THE MOST BASIC HUMAN NEED IS TO FEEL CONNECTED TO OTHERS AND ADDICTION DESTROYS CONNECTION. WHEN PEIOPLE WANT TO GET SOBER, THEY OFTEN HAVE ALIENTED FRIENDS AND FAMILY, HAVE NO JOB AND NO MONEY AND ARE PACKING AROUND LOADS OF GUILT AND SHAME FROM THE THINGS THEY DID IN THEIR ADDICITON. THEY FACE A CATCH-22, REMAIN ISOLATED AND LONELY OR SEEK CONNECTION WITH THE PEOPLE THEY DRANK AND USED WITH AND LIKELY RELAPSE.
