A Young Male Requires Therapy For His Acute Depression, Relationship Issues, And For His Drug And Alcohol Dependency
Roughly three months ago I had dinner with a thirty-five-year-old man named Benjamin who suffers from acute depression, has relationship difficulties, and who is addicted to drugs and alcohol. As affirmed by Benjamin, it is his alcohol and drug dependency and his extreme depression that has had the most to do with his unceasing relationship problems.
As articulated by Benjamin, he is so defeated by his relationship problems and by both of his medical issues that he in actual fact has little or no impetus to accomplish much of anything. What is particularly unfortunate about this is that earlier in his life, Benjamin completed three semesters of grad school in Spanish literature.
Benjamin's circumstance makes me question if he is an illustration of an individual who can look in the mirror and perceive his drinking problems and drug addiction and do something positive about these problems. Or, conversely, if he a person who has to hit the bottom of the barrel before he gets drug and alcohol dependency rehabilitation that results in lasting sobriety.
It may be asked how rehabilitation would help his alcohol and drug addiction. For starters, there are quite a few recently produced physician-prescribed drugs that can help Benjamin through the alcohol and drug detoxification process, through his withdrawal symptoms, and help him avoid a drug or an alcohol relapse. Second, in rehab he could also learn more about his alcoholism symptoms and also about the various stages of alcoholism.
Third, Benjamin would learn to acknowledge the fact that there is absolutely nothing helpful about drug addiction and unhealthy and excessive drinking. In a similar way, he would also learn that engaging in one or both of these unhealthy situations is the road to poor work and school performance, a premature death, financial difficulties, deteriorating health, shattered relationships, and legal problems. Fourth, counseling for his depression and for his relationship problems might help him cope with these mental health problems more successfully and help create less of a need for him to engage in additive behavior. And finally, in counseling he could also learn more about the diverse symptoms of alcoholism that he has displayed.
Since Benjamin lacks the resolve to achieve much of anything in his life, it is clear that he definitely needs a little hope for a healthier existence. And the sad thing is that hope is all around Benjamin if he could only get to the point in life to get the counseling he requires for his acute depression and drug dependence and alcohol addiction and stay with his treatment program.
Benjamin is clearly too young to be beaten in life. He doesn't understand this right now but if he can learn how to abstain from drugs and alcohol through alcohol and drug therapy and get the treatment he requires for his severe depression, he can turn his life around and start living with direction, self-respect, and passion.
Stronger relationships, positive change, self esteem, and a meaningful life are clearly a reality for Benjamin. But only if he can get inspired to get the medical treatment he requires, follow through with his therapy protocol, live his life in a dependency-free and healthy manner, and learn how to acquire a more positive attitude about life.
