Is Addiction affecting your life? Your work? Your finances? Marriage & family?

Are you trying to stop but can’t?

Many people engage in drug addiction to cope with challenges such as; financial stress, career dissatisfaction, family problems, relationship difficulties or general unfulfillment. The triggers could also be related to traumas of the past, or it could just be something which started out as fun and now you’re addicted and can’t stop.

Being caught up in addiction is a vicious cycle of broken promises and guilt. As much as you promise yourself and others that you’ll stop, it may be difficult to do it alone, and at times the withdrawal symptoms are just too intense, and you think that the only relief is to use drugs again, but this brings a lot of guilt, then this guilt becomes a reason to use drugs again, because you want to numb the feelings of guilt and disappointment as they are too intense. And so, the cycle continues over and over and over…
