Addiction is when your brain starts to make you believe you need something just to feel normal.

It feels like fighting yourself every day. One voice begging you to stop, another voice convincing you that you can’t.

It’s arguing with yourself in the mirror. It’s saying never again and not believing your own words. It’s throwing it away and going back for it. It’s knowing it’s hurting you and still feeling pulled toward it. It’s telling yourself you still have control while quietly realizing you don’t.

It’s exhausting. It’s isolating. And it’s way more internal than most people understand.

Most addictions don’t start in chaos. They start with experimenting or partying. It feels harmless. It feels controlled. Until it isn’t. Somewhere along the way it stops being something you choose and starts being something you feel like you need.

And for the people who say addicts got themselves there, that doesn’t offend me. It just means your opinion is light and you’re judging a war you’ve never had to fight.

From the outside it looks like bad decisions. From the inside it feels like being bound.

I’ve lived on both sides of it. I know what it’s like to be stuck in it, and I know what it’s like to come out of it.

And if you’ve never felt that war in your own head, be grateful. But don’t confuse gratitude with understanding.
