Seek help & support.: The first step to recovery is admitting your addiction; it's great that you recognize it. Many have been in your shoes. It may help to join narcotics anonymous & connect w/ others who have gone through similar experiences. But addiction can affect the entire family & support from loved ones is crucial in recovery. Consider talking to them or asking a professional to help facilitate communication.
