Yeah, that’s not an easy thing to do… it takes determination to break a habit. There are some habits which can be easily given up and there are some that hold you back. Not because you can’t get rid of them, but because some where in your heart you don’t want to. Mostly people are habituated of things and we call them addictions, such as smoking, drinking, cocaine, etc. and some of us are addicted to a person!
Being addicted to a person is the worst of all kinds! It plays havoc on your mind. The more you try to ‘de-addict’ yourself you find yourself drawn all the more towards him/ her!
Here is what most of us do to de-addict; you change your routine or do something you’ve never done before and surprise people! Things go well for sometime, but then one fine day, you get a call, or in the cell and the net age, you get an sms or a ping! And just like quick sand, you are sucked back in! Everything you have done so far, all the time you have spent ‘trying’ not to think about him/her goes down in the mud!
It’s not really that impossible to ‘de-addict’ but you need help. You have rehabilitation centre to help you through an addiction, but when the addiction is of a person, the best help is the addiction himself/ herself. Only they can help you overcome, they can help you cope, they can help you move on… by never looking back! Well, it’s true that they cannot be entirely blamed. The addicted too can do his/her bit by being strong, by weighing how he/she can do better things in life…work harder to get where they want, get famous, have gadgets, fall in love, be loved, be happy, be a better person, make a difference… All they need is to look at themselves as a person who has a lot to give to many people who need them… and all they have to do is break the habit!
