Addictions counselling gives you tools to identify negative habits and separate yourself from the symptoms of addiction.
An activity becomes an addiction when you no longer have control over its use. If you find it necessary to engage with the habit at certain times or during certain events, you may be addicted.
A persistent focus on the addiction and the harmful repetition of engagement in particular behaviours are hallmarks of addiction. When confronted, blaming others or engaging in denial can also be signs of an addiction issue.
