How do I know that I may be succumbing to a malady known as addiction, or is it just in my imagination, that is I’m making too big a deal out of it? Perhaps I may have had a dysfunctional upbringing or home life? I feel I can be addicted to anything. Is it just my personality? Do I have one or multiple addictions? Perhaps do a bit of ‘coke’ to help burn off the calories from the last binge and to help control my depression. How many times have I put the ciggies down, then eventually I go back to smoking because it controls my weight for now. This is actually swapping the witch for the bitch (one substance for another) as you see fit.
Addiction is likened to Cancer – meaning it is also a consumer of mind and body – and yet it is a very hidden, secretive disease. Indeed, it is often hidden under the disease of DENIAL and the addicted person is usually the last one to find out.
The acronym ‘Don’t Even kNow I Am Lying’ (D.E.N.I.A.L.) says it in a nutshell. Most people suffering from a substance use disorder (SUD) including processed food addiction are not “bad people trying to get good, they are just sick people trying to get well.”
