Familiarize Yourself with Addictions
April 2, 2026
An important dimension of your personal owner’s manual is understanding and avoiding (if possible) the perils posed by addictions to personal and relationship well-being that you (or someone you care about) will encounter during your Life Journey. Forewarned is Forearmed as the saying goes, but even when you know about how addictions work, you may not realize that you have stumbled into addiction until you are already ensnared.

In gratitude for the life I have been given, I am sharing everything I learned during my career and personal life on my website https://www.LaneLasater.com and on my YouTube Channel Life Roadmaps from a Retired Psychologist https://www.youtube.com/@lane205
