Promis recovery centre brings you a short talk by Dr robert le fever about recovery from alcohol, drug abuse, eating disorders and other addictive behaviours, for further details contact promisclinics.com
The man in this (might be you, I dont know) said that it is idiotic to provide a person with clean cutting paraphinalia. If the person has no other way of feeling alive and that is the one way of getting that feeling isnt it kind of cruel to take that one thing that they have away from them? Since their already doing it wouldnt we want them to be, I guess the word isnt safe in this situation but at least safer by providing that person clean things with which to do it?
Re cluster 2. Quitting smoking for me was an obsession for over 10 years. The mental self-talk when I'd not smoke was like wrestling an alligator. i did quit in the end. But took up chewing topbacco. Then quit that then Obsessively drank caffeing normally minimum 15 cans of diet coke PLUS 5 coffees a DAY. I got off that and my sex drive went crazy. I stayed with the sex ;)
Oops cluster No.2 sounds a lot like me. Thankfully I never got to much into alcohol (though at one point was binge drinking heavily) - but MASSIVE nicotine + caffeine intake + pretty big risk taking and sex. I noticed myself that when I quit one I'd switch to another of those (incl brief xanax episoded
I wasnt to sure what you were trying to put across in this video apart from anything addictive is self-harming...i would also like to say that nat everyone who self-harms publises it...i dont go round saying it's my thing or tell people but yes could you send me a message telling me what you were trying to put across...Thank You xxx

Thanks for posting these clips from your centre. I am surprised that more people haven't seen them.
