Avhengighet/gjenoppretting:

      https://www.addictioncenter.com - Avhengighetssenter er et gratis nettbasert informasjonssenter som lager pedagogiske artikler om rusmisbruk og samtidig forekommende atferds- og psykiske lidelser for mennesker i alle demografier over hele landet. 

 

I stedet for å gi direkte medisinsk behandling, samarbeider Addiction Center med nasjonalt anerkjente behandlingstilbud for å gi behandlingsrådgivning, rehabiliteringsplassering og forsikrings-/økonomiske konsultasjoner for de som søker hjelp. Siden vår har også en 24/7 konfidensiell hotline som kan matche en person med det beste behandlingssenteret for deres unike behov.

      https://www.addictionguide.com -Avhengighetsguide er det eneste nettstedet for avhengighet og psykisk helse som er grunnlagt av en styresertifisert avhengighetsspesialist, en lenge restituert rusavhengig og ektefeller til rusavhengige. Vi er her for å gi pålitelig informasjon om avhengighet og bedring for å veilede rusavhengige og deres kjære til et lykkeligere og sunnere liv.

          https://www.alcoholhelp.com/Treatment/AlcoholPrevention/Alcoholhelp.com - Forebygging av alkoholbruk er en av de mest effektive måtene å redusere alkoholrelaterte kostnader og skader. Alkoholmisbruk er ansvarlig for å ta livet av titusenvis av liv hvert år og forårsake smertefulle konsekvenser som leverskade, trusler mot ens velvære, abstinenssymptomer og dysfunksjonelle forhold. For yngre individer kan forebygging av alkoholbruk redusere sannsynligheten for å utvikle rusforstyrrelser (SUD) når de blir eldre.

      https://alcoholrehabhelp.org/addiction/effects/cancer/ -Hjelp til alkoholrehabilitering - Vi har alle hørt den vanlige setningen: "Drikk med måte." Det viser seg at denne setningen kan være viktigere enn vi trodde. Nyere studier har vist at ingen alkoholinntak er trygt for helsen vår og kan forårsake kreft. Alkohol er et kreftfremkallende stoff på nivå 1, helt opp med tobakk og asbest, noe som betyr at det er et stoff som forårsaker kreft.

      https://alluredetox.com - Allure Detox er en ny måte å starte livet på igjen. Avhengighet er en sykdom med ensomhet og isolasjon. Vanlig bruk av narkotika og alkohol avskjærer oss fra de tingene vi setter mest pris på – venner, familier og vårt høyere selv. For å komme oss, må vi komme tilbake i kontakt med disse glemte aspektene av livene våre. Så når vi endelig blir rene og edru, er det siste vi trenger mer adskillelse fra menneskene vi elsker og delene av livene våre vi en gang syntes var givende. Det vi trenger er å dukke opp for livet igjen, ikke dypere adskillelse.

      https://freebythesea.com/addiction-resources/ -Free By the Sea: Sunset View Drug and Alcohol Recovery Center – Skadene forårsaket av rusmisbruk påvirker ikke bare personen som kjemper mot alkohol- eller narkotikaavhengighet. Effektene av avhengighet påvirker også venner og familiemedlemmer nær individet.

En annen oppsiktsvekkende statistikk er at opioiddødsfall var 2,3 ganger høyere enn dødsfall i bilulykker og 2,2 ganger høyere enn drap. Mye av dette dødsfallet tilskrives fremveksten av fentanyl.

      https://magnoliacitydetox.com/resources/ - Magnolia City Detox Det større Houston-området er et av de mest folkerike storbyområdene i USA.

Dessverre ser den også sin rimelige andel av avhengighet.

Avhengighet i Houston, Texas, er et betydelig problem. Delstaten Texas ser totalt sett en betydelig mengde narkotikasmugling ettersom den deler en 1254 mil lang grense med Mexico, en av inngangspunktene for ulovlige stoffer for å komme inn i USA. Metamfetamin, kokain og heroin er blant de viktigste stoffene som blir handlet inn i staten, som har den nest største befolkningen i USA etter California.

Enten rusmisbruk er involvert med ulovlige stoffer eller lovlig ervervede stoffer (som reseptbelagte medisiner og alkohol), er det svært skadelig for en persons fysiske helse, mentale helse og sosiale velvære. For å unngå eller reversere disse negative konsekvensene er det viktig å oppsøke avhengighetsressurser og bistand så snart som mulig.

         https://withinhealth.com/learn/articles/eating-disorders-and-addiction -Innen helseSpiseforstyrrelser som overstadig spiseforstyrrelse, atypisk anorexia nervosa, og bulimia nervosa oppstår ofte sammen med rusforstyrrelser. Disse forholdene, når de oppstår av seg selv, kan forårsake betydelig svekkelse i mange aspekter av en persons liv - og når de oppstår sammen, blir de fysiske, mentale og sosiale konsekvensene ofte forsterkede.

