<title>Am I Addicted? A Sane Response to a Modern Phenomenon</title>
<description>We all know an addict. This statistic may sound shocking, but I believe it is true. Whether it is a class A drug addict, an obese food addict, or someone who spends three or more hours a day slumped in front of the TV, we all know an addict; it is an addiction to a culture, in my opinion.</description>

<title>Spirituality, God and the 12 Steps</title>
<description>The power and influence of words becomes very clear when we discuss the words &#39;Spirituality&#39; and &#39;God&#39; as they relate to the 12 Steps used by Alcoholics Anonymous and Narcotics Anonymous. I am offering definitions for these two words that allow atheists and agnostics to take advantage of the 12 Steps. For centuries, the words &#39;Spirituality&#39; and &#39;God&#39; have been treated as though they are the sole property of religions; this is not the case.</description>

<title>Self-Image &#38; Addiction Recovery</title>
<description>How we view ourselves has a strong effect on everything we do, think, and feel. With a strong self-image, we approach challenges with a confident and hopeful attitude. Drug and alcohol addiction can ravage a person&#39;s self-image. Recovery from addiction means much more than just recovering from one&#39;s relationship with a substance. It involves a complete reconstruction of every aspect of what makes us human; makes us who we are, and who we are becoming with each choice me make.</description>

<title>Addiction Recovery Housing Options</title>
<description>Addictions come in many forms: drugs, alcohol, food, gambling and even sex. If you are facing an addiction recovery, it has probably been mentioned that removing yourself from your current circumstance will aid in your goal. Addicts will willingly change their behavior and modify their surroundings, or the law will do it for them. Because the law is usually involved before an addict decides they want to make that change, there become relatively few options for recovery.</description>

<title>Gambling Addiction - No Longer Stuck on the Slots</title>
<description>The highs and lows of gambling can be quite a fix. One minute you&#39;re up and the next minute you&#39;re down. The rush you feel when you get that big hit is exhilarating! You think you have a winning machine so you raise the bet. The first couple of hits you lose, but you&#39;re sure the next one will be the big one. You keep hitting that button - wishing for that big hit. Now you&#39;re down. It feels depressing. You&#39;re not ahead anymore. You lose all the money you came with but you want to keep playing. You&#39;re sure this machine will pay out soon so you go to the nearest ATM machine. Now you&#39;re spending your bill money but you&#39;re sure you will win it back....and more. Does this sound familiar? This is an indication that you probably have a gambling addiction.</description>
