Anxiety
Anxiety causes significant discomfort by making you feel worried or nervousness about many issues. Anxiety last all day and it is difficult to experience any relief. When worry or nervousness impacts school, work and your daily activities, you may need to seek professional help. The discomfort can prevent you from engaging in daily life activities and enjoying what life has to offer.
Substance Use
Substance use or misuse such as alcohol can be used as an escape from life and work challenges. When someone is unable to perform at work, or they miss out on special activities in their personal lives, assessing whether or not drinking is problematic should be considered. Substance use treatment includes models such as harm reduction or abstinence.
