Yeah, that makes sense. The bit about not being able to divorce yourself from you. I gave it a bloody good try, tho'.
I'm a junkie. I'm addicted to me power, the same way someone gets addicted to heroin. At first it just made me feel good, but then I couldn't get by without it, and then I was doing anything I could to get it. The source I was getting it from was taken away, so I switched to everything and anything else I could find, to make me disappear.
Including... well, you know what I mean. Who I mean.
There. Its said.
Rom's explained to me that I'll never not crave power. Because its me mutation, it's locked into the way me body works, and I've fucked up the chemistry. And that's the part that scares me, because I'll always be a junkie, in one way or another. So the past is going to have a hold on me no matter what I do.
I'm trying to choose a better future, but its hard, knowing I'll always have some part of me that won't let me change, that I'll have this weakness and it makes the people who trust me be in danger. I've seen junkies on the streets, and they're the lowest scum. Because they'll do anything to get their fix, and that was what I was doing. I don't want to do it any more, and I know there are people who will help me, but it's still as scary as hell.
Thanks for telling me, 'bout your problem. Its not easy, admitting you ain't in control, is it?
