarrassing.
The truth that we all know is somehow warped by the addiction, the brain chemistry has been altered and to reverse this we need to stay clean.
Now that we have a trust between us we can hopefully start at finding a way to get on the road to recovery.
The truth shall set you free or a least its a start to a life that you really want to live.
