How Addiction Affects Your Life and The Lives of People around You
For people suffering from an addiction to drugs and alcohol, it can affect every aspect and part of their life.
Some people can develop very obvious side effects, and allow their addiction to take over their family, home life and work life.
However, some other people who might suffer from a less severe, more short-term addiction, might be able to live their daily life without letting their addiction get in the way.
Regardless, living with an addiction to drugs and alcohol is hard, and will have negative consequences on your physical and mental health which will take their toll, whether you like it or not.
It’s a matter of fact, if you do not seek help then you will not recover. Your addiction will eventually take over your life and ruin your career, relationships, health and home life. Needless to say, it also hurts the lives of your loved ones, too.
As alcohol and drug abuse often occurs due to a mental health problem, such as anxiety or depression, by consuming the addictive substance you are only suppressing these negative emotions even more. As a result, these mental health conditions will only get worse, and your only crutch will be to consume more abusive substances. This is how the cycle starts and continues until you get some form of intervention.
On top of mental health issues, living with an addiction to drugs or alcohol can also have some serious consequences for your financial situation.
As addictions are so hard to live with, it is very hard to maintain a job whilst suffering. Therefore, lots of people end up losing their only form of income.
Due to a combination of factors, it is very common for friends and family to distance themselves from individuals suffering from an addictive substance due to the stigma that surrounds addiction, and other factors. As a result, you are likely to feel increasingly lonely which only adds to your pre-existing depression and anxiety.
On top of mental health issues, addiction causes long-term issues to your physical health. Excessive abuse can cause irreversible damage to your liver and lungs which could eventually result in long-term health problems or death.
Unfortunately, some of the damage to the body that is caused by addiction to drugs or alcohol can be irreversible, it is never too late to quit and recover.
With the help of a drug or alcohol rehab centre in Shoreham by Sea, you are capable of recovery.
During our initial phone call consultation, we will ask you to describe how addiction is currently affecting your life, and the aspects you would like to change.
We will also ask you to explain how long you have been addicted to the substance, what the substance(s) are and what your recovery goals might look like.
By arming ourselves with this knowledge, we will now be in the best place to recommend the right kind of centre and treatment for you.

Also at the heart of the rehab process, you will be allowed to develop a whole host of skills and techniques to help you better cope with triggers and stressors in the outside world that might have either led or contributed to your addiction.
