different addictions – v4

different addictions
addictive behavior
stimulants, depressants
a long list of chemicals

prescription, illicit,
over-the-counter medications
tobacco, alcohol,
caffeine, reefer

anything we consume
that begins to consume us
anything we can’t let go
that seems to control us
