Identifying Alcohol And Drug Addiction At Life Resolutions

Life Resolutions Counselling

Alcohol and drugs represent the most addictive substances in the world and are responsible for the destruction of countless lives. Addiction to these substances is completely normal but should be addressed immediately to prevent harm.

People with mild alcohol and drug problems are generally able to change their behaviour relatively easily, by going ‘cold turkey’, with the help of friends and family or by seeking support from professionals and support groups. However, when people have severe drug and alcohol addictions, they may require more intense treatment to help them to overcome the addiction.

However, it is important to understand that no matter how sever an addiction may be, one can overcome it with the right professional help. If you, or someone you know is dealing with substance addiction, our Psychologist at Life Resolutions can help you to cope with, reduce and overcome your addiction though our counselling services.
