Top addiction therapists in 43106: Bloomingburg, OH.

Addiction is the result of an individual attempting to change their emotional state - all addiction involves an individual attempting to self-medicate from an uncomfortable mental state whether that be boredom, lack of meaning, depression, anxiety, or something else. The choice of self medication may be alcohol or another substance, sexual behaviors, or something else. After the self-medication wears off the old mental state returns and the individual may be caught in a repetitive pattern of feeling shame or blame and being caught in an ongoing pattern of lapse and and relapse behaviors.
