Friend's Day - Chemical Dependency and Friends

Friendship is the relationship that a person has of affection and affection for another, predicts a sense of loyalty and protection. Some divide common interests, such as drug use, but here loyalty and protection are not very present. We usually believe that self-control comes from within, but many of our attitudes depend on both friends and family and ourselves. Friends that surround us often have the power to make us fat, consume more alcohol and experiencing illicit drugs.

Active time friends are not responsible for the fact that someone is dependent chemical. But you have to understand that you do not give more to attend that class. Active friendships need to stay in the past during the recovery process and guidance is simple: avoid habits, people and places of activity, we are impotent to some people. Knowing who our friends are part of our choices, some usage friends will no longer appear to our views, others mock!

In the process of recovery of chemical dependence, the removal of friends who influence use is considered an efficient strategy. It is important that new friendships are made, or the pursuit of former friends who do not use, and of which the chemical dependent has moved away in order to expand the social support network.

The most sincere and coolest friendships are those that are far from interest or privilege. A real friend is the one who enters when everyone else goes.
