1st Strategies for those in Addiction or Sensing there May Be a Problem

Addiction, Health, Medicine, Self-Help, Sexuality

Often it’s difficult to know where to start when dealing with Addiction or if you or a loved one might think that there is a problem. On this episode we look at some of the many strategies available to us as a 1st strategy, taking that first step is one of the most important things you might do on a journey.

A doctor or a Mental Health Care Plan might be the way to go or Rehab and Detox or a 12 step program might work for you. Interventions or Meditation can work or there are a range of telephone or online resources to use, many designed for our LGBTIQ+ community. Thorne Harbour Health and Queerspace offer free services and we have talked about Headspace, Hello Sunday Morning, Real Drug Talk, Quit Victoria, the 100Day Challenge, SHARC and Smart Recovery on Hooked on previous shows. Lifeline, Beyond Blue, Switchboard and AA all have great phone services as well.

We also take a look at pornography (not literally) as an Addiction of the Week and learn about NoFap and SLAA.
