“With substance use specifically, I treat it as connected to the trauma underneath it rather than as a standalone behavior to manage. I believe preoccupation is the primary source of dysfunction for most people.”
“With substance use specifically, I treat it as connected to the trauma underneath it rather than as a standalone behavior to manage. I believe preoccupation is the primary source of dysfunction for most people. The mind gets stuck looping on the same memory, the same fear, the same craving, and that loop runs the show until someone interrupts it.”
