Top addiction therapists in 37874: Sweetwater, TN.

Addiction happens and can really rob you of your life. Addiction can be defined by my clients as anything that is taking over your life and causing you interpersonal issues, legal issues, employment issues, school issues and family issues. Treatment varies for each individual and level of addiction. Are you looking to run your life and not have your addiction in charge of your life? Are you a parent who is concerned for your child? Is your relationship being overtaken by your partners addiction. Many times addiction has other mental health conditions.

No one says; "Today I am going to start something to be an addict." There are many reasons why people will drink that first drink or take that first pill, etc...ranging from acceptance, to relief. or just to experiment. Others are seriously hurt in an accident or with health issues and even when they are mindful of prescriptions-they find themselves ensnared with addiction. Addiction can also include: screen devices, apps, internet, porn, shopping/hoarding, gambling, obsessive-compulsive behaviors regarding anything; and once it changes neural pathways-then one is stuck; along with the family and friends around him or her. Addiction is not due to weakness. We can Help!
