Chemical Dependency Counselor Is Necessary

By Rosella Campbell


Quite a few people like to drink alcohol and take certain drugs on a daily basis. These individuals do not care that they may need a chemical dependency counselor one day. Sometimes the therapy workers can help their situation and at other times they cannot.

A very independent male had lived in Manhattan for most of his adult life and he was also a hard worker. All of his customers loved his work since he was able to make or save them money in a tough market. After working on his regular job for forty hours a week he would still work another part time gig. He loved music and people so much that he decided to take a position as a music player on the weekends. Even though he made his fair share of money as a competent Financial Advisor he still wanted more.

He was well loved by his co workers and they would always miss him whenever he was not at work. This kind gentleman seemed to have the perfect life since everyone cared for him so much. Unfortunately things took a turn for the worse when he became involved in drugs. He had become very stressed since he was working six or seven days a week. One of the customers at the club decided to give him several pills when he told them about his condition.

In the beginning it was quite fun to take the pills and experience the magical effect that they had. Unfortunately things turned ugly when his personality changed completely. He had now become rude to his loyal customers on his daily job and would sometimes call in sick for no reason at all. All of his co workers knew that something had to be seriously wrong with this man.

One of his co workers pulled him to the side and questioned him. He immediately told his worker about the pills that were given to him at the club. They gave him good advice and suggested that he seek help from a substance worker. He agreed to follow their information and made an appointment to talk with this very understanding professional.

The first session went quite slow and this once vibrant male seemed like a very frightened child. The therapist took the time to introduce himself and make small conversation with his patient. This session lasted for a couple of hours and the therapist was able to make some progress. After all was said and done his patient was in a more relaxed state and seemed to be doing better.

The therapist told him that it may take quite a few sessions before his life would go back to normal. Fortunately this hard working man agreed with his new doctor. He knew that he would have to do certain things in order to get better. During the next few weeks he was introduced to a yoga instructor who helped him to relax more.

The man was advised to quit his job at the night club since this place was destroying his life. He took this advice and turned in his notice to the manager. After this happened he put in extra hours at his regular job to supplement his income.
