Addictive highs, practices, behaviors
Allow control, reduction, avoidance
Of the relational pain, vulnerability, risk
Involved with meeting real needs
Through true intimacy
By providing false fulfillment
Of acceptance, approval, affirmation,
In a predictable, risk-free, safe environment
Where there is no rejection, worthlessness, abandonment
But unfortunately...
An environment lacking true understanding, joy, love.
