Some problems slow us down because we ignore them. Denial is a wicked little devil that comes in many forms. I have a little devil working on me that has been ignored long enough. I need help with this one. It has me in a headlock; a mindlock. I am addicted to vicodin. I want off the drug. It is everything I have to bring this out in the open. The voice of addiction speaks as I type this, as I upload. The voice is saying “dont put that on youtube”. My will to rid myself of this menace is grappling with the demon all the way to the moment when I will push the “save changes” button. I am fighting it in public for you who know this evil thing. My problem is small compared to many, but the voice inside is the same. That voice wants me to keep it hidden. I bring that voice to you for judgment. Help me be accountable in front of you and I will do my best to show how accountability can work. That is the best I can do.
