eli5 why can you not just go into a medically-induced coma to avoid the symptoms of withdrawal?
In: 1430
The hardest part of addiction is not the physical dependency it’s the psychological/emotional dependencies that keep us coming back.
To overcome the phychological/emotional aspects is to overcome baggage and to consciously choose to not partake in all the little rituals we create around our addictions. These rituals keep us in comfort bubble and become subconsciously programmed into our daily lives.
You have to choose to be aware of the issue and choose to replace these reinforcing rituals with something else.
This takes time, and consciousness;
awareness, discipline, growth.
