  • What Are “Twelve-Step” Programs?
    What are “Twelve-Step” Programs? Traditional Twelve-Step programs outline a course of action for recovering from an addiction whereby participants proceed through twelve core developmental stages. Twelve-Step programs are a form of self-help in which members of a fellowship struggling with the same problem support each other. The Twelve-Step program originated with Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) (http://aa.org). According to AA, the twelve steps are as follows: (1) We admitted we were powerless over alcohol—that our lives had become unmanageable. (2) Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. (3) Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of God as we understood Him. (4) Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. (5) Admitted to God, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. (6) Were entirely ready to have God remove all these defects of character. (7) Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. (8) Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing tomake amends to them all. (9) Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. (10) Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. (11) Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with God, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. (12) Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these Steps, we tried to carry this message to alcoholics, and to practice these principles in all our affairs.

  • Process Addictions
    Defining, Identifying and Treating Process Addictions PRESENTED BY SUSAN L. ANDERSON, LMHC, NCC, CSAT - C Definitions Process addictions – a group of disorders that are characterized by an inability to resist the urge to engage in a particular activity. Behavioral addiction is a form of addiction that involves a compulsion to repeatedly perform a rewarding non-drug-related behavior – sometimes called a natural reward – despite any negative consequences to the person's physical, mental, social, and/or financial well-being. Behavior persisting in spite of these consequences can be taken as a sign of addiction. Stein, D.J., Hollander, E., Rothbaum, B.O. (2009). Textbook of Anxiety Disorders. American Psychiatric Publishers. American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM) As of 2011 ASAM recognizes process addictions in its formal addiction definition: Addiction is a primary, chronic disease of pain reward, motivation, memory, and related circuitry. Dysfunction in these circuits leads to characteristic biological, psychological, social, and spiritual manifestations. This is reflected in an individual pathologically pursuing reward and/or relief by substance use and other behaviors. Addictive Personality? An addictive personality may be defined as a psychological setback that makes a person more susceptible to addictions. This can include anything from drug and alcohol abuse to pornography addiction, gambling addiction, Internet addiction, addiction to video games, overeating, exercise addiction, workaholism and even relationships with others (Mason, 2009). Experts describe the spectrum of behaviors designated as addictive in terms of five interrelated concepts which include: patterns habits compulsions impulse control disorders physiological addiction Such a person may switch from one addiction to another, or even sustain multiple overlapping addictions at different times (Holtzman, 2012).
