Addiction Can Affect Anyone: Celebrity Status


Battling an addiction whether addicted to alcohol, drugs, and or both, is not an easy process. Many people struggle with substance abuse problems and even after receiving a form of help, they relapse. Addiction is a serious problem and with the right treatment, a person can be cured. Most people who suffer from an addiction, never thought that they would become addicted to a substance, however that is a large misconception within our society. Addiction and substance abuse can happen to anyone. Addiction does not discriminate against class, social status, economic status, or race; addiction can affect everyone.


In fact even celebrities such as pro-athletes, Lindsay Lohan, Anna Nicole Smith, and other famous people fall victim of addiction.  Former NFL player, Thomas Henderson, admits to the hardship of overcoming his alcohol and drug addiction. He had treatment and still twenty-seven years later, has support groups that he attends. He looks at the situation as managing his propensity to abuse substances. This super bowl winner explains that even though drug abusers believe that the people around them do not know about their substance abuse problem, they do notice and become aware. Henderson encourages those who struggle with substance abuse problems to seek the proper treatment in order to regain control of their situation and lives, before it is too late. Drug abuse and addiction, not only affects the user, but also all the people around the user.
