With the ever-growing popularity of popular online games, poker sites, and even online pornography, more and more people are succumbing to a life of increased isolation from those around them. The dangers of this sort of escapism, however, are numerous, as people quickly become addicted to the ease and anonymity this disconnection provides; and if you find yourself in this situation, through counselling North Cowichan BC, therapy can help. While many consider this sort of escapism to be a regular part of life, people are now turning to these fantasy worlds with increased regularity as coping mechanisms, a way to handle their loneliness, lack of confidence, or sense of failure. For some people, of course, their introversion is a simple preference to avoid crowds, a harmless affectation ingrained in their personality, but for others their loneliness becomes a self-imposed prison, one that is almost impossible to break free from. So while there is nothing inherently wrong with a modicum of escapism, for those who have found that their escapism has become their regular life, speaking to a trained counsellor North Cowichan BC, therapist, or psychologist can provide you with a way out. What many don’t realize is that with almost anything else, when people begin to depend on fantasy to help them cope it can quickly develop into a full blown addiction; as many gaming, gambling, and pornography addicts can surely attest too. But through counselling North Cowichan BC, psychotherapy provides a proven way to break free of the loneliness and isolation, a process that helps you address the key issues in your life and helps you develop the skills necessary to reconnect with the world. So if you feel imprisoned by a self-imposed alienation, know that there is hope and happiness available to you. Contact us today to see how we can help.
