..addiction..

in the pharmacy i see addiction everyday

its amazing how many types of addiction there are

it would be too easy if it were just drugs, booze & cigarettes

the hardest part of kicking a habit

is wanting to kick it

after all, we get addicted for a reason

often, and too often

things that start out as a normal part of your life

at some point cross the line and become

compulsive, out of control

its the high we are chasing

the high that makes everything else fade away


the thing about addiction is

it never ends well

eventually...

whatever it is that was getting us high

stops feeling good

and starts to hurt

still, they say you dont kick the habit until you hit

rock bottom

but, how do you know when you're there?

because no matter how bad its hurting us

sometimes...

letting it go

hurts even worse
