Thank you for this post. Thank you as an non-using addict, after rehab... It touches me to the bottom and reminds first few weeks after getting clean. By the time I get to the sentence "is a symptom that wants to show that something has gone horribly wrong and needs healing or attention." I was crying soaking wet. This is what my addiction teach me - Listen to your emotions, each of them is equally important. Thanks again, greets!
