Helping An Employee

While it may be true that some are able to drink socially and even use medically prescribed drugs and never become addicted, many are not as fortunate. The reasons and risk factors behind addiction are complex, and abuse is often a way to escape emotional, physical or psychological pain. It is important to understand that alcohol or drug seeking behavior may have more to do with underlying issues than it does with frequency of use.

People of all ages, social-economic and education levels can be at risk for substance addiction. Overuse of any controlled substance should never be ignored as treatment it is often the only life-saving intervention available for those under addiction’s powerful hold.
