The one-word cure for addiction is “surrender.” Interestingly, it is not only the one-word cure for addiction, but it is also the one-word cure for every problem in the world! Your therapist will help you to learn how to surrender the grip that you have on addictions (or the grip that they have on you) and learn how to turn to a higher power, something greater than yourself, to give you the strength that you need to let go of addictions and move on toward a new sense of freedom and hope in your life.
