Even the most well-meaning addict cannot face addiction alone. All too often family members become enablers rather than being able to provide actual help for a substance abuse problem. Addiction is hard to break; it requires that the person who is suffering from the addiction enter into a program for substance abuse treatment in St Louis in order for that person to regain control of his or her life. First Step: Recognize Regardless of the program, no treatment will work until the addict truly and genuinely wants to change. This usually means hitting rock bottom and, for each addict, the definition of what that is changes. A court order and family threats may prompt the addict to say that he or she will get help, but the lessons won't stick until the addict comes to the help on his or her own accord. The person must come to the realization that life would be better without the substance he or she chose to abuse. Second Step: Get Help Once a person who suffers from addiction seeks help because he or she recognizes that help is needed, substance abuse treatment in St Louis may work to have a positive and lasting effect in that person's life. The changes that the person will have to make will be great. New friends, new hobbies, new places to go and be are all things that will have to be considered. Once the physical addiction is kicked, the situations that trigger the mental addiction need to be eliminated. Each person has different triggers, but often experiences and people associated with the substance abuse have to be removed from the person's life. Then the person must realize that he or she will always be addicted to the drug, and even one more use can lead to abuse in the future.
