I wrote this in another thread, but I really do believe it is the essence of addiction.

This is Kindness, the final saying I will start each meeting daily:

Quote

God, whenever I become angry, allow me to make amends and fix the damage I've made to the other.

Basing myself on the following speech in The Sermon of The Mount about Murder. I am convinced this is the core of Recovery:

21-22“You’re familiar with the command to the ancients, ‘Do not murder.’ I’m telling you that anyone who is so much as angry with a brother or sister is guilty of murder. Carelessly call a brother ‘idiot!’ and you just might find yourself hauled into court. Thoughtlessly yell ‘stupid!’ at a sister and you are on the brink of hellfire. The simple moral fact is that words kill.

23-24“This is how I want you to conduct yourself in these matters. If you enter your place of worship and, about to make an offering, you suddenly remember a grudge a friend has against you, abandon your offering, leave immediately, go to this friend and make things right. Then and only then, come back and work things out with God.

Anger = Addiction. Amends = Sobriety.

@MsNobody yes we are all addicts but these addicts are special. They are not human anymore.They have a fucked up rotten mindset. They are professional liars. Don't fall into them they know how to trick you.

Addicts have no self worth. And they project that on others. They have fake confidence, fake empassion. In truth they are full of self hate and are emotional numb because of all the drug use. Yes they are like creatures operating at animal level but play being human as best as they can. They are good at that similar to a psychopath and it's necessary to survive so you can't blame them to put a mask on.

This addiction robs their humanness and soul. It's self medication otherwise they would hardly be functional at all or probably not alive anymore.

Yes If you confront them with putting a mask on they probably can be just more falling into self hate. I don't know what you can do. Their root cause must be fixed otherwise addicts go after beating one addiction to the next substitution whatever that means.

This is a disturbing mentality. Addicts have their mind literally high jacked from them, because of drugs. And the way it morphs them is not their control. Yes they become extremely dangerous, and concerning, but regardless they are human beings. Who need help.
