The key is to find a way of working that fits you, the person in the room saying: hey, I'm trapped in this and I can't get out, and my job is to help them find a way through themselves which allows them to walk through a door which takes them out to an expansive world rather than the limiting, trapped, damaged, painful world of the full-blown addict.
