Addiction Therapists in Golden, CO.

Addictions are about worship. Recovering addicts are the most enjoyable people to be around. Why? They worship. Maybe not in the traditional sense but they are grateful, humble, relaxed. They know their place and they are not full of themselves. Prior to recovery addicts were taught or taught themselves that certain feelings were impossibly dangerous to feel. They found a substance/activity that transported (worship) them to a place where they did not have to feel. They did not have to suffer. Addictions is a refusal to suffer and the discovery of an idol to worship. The story must be explored: Who taught you it was so dangerous to feel? Who taught you that you can not suffer?
