If you want to leave a normal life, you can either adapt to stress, or eliminate the stress cause There are many ways to deal with stress but basically they boil down to only two – fight or flight. There is an old saying that recommends to join your enemy, if you can't defeat it but certainly this does not apply to stress, though to some degree you can adapt to stress and learn to live with it. Actually, this seems to be the case with most of us – we have become used to stress. Or at least we think so. But is this the best approach? |

Addictions come in many flavors and substance abuse is not the same as addiction First, it is necessary to clarify that drug addicts and alcohol addicts have many things in common but still both groups are pretty different, so when addicts are concerned, it is necessary to clarify which kind of addict one has in mind. However, what both groups have in common is their dependency on the particular stuff and the way their lives (and the lives of their family, relatives and friends as well) are affected by the addict's dependency on alcohol or drugs. |
