Health & Medical Addiction & Recovery

October 14

Updated February 12, 2014.

Today's Thought:

We can learn coping skills to help us understand addiction and how not to get caught up in it. We learn how to love someone in a healthier way; not shielding them from the consequences of their actions.
We learn to set boundaries surrounding what is and is not acceptable behaviours of others. Mostly, we learn to feel okay about who we are. No one can force anyone to do anything. People have to want to get better.
