Addiction and Disconnections To Others and The Self

What if you understood that an addiction may be the result of not feeling connected to those who were supposed to love you? What if you knew that people who felt loved and connected to were less likely to become addicted to food, binging, purging, porn, sex, and chemicals? There are studies that suggest that rats as well as people who felt loved and connected to, were less likely to abuse drugs. Instead of feeling ashamed because we are bulimic, or drug addicted, perhaps we need to understand WHY we needed to BOND with an agent or a behavior outside of ourselves in the first place. Maybe our lack of feeling connected and bonded to cause so much stress in us, that connecting to a drug or a behavior helped us feel less pain in our everyday lives. Maybe if parents understood how important it was to BOND and ATTUNE themselves with their children, maybe those children would be far less likely to turn to drugs. Of course, there are those of us who turn to drugs, food, sex, and alike who have not been emotionally neglected and who happen to begin running with the wrong crowd and become addicted to a chemical that way. However, more often than not, addiction can be traced back to some form of neglect and abuse. Understanding WHY you needed to escape your experience in the first place may help you heal the shame that may be only increasing your need to escape your current reality. At your core, you are pure, positive, light energy. It is not your fault if you were born to people who could not love. Feeling unloved may have caused you to believe you were unlovable, but that is a lie. Every human being born is lovable and deserved to be loved. If you have not felt loved, please start by loving yourself in this precise moment. Push back those old programs in your head that other people taught you to believe and know that you are enough--even if you are bulimic, anorexic, or addicted to drugs. Love may have prevented this all. YOU ARE ENOUGH!
