is also called a substance use disorder or chemical dependency \u2013 is a term that describes someone\u2019s inability to control or moderate the use of substances.<\/p><p>Drugs affect both our brains and our behaviours and losing the ability to moderate the use of substances has, can and will, unfortunately, take more away from us than it gives back.<\/p><p>Across the globe, drug use is a growing concern. In America, for example, drug overdose deaths have\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.addictioncenter.com\/addiction\/addiction-statistics\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">more than tripled<\/a>\u00a0since 1990, and only 10 per cent of the population receive treatment for their addictions. In Europe, Spain has one of the highest substance abuse problems, with\u00a035.5 per cent\u00a0of people attending rehab for alcohol addiction, and 24.6 per cent for cocaine.<\/p><p>Substance use disorder,\u00a0affects the brain and our behaviours. It is defined by an inability to control or moderate the use of a particular substance.<\/p><p>Initially, with many addictions, use of the substance can be classified as recreational. However with repeated use and chemical \u201crewards\u201d in the form of pleasurable sensations, the mental obsession can be formidable.<\/p><p>Physically the body becomes reliant on the substance over time. Tolerance to the chemical can develop and the need to recreate that initial \u2018high\u2019 leads to an acceleration in use (both in terms of amount and frequency).<\/p><p>The speed at which a person descends into dependency depends on many factors, but no matter the substance, the consequences can be equally as damaging.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-9c4072f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"9c4072f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">What causes Drug Addiction?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7b53391 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"7b53391\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>More than\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.addictioncenter.com\/addiction\/addiction-statistics\/\">90 per cent<\/a>\u00a0of people who have an addiction started to drink alcohol or use drugs before they were 18 years old.<\/p><p>As with many addictions, the use of substances can be classified as recreational.

The symptoms vary in accordance with the severity of the problem but it is proven to be primary, progressive, chronic and ultimately fatal.<\/p><p>Accepted by both the American Medical Association (AMA) and World Health Organisation (WHO) as a disease in the 1950\u2019s, it is easily identifiable as the sufferer has a complete lack of control over their desire\/need to consume alcohol. The sufferer\u2019s relationship with alcohol can seem insane to others but to the individual it is a vital \u2018coping mechanism\u2019 without which they cannot function.

A central nervous system depressant, it is a small molecule that is able to enter almost all tissues of the body therefore prolonged abuse causes physical damage as well as deterioration in mental and emotional health. The pleasurable or euphoric effects of the chemical mean it can become an addiction, destroying relationships, careers and ultimately lives.<\/p><p>One possible explanation is that the addict is looking to fill an internal void. They use alcohol as a way of self medicating in order to cope. Initially alcohol can appear to relieve or numb this.<\/p><p>However, as the body adapts to the toxins, it develops a tolerance and the euphoric effects lessen. Denial is a major symptom with the sufferer believing that alcohol is the solution rather than the problem. Although alcohol may temporarily numb the symptoms, in reality the \u2018void\u2019 continues to grow.<\/p><p>Denial prolongs and increases the pain \u2013 many seek alcohol as an attempt at finding a solution not recognising that it is the problem.<\/p><p>The greater the tolerance, the greater the frequency and amount required to achieve the same effect and the greater the toll on the system.\u00a0Co-existing disorders such as anxiety, depression, high risk behaviours, paranoia and a sense of detachment from the world are common amongst those with this condition.<\/p><p>For some there is an hereditary aspect whereby a genetic predisposition may lead to alcoholism. For others, circumstances and environmental factors can encourage a compulsion to drink.<\/p><p>At Camino we adapt the treatment plan according to the individual.

In addition to this, an alcoholic displays denial toward their condition.<\/p><p>Physical symptoms include cravings, withdrawal, increased tolerance, seizures and poor health. Mental manifestations include an alibi system or constant need for justification, self pity, secrecy and isolation as well as an overwhelming obsession with alcohol.<\/p><p>Eventually the obsession to drink is stronger than the individual\u2019s value system leading to drunk driving, infidelity, deceit, inability to fulfill responsibilities, arguments\u2026 the list goes on.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-66b5f85 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"66b5f85\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">What is Alcohol Detox?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-daabc66 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"daabc66\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/how-we-help\/detox\/\">Detoxification<\/a>\u00a0is the first step in the process.

