What Does Addiction Look Like ?
The symptoms of alcohol or drug dependency are very similar: an increase in tolerance (being able to drink or use more and experience less of the effects), an increase in frequency, lying or hiding information about your usage, sneaking drinks or using drugs covertly, violating your value system while under the influence, or not being able to control your usage. The most defining symptom of addiction is the loss of control as reflected in broken promises, drinking or using more then intended, or doing or saying things that in your right state of mind you would not do.

How Do I know if I'm an Addict?
An addiction occurs when you begin to rely on a chemical, activity or behavior to feel good, to get by, or to escape from your current life circumstance. This reliance, coupled with compulsion, begins to cause harm to you and to others around you and creates a cycle destructive behavior.
