Escaping Emotions: The Real Reason Addicts Turn to Drugs
Addiction, at its core, is often a means of escape—a desperate attempt to avoid confronting painful emotions and uncomfortable truths. Many people mistakenly assume that addicts are driven by a desire for pleasure or a weakness in character.
But, in reality, the real reason most addicts turn to drugs is because they don’t want to feel. They are weighed down by painful emotions, memories, or life experiences that they feel unable to face. Beneath the destructive behavior, there lies a belief that emotions and feelings are bad and that they need to be numbed or avoided. This avoidance is fueled by a deep, often unconscious voice known as addictive thinking, or the “Enemy of Life,” which convinces people that facing their emotions will only lead to suffering.
