An essential step in recovering from addiction is to realize that you have a problem. An individual who refuses to accept they are addicted cannot move forward to solving a problem they deny they have. For many, when it comes down to confronting their addiction problem, also requires the individual to try to figure out why and how it developed to start with. Addiction commonly occurs when a person starts taking the drug or alcohol to self-medicate in order to minimize negative feelings and emotions. If a person doesn't learn the root issues connected to their addiction and does not receive help, it will typically be almost impossible for them to conquer their addiction.
