Dr. Walter J. Matweychuk
Psychologist, Ph.D.
I have written a book Overcoming Your Addictions which shows you how to apply the principles of Rational Emotive Behavior Therapy and CBT to your self-defeating addictions. To overcome an addiction you first need to learn to accept yourself unconditionally with your addiction. Your self-defeating addictive behavior does not diminish your worth as a person. Putting yourself down will not help you overcome your addiction. Secondly, you need to learn to build your discomfort tolerance for urges, develop a healthy network of friends who will not lead you back to your addiction, and a vitally absorbing interest in life that makes your life meaningful.

Therapist, LPC, MC
Substance Abuse is the overindulgence or reliance on an addictive substance. It does not matter if the substance is legal or illegal, if it has addictive qualities, it can become addictive. Illicit drugs (e.g., cocaine and heroin), certain prescription drugs, alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine are all considered addictive substances.
The overuse of addictive drugs can lead to a Substance Use Disorder (SUD). When cravings are unmanageable, work and home-life suffer, and thoughts are consumed with plans to use, professional help should be considered.
Therapy can absolutely help with the psychological effects of addiction and recovery. Many therapy modalities are available to help individuals struggling with addiction move on to happier, healthier lives.
