Process Addictions
Process addictions, unlike substance addictions, revolve around compulsive behaviors rather than ingested substances. These addictive behaviors can include gambling, shopping, gaming, or even excessive internet use. What distinguishes process addictions is the pursuit of a psychological reward rather than a physiological one, leading individuals to repeat the behavior despite negative consequences. These addictions often stem from underlying emotional or psychological issues and can severely impact daily life, relationships, and mental health. Treatment typically involves therapy to address underlying causes, behavioral interventions to modify the addictive behavior, and support groups to encourage long-term recovery and healthier coping mechanisms. Recognizing the signs of a process addiction early is crucial for intervention and successful management.
