It takes a brave person to admit that they are addicted to something and fear of failure must be something that is one of the biggest reasons for not admitting it. There is always a reason why someone becomes addicted to something and it will take a very long time for them to understand what this really was ( they may think they know but often the reason they thought it was actually turns out to be just a symptom of something else). Bravery is not something all of us are good at and it sometimes needs us to hit rock bottom before we have the courage to be brave. It also takes a brave person to stand up to the addict and often it will cause an awful lot of pain and anquish to many but that bravery is often what will save both of you. So if you know someone who is struggling with addiction in some way or if indeed you are struggling, remember how brave you are being and accept that you can only take one step at a time. Nothing changes overnight and patience and determination is what gets you to the other side.
