How to enhance your recovery experience by Options Okanagan Treatment Center in Kelowna, British Columbia treating drug addiction and recovery
Letting go, the individual will power (self) is an important part in the recovery process. The attitude of saying you can do it yourself is what stands in the way of recovery. To make a new life possible, one should consider developing relationships with people who have already overcome the power of drugs and alcohol. Individuals struggling with drug and substance abuse tend to make vain attempts to manage the drug or drinking abuse on their own.
Well, it is possible to quit for some time, but you will find yourself returning to your old habits and this time, dependence on drugs becomes even worse. People tend to make schedules for themselves, for instance drinking only during the weekends, only to realize that they are having problems coping with the withdrawal effects. One will develop anxiety, irritability, agitation and even nausea which stops only when they take the substance.
Bottom line is that the ‘Do-It-Yourself’ method is not quite effective. In this case, reaching out to those who have recovered from such, counselors and even therapists will offer support and the comfort required to kick off the old habits and develop new ones.
What Leads To a New Life Is New Ideas and Attitudes
Everyone, even those who don not suffer from any kind of addiction fear the unknown. We all take comfort in what we are familiar with, even if it is not beneficial but making a change takes courage. However, the fear of having to create a new behavior tends to create life-threatening situations. For instance, the fear of leaving an abusive and violent spouse keeps people in a marriage which could be harmful.
Ideally, the fear of facing the guilt and shame of drug abuse prevents patients from seeking assistance. But willing to reach out for help is the first step in creating new ideas and attitudes. Learning from people who have made it and ideally created new skills is what builds confidence. Letting go of the old habits and creating new ones will take time, but patience and emulating those who have made it will be of much help. Also, taking advantage of professional treatment and group recovery programs will aid in letting go.
