While most of my professional experience has been working with people who have physical disabilities, I have dabbled with a problem that continues to disable far too many people, drug and alcohol addiction.
Frequently, numbing your brain utilizing any drugs, alcohol or combination of these is one way many folks deal with the emotional side of disability. The risk for having doubled the problem is huge. Now you have the physical problem AND the addiction issues.
Once again, the first step toward adjusting to a disability, including addiction or the combination of both, is finding the motivation, finding the desire to do something about it. Armed with that first step, you can begin to develop a plan to make life better. It's about truly doing your best. It's about seeking help. How can I help you today?
