General Info

The Boston Rehabilitation program doesn’t distinguish people addicted to drugs and alcohol as addicts. Instead we view them as students, people learning to live with out substance abuse. Our addiction treatment program is designed to enable graduates to get back into their life on their own.

This isn’t my fault. If you had my problems, you’d use too.Shifting the blame. If you wouldn’t give me such a hard time, then I wouldn’t use. Not taking accountability for their actions. “This wasn’t my fault.In other words, a substance abuser isn’t actually addicted to drugs (although he may have become temporarily physically dependent) they are actually addicted to is avoiding uncomfortable feelings things and situations .
