When I was originally informed about "The Disease Of Addiction" during my first week I had accounted at Serenity Lodge... I can honestly say I seriously couldn't gasp the concept of it completely nor could I even bear to attempt to comprehend what it would even mean to me! Which had me led me to constantly over-thinking the reality of the Disease causing me to make myself believe it was most probably yet i was semi somewhat certain it defiantly had no connection of any kind to my past, present or even my methamphetamine addiction! 
Yet when going over my Step One work during the 6th & 7th week into my journey of recovery at Serenity Lodge I had realized that the whole "Disease Of Addiction" thought(s) / meaning(s) was a whole different kind of scenario / angle compared to my original thoughts on the apparent meaning of the; "Disease Of Addiction!" Being in the 7th week I had self received a great deal of realization which is why iI now know that the Disease Of Addiction means that I have next to none / great lack of self-control which isn't only with my past, present & yet to be future behaviors! It also has great deal dictation via my actions & which had amazingly served me countless times throughout my active addiction which had featured a large scale of compulsive & obsessive intakes of my beloved poison; Methamphetamine which became detrimental effectively yet nearly suddenly due to the amounts I personally forced myself to inhale on a daily basis which theoretically left me constantly dissatisfied within the drug yet the Disease Of Addiction (Chronic Brain Disorder) has in reality taken over my mind, body & soul which is the reason I am Powerless over this Primary Disease which can be cured... Which is where Rehabilitation at Serenity Lodge had come into my life as The Disease Of Addiction Must be treated, managed & monitored over a lifetime to receive the freedom you've longingly been seeking!
The Disease of Addiction:
Is more powerful than you could ever believe!
It's not easy but honestly;
YOU CAN BREAK FREE & CHANGE!!!!
