Welcome to Section V:
THE RECOVERY GUIDE!

Addiction is...
A Disease of the Brain!

Addiction is a Chronic,
Progressive, Fatal Illness!

It is a Relapsing Disorder!

Denial is the main Obstacle
to Treating this Disease!!!

Drugs cause Fundamental
Changes in the User's Brain!

Drugs change the levels of
Brain Chemicals, Radically!

Neurotransmitters or Brain
Chemicals, Control the ability
of Brain Cells (Neurons) to
communicate with each other!

The more and longer Drugs
are used, the more Changes!

If Use becomes Addiction
The User then has a Different
Brain than prior to Addiction!

We are Our Brain!
It controls Everything...
That We think...
Every behavior we display...
Every part of our bodies!

Thus
... A Different Brain
... A Different Person!

With these Brain changes
Using is no longer a Choice!

Will Power alone doesn't work!

Only with Help does an Addict
Have a Chance for Recovery

If You are...
or think You May Be...
Addicted...
