Hello and warm greetings to everyone who is part of the team of guest authors. Please take this opportunity to read my post, which refers to a specific topic that I identify with very much. Sometimes it feels good to talk about it.
Overcoming Adversity and Hope: A Path to Freedom.

I know that in many countries there are low-income towns and infected cities where light and shadow intertwine with different contrasts, and there are millions of stories struggling to find an ending. Among these stories, we find a constant battle, especially against addiction. It is a palpable reality, and here in Venezuela, specifically in my town, it is something that is flooding the streets once again.
My story perhaps reflects a little courage, perseverance, and willpower, since I have lived on the streets, where temptations and addictions abound in a daily reality that imprisons millions. I was one of them for years, immersed in that environment, lost in an endless cycle, but it has been five years since I made a decision that changed my life completely. I chose to be free, I chose to live, and since then I have traveled a path full of challenges but also significant victories.
I confess that recovery is a journey that requires a lot of courage and determination. It means looking in the mirror and recognizing that within us there is a strength capable of overcoming any obstacle. It is a constant daily struggle to overcome those old habits, where we gradually realize that we are stronger than we ever thought, because it is not just about giving up the substance, but about reinventing ourselves and rediscovering who we are in order to redirect our lives toward a higher purpose.
For all those who are struggling right now, I want you to know that you are not alone because there are communities and people like me willing to offer support and understanding without judging you because the key is to seek out those helping hands and surround yourself with those who want the best for us because we all deserve a chance, we all deserve a brighter tomorrow.

I am a living example that transforming our lives is possible. I know that there are also countless examples of this every day. Each day is a new opportunity to move away from what hurts us and move toward a future full of hope. I know that the road is not easy, but step by step we are getting closer to a fuller life, a life that is worth living.
And you who are reading this, remember that it is possible to break free from the chains of addiction. You, like me, can be the hero of your own story. And you who see those people on the street immersed in vices and addictions must learn to have a little more empathy and not simply see them as crazy people, but as people who have suffered, and those are the consequences or reasons that lead them to currently have that lifestyle. But I remind you that life is a precious gift, and even in the darkest moments, there will always be a ray of light waiting to illuminate our hearts, and you and I can be guides to build better days.

@fonestreet I envy you in that regards that you have bested your addiction.
Despite treatment, I feel I will also be an addict. I can ensure I don’t use (alcohol) or set firm rules how much and when to do it, but I can never relax and feel no chip that is telling me a) not to give in to it and b) to drink whatever you can as soon as possible.
Even years after a rehab program - I feel it is very difficult to say I don’t drink at all (because I can’t deal with it - and thus accept you are an alcoholic forever) or keep trying and beat it in order to live a normal live and set an example for my kids how to deal with these temptations in a responsable way (and basicly failing most of the times). Being hard on yourself - do you really want to be able to control it , or is it just the addiction trying to open the door a little bit ;)
Right now I feel addiction is something that will last forever, we might be able to control it, but it will always be a weak spot and acceptance of that is a huge step forward!
I feel you can be very proud of yourself that you chose to take a different turn in live as that definitly is not easy. Keep it up my friend!
Part of that involves changing the way we view it. For example, in the case of alcohol and the sensation it produces, is it really worth it? What does it really make me feel? How can I change that?
It sounds easy, but it's actually simpler than it seems, bro, because alcohol addiction levels aren't that high, and we can trick our own brains (each person has their own way). My best advice to you is to drink enough alcohol until you feel stupid, empty, unmotivated, and like trash. If you manage to create this feeling, you'll develop a repulsion toward drunkenness.
Currently, my struggle with addiction is against cigarettes and coffee, but we're getting there little by little, bro.
I send you a hug and wish you lots of strength ✊🏻⚡
I come from other sustances i don't want to talk about, but the goal is be free and clean even from suggar in a future. 🙏🏻
For me the addiction is not the substance, but the function to supress negative feelings. Thats why I can easily quit (as I just find a new thing to use to supress)
Thank you buddy! Sending you a hug and strenght back!
