Death is coming

The closer death creeps up upon me the less I am able to understand the reasons for life or living.

Yes I have experienced a close family member dying and unlike television it takes decades to handle such a thing. To think I am going to put my family through such a thing when I finally leave is more horrific to me than the thought of death itself.

My life was and is still a learning experience but when all said and done what am I to do with all this accumulated learning over my lifetime if I just die. There is no logic or reason to this.

Long ago I became aware that the God story that is sold to the majority is just a nice story to give mankind with a message of a basic layout of how nice life could be if everyone followed these ideas. Not many in life do and if one thinks about it the good and evil structures actually depend on each other. The good that can be experienced in life is only understood as good when there is it's opposite to compare it to. This is not rocket science only common sense in reality. I am not saying we need to experience bad but understanding in it is needed to appreciate the great things many of us can have in our lives. From birth to death there are many ways mankind helps his fellow man. How many ways can you help?

Just What Does Addiction Treatment Consist of?

By Royce Dockrill


Addiction treatment is usually a important step towards a victorious addiction recovery, but what's integrated and included in this type of therapy? That will depend which facility you choose in your addiction treatment. There are lots of drug abuse centers and programs, and every one features unique components, success rates, treatment plans, relapse risks, and comfort levels. Various facilities might provide only temporary addiction treatment, and this is proven to be not successful for permanent results. Group therapy should be involved with any substance abuse recovery program, however this should not be the sole kind of counseling provided and you should have numerous other choices in addition to group meetings.

To get productive addiction treatment a program also needs to offer considerable one on one sessions and therapy. Without private and individual therapy any addiction treatment program only gives a short-term fix, and not a permanent recovery. If you want to recover successfully you should deal with and take away the unique aspects to blame for the substance abuse in your unique situation. Each case is different, and this means that the addiction treatment plan created ought to be unique and customized for you and your compulsion factors, not made to fit a wide range of conditions and drug abuse recovery needs.

Any addiction treatment method that you select should also contain spiritual counseling, for the best treatment possible. This is one therapy aspect that's overlooked by the majority of facilities designed to handle substance abuse, and spiritual counseling is important for total healing and a recovery that lasts. Spiritual injuries and voids can lead to drug and alcohol use and abuse, and a need for addiction treatment. Therapy and counseling for spiritual matters is a crucial step towards full health and a recovery which stops relapse. Any facility or program that doesn't offer treatment for this facet of drug abuse won't give a complete recovery, and may increase the relapse risks significantly.

For addiction treatment to be successful you should stay at a residential facility. It's not possible to work in your recovery when you're in the same familiar surroundings, because it is far too simple to return to the same old behavior instead of working on the issues causing the substance abuse.

A residential addiction treatment method, especially an high end choice such as Valiant Recovery, provides the best chance for success at kicking your habits, and changing your life for the better once and for all. Substance abuse does not have to be a issue any further, because assistance is available.
