Defining the Problem

So this section is all about figuring out exactly how bad of a problem do you really have? We're going to talk about different or various ways to look at addiction and the different questions or categories or aspects that you can explore the issue from. Because it's important for you to decide for yourself. Number one, do you have a problem at all? And number two, if so, how bad is it? And the reason why this is so important is because once you get your head wrapped around exactly what. What problem you have and how bad it is, it's much easier to get motivated on how to fix it. The number one problem that keeps people stuck with any kind of addiction or substance use disorder is the fact that they don't really understand exactly what they're dealing with. And because of that, they make mistakes on how to solve the problem. Which is why in this section, we're going to clear all that up for you. Now, I've got it broken down for you in little mini categories so that you can explore each category and think about addiction, alcoholism, substance use disorder, whatever you want to call it, from every different angle. And once you've reviewed all those sections, you're going to do a writing assignment where you explore for yourself. Given all that information, you know, what conclusions have you come to about what kind of problem do you have? Do you have a problem, what level is it at, and all that kind of stuff. See you in the next section.
