      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      What can I do to help someone addicted to drugs?

      Learn about addiction: Educate yourself on drug addiction, its causes, symptoms, and treatment options. This knowledge will help you better understand the person's struggles and provide informed support.

      1. Approach with empathy: Start a conversation with the person about their drug use in a non-judgmental and empathetic manner. Express your concerns for their well-being and the impact of their drug use on their life.
      2. Encourage professional help: Encourage the person to seek professional assistance from a medical professional, therapist, or addiction counselor. Offer to help them find suitable resources and provide support as they take steps towards treatment.
      3. Offer emotional support: Be available to listen and provide emotional support throughout the recovery process. Maintain open communication and offer a safe space for the individual to share their experiences and feelings.
      4. Suggest support groups: Recommend joining support groups such as Narcotics Anonymous (NA) or SMART Recovery, which provide a community of individuals with similar experiences and offer guidance and encouragement throughout the recovery process.
      5. Set boundaries: Establish clear boundaries to protect your own well-being and communicate your expectations about the person's behavior. Be firm yet compassionate, making it clear that you will not enable their drug use.
      6. Assist with lifestyle changes: Help the person develop healthier habits, such as engaging in physical activity, improving their diet, and finding alternative ways to manage stress. Offer to participate in these activities together to provide additional support and motivation.
      7. Be patient: Recovery from drug addiction is a long-term process, and relapses may occur. Understand that setbacks are part of the journey, and continue to offer support and encouragement as the person works towards sobriety.
      8. Care for yourself: Supporting someone with drug addiction can be emotionally taxing. Ensure you are taking care of your own mental and emotional health by seeking support from friends, family, or professional counselors if needed.

      What is the 12 step method for treating addiction?

      "The 12-step method for treating addiction is a structured, peer-based approach that originated with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) in the 1930s. Since then, it has been adapted for various other substance use disorders and behavioral addictions, including Narcotics Anonymous (NA), Gamblers Anonymous (GA), and Overeaters Anonymous (OA), among others. The method is based on a set of guiding principles, known as the 12 steps, that outline a path to recovery, personal growth, and spiritual development.

      The 12 steps of the method are as follows:

      1. Admitting powerlessness over the addiction and recognizing that one's life has become unmanageable.
      2. Believing that a higher power (interpreted by each individual according to their beliefs) can restore sanity and provide support in recovery.
      3. Deciding to turn one's will and life over to the care of the higher power.
      4. Conducting a thorough and honest moral inventory of oneself.
      5. Admitting to oneself, the higher power, and another person the exact nature of one's wrongs and shortcomings.
      6. Being ready to have the higher power remove these defects of character.
      7. Humbly asking the higher power to remove one's shortcomings.
      8. Making a list of all the people harmed by one's addiction and being willing to make amends to them.
      9. Making direct amends to those harmed, whenever possible, except when doing so would cause harm to them or others.
      10. Continuing to take personal inventory and promptly admitting when one is wrong.
      11. Seeking to improve one's conscious contact with the higher power through prayer and meditation, asking for knowledge of the higher power's will and the strength to carry it out.
      12. Having experienced a spiritual awakening as a result of these steps, carrying the message to others struggling with addiction and practicing these principles in all aspects of life.

      The 12-step method emphasizes the importance of peer support, mutual aid, and the sharing of personal experiences as a means of overcoming addiction. Participants typically attend regular meetings, where they share their stories, listen to others, and work through the steps at their own pace. Many 12-step programs also encourage members to find a sponsor, an experienced member who has worked through the steps and can provide guidance, support, and accountability during the recovery process."


      Should I stay close to my home or go away to treat my addiction?

      The decision of whether to stay close to home or go away for addiction treatment depends on various individual factors and personal preferences. Each option has its own set of advantages and potential drawbacks. Here are some points to consider when making your decision:

      Advantages of staying close to home:

      • Familiar environment: Staying close to home allows you to remain in a familiar environment, which can provide comfort and reduce stress during the initial stages of recovery.
      • Support network: Being near friends and family members can offer emotional support, encouragement, and motivation throughout the treatment process.
      • Accessibility: Local treatment options may be more accessible and affordable, especially if transportation and travel costs are a concern.
      • Continuity of care: Staying close to home may facilitate a smoother transition to aftercare services and ongoing support within your community.

      Potential drawbacks of staying close to home:

      • Triggers and temptations: Staying near home may expose you to environmental triggers and temptations that could increase the risk of relapse.
      • Limited treatment options: Your local area may not offer the specific treatment programs or services that are best suited to your individual needs.

      Advantages of going away for treatment:

      • Fresh start: Traveling to a new location can provide a sense of starting fresh and allow for greater focus on your recovery journey.
      • Distance from triggers: Being away from familiar surroundings may help minimize exposure to triggers and reduce the temptation to use substances.
      • Specialized treatment options: Going away for treatment may provide access to specialized programs or services that are not available in your local area.
      • Privacy and anonymity: Attending treatment in a different location can offer greater privacy and anonymity, which may be important for some individuals.

      Potential drawbacks of going away for treatment:

      • Limited support network: Being away from friends and family might make it challenging to receive emotional support during the recovery process.
      • Increased costs: Traveling for treatment may involve additional expenses, such as transportation and accommodations.
      • Transition to aftercare: Returning to your home community after treatment might make it more difficult to access aftercare services or continue with the same support network.
