On Saturday we discussed the topic Addiction. In this topic we talked about many things but let me share with you the cycle of addiction and how you may help your addicted friend.

People who struggle with addictions often get trapped in a cycle:
1. Abstinence: "I'll never do that again. I'm strong!"
2. Trigger: something triggers their desire for their addiction. This could happen when they're hungry, angry, lonely, or tired.
3. Small decisions: they do something really small that opens the door to the addiction again.
4. Acting on the desire: they yield to the addiction again and it takes over.
5. Guilt and penance: they feel badly and try to do good things to make up for yielding to the temptation
6. Abstinence: they start the cycle again.

Addicts recover in stages, and each stage requires a different response.
Stage 1: "I don't really have a problem" (Not ready). Help them think about where their lifestyle will lead and if this is what they really want.
Stage 2: "Maybe I do have a problem" (Getting ready). Help them think of the benefits and difficulties of giving up their addiction.
Stage 3: "I have a problem. I'm stopping! (Ready). Praise the steps they're taking to stop their addiction, even the small steps. Encourage them often.
Stage 4: "Oh, no! I did it again!" (Falling back). Falling back is a common part of the recovery process. Give more support so that they know that even though they have fallen, they can get up on their feet again ( Ps 37:23-24)
