A ddiction is a chronic yet treatable medical disease that involves complex interactions in an individual’s brain. Generally, these interactions relate to genetics, brain circuits, a person’s life experiences, and environment. Typically, individuals with substance use disorders or addiction engage in compulsive behaviors and it often leads to damaging consequences. It’s vital to remember that addiction doesn’t just happen in one day. Usually, several circumstances occur gradually that cause a person to engage in substance abuse. The addiction process occurs over a series of stages, and similar to other chronic diseases, it turns into a cycle. An individual might go through numerous attempts to stop engaging in substance use before realizing that addiction is a factor. However, once addiction is diagnosed, it is possible to interrupt the cycle. To do so, receiving professional help is recommended to achieve abstinence and sobriety. The likelihood of relapsing is extremely high during the early stages of recovery. At Telstone, there are multiple methods and resources available to help, including behavioral/cognitive therapies, physical/ mental health programs, and support groups. Each treatment plan is meant to encourage you or a loved one to develop sustainable tools to help manage your conditions and reduce the likelihood of drug use relapse.
