Welcome...

Most people when they think of addiction automatically associate it with alcohol and drugs. While substance abuse is a huge problem in modern society, addiction is not limited to it. In fact, addictions to behaviours, such as shopping, sex, gambling and more are fast becoming commonplace too. 

This blog aims to look at the honest side of addiction, including how individuals are affected by it and where they can go to get the help they need. I aim to cover all different types of addiction and look forward to receiving messages or comments about what you may like me to cover next.

Addiction has long been a dirty word but it affects many more people than you would think.