It isn\u2019t always the case that a feeling of lowness means depression.<\/p><p>What is required to truly understand depression in a person, then, is the observation of change over time and a change in everyday behavioural patterns.<\/p><p>If you feel as though you might have depression, or at least experience depressive tendencies, ask yourself these questions:<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-750de67 elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"750de67\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\"><li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Have you experienced a negative, persistent shift in mood?<\/span><\/li><li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Have you lost interest in activities that you used to enjoy?<\/span><\/li><li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Have you experienced a change in patterns of sleep, appetite or energy?<\/span><\/li><li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Do you find yourself having repetitive, negative patterns of thought?<\/span><\/li><li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\">Are you finding it hard to focus or remember things that were once easy?<\/span><\/li><\/ul><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-600ec9b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"600ec9b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>If you feel as though you\u2019re experiencing depression,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/contact-us\/\">please call us here<\/a>\u00a0for a no obligation consultation with one of our professionals.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d5bf1fa elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d5bf1fa\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">How We Treat Depression<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6243c0b elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"6243c0b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>Here at\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/\">Camino Recovery Centre<\/a>, our experts are dedicated to providing individually tailored depression treatment that is personalised to your preferred method of recovery.<\/p><p>Whether that\u2019s working in groups with others to overcome your depression, or working alone in a one-to-one environment with a professional, our treatment options are open and available to help you and your loved ones make the most of their time here.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3072de9 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"3072de9\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">Types of Depression Counselling<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-98633e3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"98633e3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><h3>Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) for depression<\/h3><p>CBT is the most common form of therapy, and it\u2019s used worldwide to help treat the signs and symptoms of depression easily.<\/p><p>Often, depression is caused because of our perception of things in the world, and in most instances, what is required is some behavioural therapy to help train our brains to think and act differently.<\/p><p>We are our own worst critic, and our inner voice is often wired to think negatively before it can think positively. CBT helps you find ways to challenge the negative assumptions you might have about yourself, and it\u2019ll teach you some essential coping mechanisms for dealing with what life throws our way.<\/p><h3>Dialectic behaviour therapy (DBT) for depression<\/h3><p>DBT is commonly used in more individualised cases of depression. It\u2019s a form of CBT that tackles the extreme emotional thoughts that exist in severe cases of depression.<\/p><p>The focus with DBT is self-acceptance and internal change. This form of therapy is extremely effective for helping those with depression feel differently within themselves, understand who they are and how to deal with their day-to-day lives.<\/p><h3>One-to-one therapy for depression<\/h3><p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/treatment\/individual-therapy\/\">One-to-one therapy<\/a>\u00a0takes place between the patient and an expert that fits your personal requirements.<\/p><p>This form of therapy allows you to explore yourself in-depth with the right help and guidance at the helm. It\u2019s a comprehensive, tailored solution to help you overhaul your internal thinking approach and begin to see the world in a new and enlightened way.<\/p><p>This is conducted in a highly supportive environment.<\/p><h3>Group therapy for depression<\/h3><p>As you might think,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/treatment\/group-sessions\/\">group therapy<\/a>\u00a0is the opposite of one-to-one therapy, and it focuses on using relatability to help guide you through your treatment.<\/p><p>Many people with depression feel that they are alone in their signs and symptoms, and group therapy can be a great way of exploring and discussing the thoughts and feelings that others have, helping you explore why you feel the way you do, and what you and others have done to combat it.<\/p><p>The idea of group therapy can of course seem quite exposing and daunting to those new to the idea of therapy. But, once this barrier has been crossed, it is often an extremely effective way of understanding your depression in a compassionate and understanding environment.<\/p><h3>Family therapy for depression<\/h3><p>Depression often causes many hardships among families, and consequently,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/treatment\/family-programme\/\">family therapy<\/a>\u00a0is the best approach to help people come to new realisations about their actions, and what can be done to repair any damage.<\/p><p>For those with depression, family therapy is a supportive and comforting environment where open conversations can be had about how depression is affecting loved ones, and it can help you and your family put the foundations in place to combat depression in the long term, not only the short term.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-2185c6e elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"2185c6e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">Why Camino<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-641cb6d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"641cb6d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>Depression is an umbrella term that is often used to describe a number of different issues in any combination.<\/p><p>When addressing the issues related to depression, it is vital that the sources of pain are identified and that the sufferer is heard and understood, and that this pain has been excavated and released. That way, the person can feel as though their voice has been heard.<\/p><p>But in our everyday lives, it can be extremely difficult to open up about depression to loved ones who depend on us for their wellbeing. It can be tough to communicate to friends about our feeling of loneliness, isolation or worthlessness, and as a result, those with depression often struggle to find a place safe enough to open up about their struggles and trusting those around them with their distress can be near impossible.