 Professionals are Saying: 

 

"When a person is using drugs or alcohol you can't simply expect them to stop. The analogy of digging a hole in sand is important here. As you take away the bad behavior, the sand (or the drug using behavior) just pours back into the hole. Rather, you need to replace the behavior with something healthy. This can be social, spiritual, family related, or just fun. But the behavior needs to be replaced, not just eliminated, in order for it to last."
