Challenges with Substance or Behaviours
Many people use substances such as drugs or alcohol or engage in certain behaviours to relax, have fun, experiment, or cope with stress.
For some people, however, the use of substances or engaging in certain behaviours can become problematic because it can lead to a compulsive engagement with a stimulus (substance use or behaviours), despite harmful consequences, making it challenging to maintain a healthy life.
An over-reliance on substances or activities can result in an inability to connect into life and other people in ways that will ultimately bring greater fulfillment.
Has your substance use or behaviour become a problem?
Stressors, such as job loss, workplace injury, relationship problems or separation, etc., can greatly impact your substance use or behaviour, causing engagement with a stimulus to go
from non-problematic to problematic.
These 4 areas will help you to get some clarity and
understanding of your relationship with a particular substance
or behaviour:
