A Variety of Addictions



Over the years we have become acquainted with many different kinds of Compulsive/Dependent Behavior. Almost anything can become a Compulsive Habit and lead to an Addiction.

Real addictions have two parts.

1. Compulsions
2. Dependencies

Compulsions are habits designed to cover, remove or reduce inner discomfort or pain. This may be why so many people who become involved with drugs have had serious childhood trauma.

What are the major sources of childhood trauma?

1. Loss of a parent by death
2. Loss of a parent by divorce
3. Loss of a parent by mental illness
4. Loss of a parent by drugs
5. Loss of a parent by incarceration.
6. Parental violence in the home
7. Personal sexual activities

Healing is possible. It leaves many scars that are best healed by Christians that know how to listen love, pray, and renew minds. See the PDF. E Book Breaking Free            

Pain is inevitable but misery and compulsions are optional.
