Making the Decision to Seek Treatment
Often, finally making the decision that you need treatment is the hardest part of the recovery process. It can be challenging for some of our patients to determine whether their substance use has risen to the level of abuse. But there are some signs that you should be looking out for as you think about beginning treatment.
Out-of-control substance abuse tends to be marked by the following symptoms:
- Loss of interest in daily life
- Increasing tolerance
- Desire to quit but an inability to follow through
- Problems with work, school, or relationships
- Withdrawal symptoms during periods of non-use
- Intense cravings
