In this episode Connor talks about how the progression of our addiction slowly but surely gets worse over time. The only way that our addiction can get to a place of mental, emotional or physical severity, is by slow but steady progress. It becomes normal for addicts and alcoholics to justify and manipulate their thoughts, actions and behaviors in order to get what they crave and desire. Our mind is fertile ground for justifying bad behavior once we are hooked on a drink or a drug. And that eventually leads to desperation and unfortunate scenarios.
