What is the difference between a healthy, excessive enthusiasm and an addiction?<\/h1>\n

“A healthy excessive enthusiasm adds to life, whereas, an addiction takes away from it. I also believe that to be classed as an addiction, any such behavior should comprise a\u00a0number of key components,\u00a0including overriding preoccupation with the behavior, conflict with other activities and relationships, withdrawal symptoms when unable to engage in the activity, an increase in the behavior over time (tolerance), and use of the behavior to alter mood state. Other consequences such as feeling\u00a0out of control\u00a0with the behavior and cravings for the behavior are often present. If all these signs and symptoms are present, I would call the behavior a true addiction.”<\/p>\n

Serenity Prayer<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change;\u00a0<\/em><\/span>
\n Courage to change the things I can;\u00a0And wisdom to know the difference.<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n

Living one day at a time, enjoying one moment at a time, accepting hardships as the pathway to peace.\u00a0 Taking, as He did, this sinful world as it is, not as I would have it.\u00a0 Trusting that He will make all things right if I surrender to His will, so that I may be reasonably happy in this life and supremely happy with Him forever and ever in the next.\u00a0 \u00a0<\/em>Amen<\/em><\/span><\/p>\n
