I Would Like to Become a Substance Abuse Counselor. Please Help?

Question by K8tea: I would like to become a substance abuse counselor. Please Help?
I will be turning 23 this fall. I’ve been out of school since 2009. The only college I’ve done is receiving my CNA through a technical college in 2009. It was only a 4 month program. It was an awesome experience but I realized nursing wasn’t for me. I really enjoyed the helping others I got out of it, though. Since then I’ve just been working and saving money. I’ve been working as a housekeeper but I’ve come to the point where it’s time for me to do something else with my life. I have three passions in life: dancing, film making, and helping others…wanting to make a difference.

Why Am I Addicted to Revenge?

Question by Kaleb13: Why am I addicted to revenge?
I can’t control it. It fills my blood and boils my brain.

Nearly every time I feel I have been wronged, no matter how minor the situation is, I feel I need to get even somehow. This has caused me to commit acts of violence and verbal abuse out of pure impulse without any pre-meditated plan. Normally if I get revenge of something that has happened long in the past, it wasn’t necessarily a plot, but passive aggressiveness past its boiling point that caused me to act out impulsively. Any kind of plans I ever made for violent and torturous revenge were never carried out in real life when I came to my senses.
