Ice Cube Addiction

I didn't really have to lie to my parents at all because they didn't seem suspicious at all. I only had to lie to a couple friends, and i didn't really feel guilty, but it felt awkward to lie to them because I wasn't used to lying, especially not about something so simple. I think it's really easy for addicts to ruin relationships because personally, I wouldn't want to lie to my friends and family all the time. I'd probably just withdraw from all my relationships.


My actions didn't really surprise me. It's pretty much just part of my personality to act out of the norm.  And I didn't have to sneak around to get ice, so I don't think anyone really thought I was acting differently than usual.

Almost no one noticed a change in my behavior. It's easy to see how parents and friends can be completely blind to the abnormal behavior of an addict. And a lot of times, when they do notice abnormal behavior, they probably deny and/or rationalize that abnormal behavior because they don't want to believe that their child/friend is doing what they're doing.
