A member asked:
Can you tell me of any quick advice on how to start ending an addiction?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Admit the problem: Is the starting point. To some extent it depends on the addiction, and what you mean by addiction. If it is alcohol or drugs, there are many treatment programs, both outpatient and inpatient, and formal and self-help programs. If we are talking about tobacco, gambling and other behavioral issues, there are different approaches to these. Talk to your doctor or a mental health worker for referral.
