Spiritual Disease Of Addiction
Create the Spiritual Miracle
At conception a new human seeks life, ever increasing in size along a natural path of development, and one of the first experiential events they have is a feeling or an emotion. In fact after they are born, they still have feelings and emotions, until they develop language skills at 18-24 months, and then they begin having thoughts.

The layer of the brain that creates and handles and deals with feelings and emotions is then deeper than the layer that creates and handles and deals with thought.

The word emotion has a prefix and a root word.
The prefix is e which means out, away from.
The root word motion means action, not stationary.
So emotion speaks of a need or force to move out of a person.

Again observe a baby up till they are 18-36 months old. They share their feelings, honestly, openly and willingly (where have I heard that before?).

A feeling, incidentally of which there are only six, for illustrative and uncomplicated purposed, feelings or emotions. These are the pure emotions, undiluted by intellectualization and reason. They are
Sad
Hurt
Angry
Afraid
Ashamed
Glad

SHAAAG acronym easily remembered as it is like a SHAG Carpet!!

The conception of an emotion or feeling results in its birth. At the moment of its birth, it has one and only one goal in its simple existence: TO BE EXPRESSED.

Express is the normal evolutionary responsible goal of a feeling.

Express is a compound word also, like emotion, created by the combination of
EXIT + PRESSURE = EXPRESS.

SO EMOTION MEANS MOVE OUT AND AWAY FROM, AND EXPRESS MEANS PRESSURE TO EXIT.

Can it get any more reasonable and simple than this?

However along comes the disease of addiction, spiritual disease of addiction, and since the spirit is deeper in a human than the emotion or the will. nope, I'll deal with that later.

The natural expression of emotion is compromised with the contraction of the spiritual disease of addiction.

That is why the disease of addiction used to be called
"THE FEELINS DISEASE".

A person has an emotion and instead of allowing it ot naturally express itself, they exert pressure against the feeling or emotion in the opposite direction. This is done from an intellectual and reasonable and rational perspective.

IT is called repression and suppression. You bury your feelings and emotions. When you bury your feelings you bury them alive not dead. To bury something you have to have a hole in which to put it, for burying something above ground does not work. The hole you dig is called a "depression".

When you bury enough of these feelings and emotions via the psychological process of repression and suppression you end up depressed and in depression. At this point go to your doctor or shrink and he will give you some pills.

Never the less, at the birth of an emotion, there is energy attached to the emotion, and that energy is from the spirit, and that energy is what sets the feeling in motion and provides pressure for it to exit.

If your spiritual "BATTERY" in yourself has 10 units of energy to run your body, and you get a emotion that contains .5 units of energy, and to repress the emotion it takes .6 units of energy, then you have just wasted 1.1 units of energy that you buried with your unexpressed feelings. Do that enough and you will be depressed, tired, lifeless, no energy, no motivation... Sound familiar?

Go to the family Dr. or shrink and they will give you a pill.

Fine you counter, but I am not done, these buried feelings do not remain in stasis, for they leech out and into the thoughts and actions of the person and they are unaware of this as they have told their conscious mind that the feelings are of no importance and no consequence. Eventually the buried feelings will not only cause mental and intellectual problems, actual and behavioral problems, they will begin to cause physical problems.

Sentaire is the Latin word that means TO FEEL.
The root word SENT.
RE sent ment means to refeel in the here and now reality of today a feeling or emotion that you "buried" yesterday, yestermonth, yesteryear, or even yesterdecade. You will keep refeeling over and over through your thoughts and actions and physical ailments the buried feelings.

These buried feelings rot and decay and are putrid puss pockets of rot.

The disease attaches an umbilical cord to these buried feelings and emotions and uses the energy to gain its power and energy from.

The disease parasitically feeds off of the energy and power of a feeling in this fashion.

Your disease does not want you to LIVE it wants you to DIE.

In the throes of your disease you have dealt with your feelings this way:

D= Deny, Diminish
I=Ignore, Intellectualize
E=Escape, Evade, Evaluate
S=Suppress, Repress, Depress
your feelings and emotions.


In treatment of this disease it is imperative to do this with your feelings:

L=Learn to
I=Identify
V=Verbalize
E=Express
S=Share
your feelings and emotions.


How to LIVES with your feelings and emotions.

Learn to
Identify= use one of the six pure emotions SHAAAG
Verbalize=use I message in this format I FEEL ____S,H,A,A,A,G_____.
Express=observe how a child or younger expresses their feelings and copy and imitate them.



PRACTICING ADDICTION REQUIRES ADDICTS TO DIE WITH THEIR FEELINGS AND EMOTIONS:
D=DENY, DELETE, DIMINISH
I=IGNORE, INTER, INTELLECTUALIZE
E=ESCAPE, EVADE, EVALUATE
S=SUPPRESS, STUFF, SUBLIMATE

The disease of addiction (DOA), is the root of many behaviors which accelerate the host (person) to an early grave. The disease of addiction primarily manifests itself in one of five behavior clusters. Alcohol, drugs, sex, food and money. This disease has been afflicting the human race for at least the past seven thousand years, and has defied concerted efforts to understand, treat and recover individuals struggling with the complexity and tenacity of the disease.

Research has been done into multiple addictions and has resulted in findings called Addiction Interaction Disorder.

Physicians, psychiatrists, psychologists and social workers inevitably and consistently misdiagnose the disease of addiction in the early stage of the disease as a mental or emotional or behavioral diagnosis and prescribe drugs to treat the secondary signs and symptoms of the undiagnosed primary disease. This induces IATROGENIC DISEASE and through medication accelerates the primary disease of addiction.

Iatrogenic means physician induced, caused by the omission or commission of the caregiver. The misdiagnosis does many things including leading the patient to have a false idea of what is wrong with them, giving the patient a misplaced sense of hope, delays the identification of and early treatment of the primary disease, allows the primary disease to worsen and progress, actually accelerates the progression of the primary disease in that often the addicted continue to drink and use illicit drugs in addition to the licit expensive drugs. Further disputes the delicate brain chemistry which has been altered by alcohol and illicit drug use. Synergestically worsens the potential of conflicting combination of drugs.

So the diagnosis of addiction, frequently missed in the diagnostic process, actually fools these well educated, degreed professionals.
This is historic,  documented as the disease of addiction has a history in early recorded time. Church and religious leaders, the first social service agents for several centuries cited the cause of addiction as 1. weak will, 2. sinning, 3. inferior moral standards, and 4. possession by an evil spirit. Their attenpts at treatment fared much better than modern chemical interventions, which leave the addict with not co-occurring concomitant diagnoses but instead, dual and triple addictions.
