Having an addiction is having a dependence on a particular activity, substance, or thing. Addiction is a problem within America today. Alcohol, drugs, food, gambling, pornography, sex, smoking, and much more. Many addicts think that simply having enough willpower is enough for them to stop their addiction. However, having willpower is not enough.
Making a lasting behavior change is not a simple process. It involves a lot of time, emotion, and commitment. Being intimately involved with someone who is suffering from addiction can feel like a rattlesnake bite! While it is natural to want to help loved ones, enabling takes helping a step too far, where the addict has their needs taken care of while the enabler neglects his/her own.
According to the World Health Organization, the world's top three addictive substances are alcohol, heroin, and cocaine. The top three activities are eating, gambling, and sex. Addictions are extremely common.
This episode uncovers addictive behaviors. We examine the science behind addiction's chaos. An enabler's role with an addict is also explored. Actress Jada Pinkett Smith is used as a model to demonstrate the reality of addictions existing among celebrities. If you or a loved one is battling an addiction, please seek immediate help.
