The Opium Habit

"The Opium Habit" by Horace B. Day is a heartfelt look into the world of opium addiction, probably written long ago, offering guidance and encouragement for those caught in its grip. The book tells stories, including the author's own, about the tough times and possible recoveries from opium addiction. It talks about the sadness and pain that come with this addiction, but it also shows how people can get better by being strong and never giving up. Day starts by talking to people who use opium, hoping to bring them cheer by telling them that others have gone through the same thing. He shares his own battle with opium, sharing his lowest points and how he decided to quit. He points out how hard it is, both in body and mind, to fight the habit, reminding readers to be patient and strong as they try to get clean.
