Addiction is something that takes a hold of you.
Addiction can do two things. It can make you feel like your floating to the sky. You can barely feel your fingertips. You feel warm ,you feel loved.
But then it can be painful. Gut wrenching pain.
You feel trapped . You feel stuck. You feel hopeless.
