Any addiction can be devastating – not only for the person experiencing the addiction but also their close family and friends.
Addiction can begin for many reasons:
- a traumatic experience
- the sense of escapism the addiction can offer
- habitual behaviour
- coping strategies
- defence mechanisms
- peer pressure
The length of addiction is determined by each individual, however the road to recovery begins with accepting and acknowledging the addiction.
Addiction counselling helps the individual to rediscover the true person under the label of an addict.
At Clarity Thinking, an experienced and qualified addiction counsellor will guide and support you through the process of addressing and working through your addiction.
