Once the drug cravings have been kicked for good and the physical side of addiction eliminated, it’s time to address the reasons a person turned to drugs in the first place. This is what a student had to say after while on the Overcoming Ups & Downs Course:
During the Overcoming Ups and Downs part of the program, I learned a lot about certain personality traits/characteristics that will help my recovery and also personalities that will not help and I should keep a good distance from them.
It’s all about social vs anti-social. I found out a lot more of the people I was hanging around with to when I applied certain questions to my past.
In my opinion, everyone in life has both social and anti-social personality characteristics, it is how many people apply them in life which determines what type if people we become.
