Addictive Thinking in Sobriety

These thoughts may include thinking that sobriety is not in your best interest, that sober people simply do not understand, that you need your old people, places and things to be happy and a confusion between who one’s friends and enemies actually are.

Addictive thinking may even cause you to believe that you never had a real problem with alcoholism or drug addiction in the first place, but that other aspects of your life were the true culprit for the unmanageability and difficulties experienced. 

These thoughts can then lead to separating oneself from addiction treatment therapies, sober behaviors and groups.
