A. “Rock bottom” is different for each individual. You will know that you hit it if you firmly believe that you have lost everything you are willing to lose associated with the addiction. You are now willing to dedicate yourself to learning a way of life without actively participating in something that you know is contributing directly to the damage.

If you feel that you still can lose more, either consciously or unconsciously, and that using is more important than stopping, you have not reached “rock bottom.”
