@zeroproofvibes: “Nobody wakes up and says, ‘I want to be a drug addict.’” — Jelly Roll In his conversation with Jay Shetty, Jelly Roll pushed back hard on one of the most damaging myths about addiction — that people choose this life. He explains that addiction isn’t a decision made from comfort or clarity. It’s what happens when pain goes untreated. When trauma goes unheard. When survival turns into a coping strategy. Nobody chooses the sickness. They choose relief — and the relief turns into a trap. This is why shame never heals anyone. Understanding does. If you’ve ever blamed yourself — or someone you love — for “choosing” addiction, this is your sign to pause. The link in bio to The Holistic Coach — The Craving Breakthrough shows how to work with cravings instead of fighting them with shame and willpower. #alcoholism #sobriety #addiction
