NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 21, 2019 / Health, Wealth, Love, and Happiness - the 4 pillars to a good life. We often view the pillar of health through the lens of being physically healthy...but what about mental health? How about addiction? A gambling addiction, sex addiction, or alcohol addiction. All these areas affect the emotional well-being of many people that we interact with daily.

In 2012, 18.1% of Canadians reached the criteria of alcohol abuse or dependence at some time in their lives.

In 2015, over 77,000 Canadians were hospitalized due to over-drinking, yet most cases could have been prevented from responsible drinking.

What Are The Symptoms Of Addiction?

There are two branches of addiction that any individual may be recognized under. 'Substance-related' or 'Addictive Disorders'.

The primary symptom that doctors look for in an individual with an addiction is an excessive pattern of use.

People who find it difficult to get through a day without reverting back to their source of substance/behaviour may require the support from treatment centers.

Most individuals who face an addiction are blinded with the fact that there may be negative consequences from their addiction. They seem to not be able to control themselves from stopping their actions.

How Can I Treat This Addiction?

First, you must realize the severity of the substance/behaviour and the impact that it has in your life. Whether that may be a negative consequence or just disrupts the quality of life.

Seek out to a general practitioner for guidance on the next steps to moving towards improving your overall quality of life as well as for treatment options.

Treatment options may vary on the severity of the addiction, however, abstaining from the substance/behaviour for a long-term basis is a very common approach to rewiring your lifestyle.

In certain cases, facilities and rehab centers with daily support from nurses, psychiatrists and multiple counseling and behavioural therapy sessions are the route that many take.
