New Years Resolutions
Are you thinking of giving up drinking or using any other chemicals in the New Year?
You're not alone. Hidden behind all the holiday cheer, for a lot of people unable to enjoy the festivities, lurks the "holiday blues."
Will it be another year of broken promises, relationships, jobs, friends eventually turning there back on you?
YOU CAN STOP IT NOW.
Year-end reflections also contribute heavily to the problem. Buddha said, "We count our miseries carefully, and accept our blessings without much thought."
The past year's disappointments, strained relationships, loss, work, and money concerns can take centre stage.
Then our current affairs seem to join all the past ones, creating a chain of pain. Then, they can gather together to make a pool of pain and the recipe for despair is created.
You maybe worried that your job may be at risk, and can lead to higher rates of drinking or drug taking.
This will further reduce your capacity to do your job well and wil make you more vulnerable, if redundancies are looming.
If you are one of the unlucky ones who have been made redundant then you need to give yourself the best chance of getting back.
It may seem the worst thing that could happen to you but, you can turn it around and see the positives.
A chance to get into a programme will give you the perfect opportunity to get sober, fit and ready to go out and succeed, in all areas of your life: home and family, work and colleagues, friends and neighbours.
In every situation there is a positive, you just need to get away from the place that your in for a short period of time,to get the help you need.
If you really want it, it is there!
The secret is to get support. The tendency is to withdraw and isolate when we feel bad. But we have to reach out, get connected, and share about it instead.
Age old wisdom tells us you can't be a lone pond. You'll eventually dry up. You have to connect to a stream that leads to a river that leads to the ocean.
Give us a call and discuss your options confidentially.
