Trauma, pain, fear, lies and isolation are the food that addiction devours to stay alive. --Steven R. Hobbs
Addicts Are
“Addicts are those who use compulsive, obsessive, and destructive behavior to escape pain. This expresses itself in two ways: those overwhelmed because they have been exposed to excessive pain and cannot cope healthfully, and those overwhelmed because they have been sheltered from sufficient pain and cannot cope healthfully.” —Steven R. Hobbs