<\/p><p>Here at the Camino Recovery Centre, our team of clinical professionals are on hand to help diagnose the issues that lead up to a person\u2019s lack of everyday functioning, negative perceptions and feelings of worthlessness. By dismantling the wall brick-by-brick, we guide you on the journey of working through emotional blocks and finding your joy again.<\/p><p>For a no obligation conversation with one of our professionals,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.caminorecovery.com\/contact-us\/\">speak with an expert<\/a>\u00a0today.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-tab-title elementor-tab-mobile-title\" aria-selected=\"false\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tab\" tabindex=\"-1\" aria-controls=\"elementor-tab-content-8354\" aria-expanded=\"false\">Trauma<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"elementor-tab-content-8354\" class=\"elementor-tab-content elementor-clearfix\" data-tab=\"4\" role=\"tabpanel\" aria-labelledby=\"elementor-tab-title-8354\" tabindex=\"0\" hidden=\"hidden\"><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b71ea76 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b71ea76\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-xl\">Trauma Treatment<\/h1><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-635d47e elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"635d47e\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-image\">\u00a0<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-808bca6 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"808bca6\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">What is Emotional Trauma?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-bdd2f8d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"bdd2f8d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>Psychological Trauma or Post Traumatic Stress is best described as a \u201cwound\u201d or \u201cinternal pain\u201d that can often be the result of a\u00a0<i>perceived<\/i>\u00a0threat to safety.\u00a0<\/p><p>The word perceived is important here as it highlights the fact that an event (e.g. a burglary) can be easily brushed off by some, whilst for others the very same event can have serious long term mental and emotional repercussions.\u00a0<\/p><p>At some point after the event, if the trauma survivor (e.g. the victim of burglary) feels in any similar way violated, this could act as a trigger, opening the floodgates to a wave of pain or distress from the past. It is how the person deals with this stress that could become an unhealthy compulsion.<\/p><p>Another example is that of a soldier. In a war zone they may learn to react to the sound of a loud bang or a helicopter flying overhead by immediately getting themselves and their unit to safety. This is a survival mechanism.\u00a0<\/p><p>In civilian life however, the sound of a firework or police helicopter nearby are not potential threats to safety. The midbrain does not differentiate, the soldier is immediately and involuntarily thrown into a trauma reaction.\u00a0<\/p><p>This apparent overreaction or \u201cemotional flooding\u201d to stimuli is exhibited by an extreme reaction, often due to a build up of small things. An indicator of unresolved trauma is when the emotional reaction is disproportionate to the event.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-5972996 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"5972996\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">Why are Traumatic Memories so Powerful?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-232d1d3 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"232d1d3\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>One main theory is that people have evolved to store traumatic memories deep in the midbrain (along with the emotions at the time) as a survival mechanism.\u00a0<\/p><p>If for example a member of the tribe was attacked by a wild animal, the theory states that the survivors will have witnessed the attack and stored the memory of this traumatic incident. Hence the next time there is a threat of attack by a wild animal, the members of the tribe will react quickly in response to that threat.\u00a0<\/p><p>It is thought that those who were able to react fastest had a greater chance of surviving and passing on their genes.<\/p><p>Events that people most commonly associate as traumatic are violence, crime, war, terrorism, rape, natural disasters (earthquakes, floods, tsunamis, storms etc).\u00a0<\/p><p>In reality trauma can be a number of different things, many of which a person may dismiss as minor.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-129d173 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"129d173\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">What Causes Trauma?<\/h2><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-3473e84 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"3473e84\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><div class=\"elementor-text-editor elementor-clearfix\"><p>Infants are dependent upon primary caregivers (parents, adult family\/friends, older siblings) for survival.\u00a0<\/p><p>In order to form a healthy sense of self, connection and relationships, children need eye contact, touch, unconditional love\/affection, intimacy\/spending time, honest sharing of emotion, healthy boundaries and predictability.<\/p><p>Trauma usually occurs a response to some form of abuse or incidents where the child\u2019s legitimate needs for nurture are not met:<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a5995f elementor-icon-list--layout-traditional elementor-list-item-link-full_width elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-list\" data-id=\"7a5995f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-list.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><ul class=\"elementor-icon-list-items\"><li class=\"elementor-icon-list-item\"><i class=\"fa fa-check\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><span class=\"elementor-icon-list-text\"><b>Abandonment\/Neglect.<\/b>\u00a0These forms of abuse do not just apply to being physically alone, there are various types of emotional abandonment where a primary caregiver may be unable to emotionally connect on a number of levels due to conditions such as addiction, anxiety, depression, cultural beliefs, autism or personality disorders.

They become plagued by self-doubt and low confidence, leaving them unable to make operational decisions.<\/p><p>Burnout can lead to poor management choices, loss of business and serious errors in judgement. Poor communication with colleagues and junior staff can seriously impact office morale.<\/p><p>Executives can be reluctant to seek help as they fear this could be seen as a sign of weakness; or that their position or role in the workplace may be compromised.<\/p><\/div><div class=\"pagehalf_top_item2\"><img class=\"full_width\" title=\"Executive Burnout - a stress related mental health issue \u2013 rehab treatment centre Europe\" src=\"https:\/\/www.phoenixprogrammes.com\/images\/burnoutexecr.jpg\" alt=\"Executive Burnout - a stress related mental health issue \u2013 rehab treatment centre Europe\" \/><\/div><\/div><div>\u00a0<\/div><p>\u00a0<\/p><div><p>Alongside the emotional and mental health problems, some will experience physical health issues such as headaches, high blood pressure and digestive problems.