Å ha en rusavhengighet kan komplisere behandlingsresultater for spiseforstyrrelser og omvendt, og det er derfor det er viktig at enkeltpersoner får omfattende behandling som dekker begge forholdene.

With knowledge of what sober living homes are out there, we hope to give you the best options to rediscover yourself.

There is a lack of resources to help those looking to start a solid foundation in early recovery. We have heard the desperation from addicts, alcoholics, and their fearful loved ones. Early sobriety is difficult and a time when addicts are at their most vulnerable. It is imperative that there is a trusted resource where individuals can go to find a home that is safe, secure, and supportive as they launch their recovery.

Taste Recovery wants to shine a light on this industry in a positive way. We hope to highlight the professionals that are doing everything in their power to ensure a safe, stable, and sober environment, while providing structure and support to those that live in their homes.

Taste Recovery offers those searching for a sober living an opportunity to find a home that best fits their individual needs. We believe that this will benefit each individual’s recovery by providing a new community that offers confidence and security. Recovery transcends when addicts and alcoholics find their sober tribe. We can’t do this alone. It takes a village, a home, a tribe, a community. Let us be a part of your journey as you trudge the road to happy destiny.

         https://withinhealth.com/learn/articles/eating-disorders-and-addiction - WithinHealth - Eating disorders like binge eating disorder, atypical anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa often co-occur with substance use disorders. These conditions, when they occur on their own, can cause significant impairment in many aspects of a person’s life—and when they occur together, the physical, mental, and social consequences are often compounded.

Having a substance addiction can complicate eating disorder treatment outcomes and vice versa, which is why it’s essential that individuals receive comprehensive treatment that addresses both conditions.

It should come as no surprise that cyberbullying has become a major issue. All that has happened is that an age-old problem has made its way into the digital world.

But they are often accompanied by co-occurring mental health disorders, which can contribute to and complicate the conditions. 

The causes and symptoms of many of these disorders can be similar, which may be why they tend to exist together at such a high rate. This can also make it hard to discern which is the primary condition and which is the secondary issue, which may impact treatment recommendations.

Still, experts are continuing to research and work on different methods that could help people dealing with more than one mental health condition at once.

 

 

Education/Employment:

 

        https://www.bestcolleges.com/psychology/bachelors/affordable/ - Best Colleges - If you are fascinated by human nature, want to connect with people through your work, and can listen in an empathetic way, an online bachelor's in psychology or bachelor's in counseling could be a good fit for you. While these two fields are related, a counseling degree focuses more on that specific field, while a bachelor's in psychology covers additional theory in subfields like abnormal and social psychology. With both degrees, you can pursue a master's in counseling, which is a requirement for counselor licensure in most states.

Like most bachelor's degree programs, both psychology and counseling programs usually require students to earn approximately 120 credits. They take around four years of full-time study to complete at most of the top-ranked accredited colleges. However, requirements vary by school and program, so check specific requirements on program websites. Read on to learn more details about bachelor's in psychology and bachelor's in counseling programs, including courses, careers, and admission requirements.

Role Playing Games: Effects and Benefits for Our Mental Health (Research provided by the University of Toronto)

          https://www.medievalcollectibles.com/how-ttrpgs-benefit-mental-health/ Doctors and child psychologists have long used play as a therapy, and there’s reason to think play can work as a therapy for adults. 

 

Play provides a context where those with mental challenges like depression, anxiety, or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can work through situations they find difficult to process and understand why and how they struggle with them.

 

This makes using a tabletop role-playing game (TTRPG) a unique yet promising method of improving mental health among kids and adults. The problem-solving opportunities and interpersonal collaboration involved in role-playing games have therapeutic potential for those struggling with mental illness or disability. 

 

TTRPGs deeply engage a wide range of mental and interpersonal skills, providing a safe, nonjudgmental, imaginative, and fun environment where players can creatively work through their trauma or cognitive difficulties. 

But are role-playing games proven effective in boosting mental health? Let’s delve more into the fascinating world of TTRPG and where it stands on mental health.

           https://www.fantasygroundsacademy.com/post/mental-health-benefits-of-role-playing-games - Fantasy Grounds Academy - Role-playing games, or RPGs for short, include popular games like Magic, The Gathering, and Dungeons & Dragons. These games are not only fun — but they offer unique benefits that can improve mental health — something significant in an age of social-distance and world pandemics. Role-playing games are different from traditional video games, like Minecraft, in that they are traditionally played in person. Although regular video games are beneficial for mental health —— role-playing games can offer an even more significant benefit because they provide face-to-face interaction with others and facilitate a deeper connection. Themes of capability, self-confidence, and heroism are pretty familiar with role-playing games. These are themes that promote positive mental health and coping, which is one of the many reasons why RPGs are so helpful in mental health. Let’s take a more in-depth look at the impact of RPGs on mental health.
