Chronic Pain and Chemical Dependency - Roots Through Recovery

Chronic Pain and Chemical Dependency
2
Introduction

• In the world of scientific journals and medical
  studies, there are dozens of reports about
  chronic pain recovery all finding the same thing
  that it often goes hand in hand with chemical
  dependency and substance abuse. 
• Of course, each of the researchers, scientists,
  and doctors have their own thoughts on the
  matter, but they all pretty much come back to the
  point that chronic pain starts a vicious cycle
  that often leads to relying on some type of
  painkillers.

Pain and Suffering

• Regardless of what type of chronic pain a person
  may be dealing with, constantly being
  uncomfortable leads to a loss of both
  productivity during the day and sleep at night. 
• Without the ability to function at a normal
  level, people are more likely to turn to
  controlled substances whether theyre opioids,
  alcohol, or even cannabis-based as a means to
  cut down on their discomfort and get back to a
  more regular lifestyle.

• Unfortunately, whats first used in moderation
  can quickly fall into a pattern of dependency and
  abuse.
• In addition to the physical discomfort, the
  mental and emotional strain of chronic pain can
  also play a major factor in developing a chemical
  dependency.
• Factoring in how quickly chemical dependency can
  get out of hand for even the healthiest
  individual, the descent for someone suffering
  from chronic pain can take over before it is even
  noticed.
• The good news is that even the worst case
  scenarios can be turned around with some help and
  a push in the right direction from a treatment
  program that specializes in treating chronic pain
  without medication.
