Dependency & Addiction

Dependency & Addiction

Classic symptoms of addiction include lack of control and continued use of a substance despite consequences. Addiction is also characterized by preoccupation with the substance and a need for immediate gratification despite the potential for harm to self or others.

  • Do you feel a lack of control over the addiction?
  • Do you change your schedule so that you can more easily access your addiction?
  • Does your use cause financial, physical, emotional or spiritual problems in your life?
  • Does your behavior change significantly while under the influence, or do you do things you normally would not do?
  • Do you find your use increasing?

If you are concerned about an addiction in your life please call Bruce Stafford for assistance.
