Is it harder to hold on, or to let go?

The thing about addiction is that it never ends well.

Because eventually whatever it is that was getting us high,

stops feeling good and starts to hurt.

Still, 

they say you dont kick the habit till you hit rock bottom.

But how do you know when you're there?

Because no matter how badly a thing is hurting us,

sometimes, 

letting it go hurts even worse.
