Hi Marc
Sadly some individuals give up on Substance Misuse only to abuse themselves in some other way and one of the most common is turning to Alcohol. Believing you are doing particularly well because you no longer use illicit drugs.…

Hi Matthew
I would suggest that using everynight would make it highly unlikely that your client was a recreational user . I would be interested to know if the Doctor confirmed client's disclosure of Cocaine use and method of treatment i.e Detox…

Hi Stephen,
FYI -I have heard 1000s of multi-substance abusers who were addicted to crack, smack and/or coke say that it was far easier for them to give up drugs than to quit smoking...
Basically - treatment is no better than…

Hi Steve
I am employed by an agency in the UK that works with individuals with substance misuse issues. Many of our clients have been stuck in the cycle of addiction since their early teens. I have access to funding for 12 step and many other…

Steve,
Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge. I have done something similar with my ex-alcoholic client. Built the self-confidence and self-believe before dealing client's alcohol issue. Unfortunately, alcohol is part of a social…

I have dealt with heroin addiction. I had a client that was addicted for 22 years. Her biggest issue in recovery was self esteem. She believed that was who she was. Once her self esteem grew she was able to stay clean. She has now been clean for two…

The very fact that NRT doesn't work is indicative of the fact that nicotine is not an addictive drug, the fact that in the original tests the monkey's that were 'self-administering nicotine by pressing a lever that turned on…

Sorry John - I assumed that you still held with your original position as posted in your first post on this thread:
"Smoking is not an addiction. It is a habit."
And Duncan
Can you be cleared about what you are saying? Are you saying…

Thanks James for the advice i agree what may persuade one may push another into defence. We have clients that are referred into 12 step programmes (re-habs) they are implicit in what they believe. Clients are physically and psychologicaly addicted…
Duncan Murray replied to stephen mc glame's discussion 'Is There Any Evidence Anywhere That Hypnotherapy Can Help Overcome A Heroin/Crack Habit'
Hi all
Nicotine is not addictive - the analysis of the NRT 'fraud' of the NHS provision of £130million p.a. claims show a true success rate of 1.65% - with an intake of 25 plus time the level of nicotine from smoking - well…

James,
I think you need to read the start of that post again. The point where I concede the argument about a combination of chemicals. The point I made was that "Nicotine" is not addictive.

Hi John,
Thanks for sharing your detailed facts. I agree with your facts. I normally smoke 20 a day but if I am under a lot of stress, I sometimes end up smoking more. This brings the question why do I smoke more when I'm stressed? My…

Beware of this... the frame can cut both ways! Sometimes the "it's not your fault" frame can free people from believing they are somehow 'weak' or psychologically 'deficient', beliefs that can be…
