Dependency/addiction

At this moment the amount of people developing a dependency or addiction is increasing dramatically.
At the same time we tend to be in collective denial.
Addiction is characterized by powerlessness, destruction, lack of control and a total obsession with a chemical substance (alcohol/drugs/food) an activity (gaming/gambling), or a relationship (sex/codependency).

Addiction is always progressive.
Addiction and dependency influence us in a negative way on a physical, mental and spiritual level.
We lose our human sense, our standards and values and the connection with ourselves. We can consider addiction and dependency as a state of spiritual emergency, which offers us a platform for transformation at the same time.
