How To Stop Your Addiction Ruining Your Life
2
When we have a busy and stressful life, we can
often find it all too easy to find comfort in
certain habits and comforts. Its usually okay to
have your usual way to relax. However, when you
become reliant on something, it can soon take
over your life. What may start off as a harmless
glass of wine to help you relax after work, could
soon become a bottle-a-night addiction.To prevent
your life from spiralling out of control, you
need to put a stop to any addictions as soon as
you notice you have a problem.

Why Do You Want To Quit?
  • You need to be clear about the reasons you want
    to quit your addiction. Whether you are addicted
    to alcohol, drugs, gambling, or food.
  • If you have a valid reason, then you will be more
    likely to succeed. The key is having an important
    reason that can really spur you on to reach your
    goal. Maybe your addiction is causing you health
    problems?
  • Is it having an effect on your relationships with
    friends and family members? Whatever the reason,
    make sure it is clear in your head before you
    start to detox.

Talk To Friends And Family
  • If your family and friends know what you are
    going through, they will be able to support you
    throughout the process.
  • They can even help you stay away from whatever
    it is you are trying to give up.
  • If you are trying to give up alcohol, for
    example, they might invite you on a night out if
    they do not know that you are trying to go cold
    turkey.

5
Set Measurable Goals
  • One reason why people fail when trying to quit an
    addiction is because they do not set realistic
    and measurable goals.
  • If you set yourself short-term goals, you are
    more likely to meet them. Rather than setting a
    large goal to reach at some point far away in the
    future.
  • Small goals keep you motivated and let you
    measure your progress.

6
Sign Up For Rehab
  • If your addiction is quite advanced and has a
    strong grip on your life, it may be a good idea
    to sign up for a rehab program like Sovereign
    Health.
  • Seeking professional help means you are less
    likely to fail and you will also be fully
    supported by those who deal with addictions on a
    daily basis.
  • You can choose whether to register for a day
    programme where you just go in for your meetings
    and treatments or for a residential program.

  • With this latter option, you will live in the
    rehab center until you have beaten your
    addiction.
  • If you ever feel like relapsing, contact your
    former rehab clinic.
  • They will be able to support you straight away
    and prevent you from falling back into an
    addiction.
