ADDICTION TREATMENT: TRUST THE PROCESS

“The process” is a series of steps to take in order to achieve a goal, and the advice is to trust (or believe) that by following the steps you will succeed. The phrase “trust the process” has been used for years. The oldest link we found on the web is from 1974 (The Era of the New Age and New Consciousness), but we imagine the phrase is even older. In the context of addiction treatment trusting the process means sticking to a long-term plan even in the face of bad short-term outcomes. RECOVERY is not easy, but IT IS POSSIBLE. When you trust the process and become an active participant of your recovery you will learn strategies and coping skills to deal with life’s challenges so that you never need your addiction again. By trusting the process you are giving yourself a chance to live a full, complete life.

Things may look bad now, but we have a plan in place to make help you make it better.

According to the 2006 National Survey of Drug Use and Health, 5.6 million people in the United States have co-occurring SUD and mental health disorders. Co-occurring disorders can sometimes be difficult to diagnose, as symptoms of substance abuse or addiction can mask symptoms of mental illness, and symptoms of mental illness can be confused with symptoms of addiction.

In order to effectively treat SUD, individuals seeking treatment should look for addiction treatment programs that offer an integrated approach to treating co-occurring disorders.

"Recovery is all about using our power to change our beliefs that are based on faulty data." - Kevin McCormack

[i] Author Dave Gray defines belief as; everything we ‘know’ to be true.

[ii] Things we ‘know’ to be true are not actually formed upon reality, but on reality, as we have interpreted it from our experiences, observations, assumptions, and conclusions.

With alcohol, this is exactly what has occurred. There is a huge amount of belief that some people collectively hold that is not built directly on the foundation of reality.

These beliefs can include:

- Alcohol provides enjoyment - Alcohol provides relief - Alcohol is key to social situations - A party can’t really be a party without booze - Alcohol makes us funnier or more creative - Alcohol can relieve our stress or boredom

In order to change our beliefs, we need to bring the unconscious experiences, observations, assumptions, and conclusions into conscious thought. This will change the unconscious helping to free the desire to drink. And this is scientifically proven as scientists now realize that the brain is able to change and adapt in response to new experience. This is a process called neuroplasticity. [iii]
