Diet Pills are Also Addictive
Have you noticed nowadays diet pills are available everywhere? It is available in your local supermarket, GNC, smoothie store, and also all over the internet. They promise for you to lose weight almost instantly doing nothing at all. If this promise holds true, are these pills an addiction?
We talked with a couple of our success stories and found their answers to whether or not these pills became an addiction and how it has affected their lives.
We found that while these diet pills have completely changed peoples lives there is no addictive quality about them.
The only one that showed a trace of dependency was ephedra based pills. These pills were BANNED to be sold in the US by the FDA. Since then, no ephedra based pills have been sold anywhere in the USA. This ban was needed and was the only problem with the diet pill industry.
The only diet pills that are allowed to be sold in the USA without a prescription is herbal based pills. This means that the ingredients are all natural and non-chemical.
The only thing that users of diet pills have to notice out for is that as 2,3,4 months passes you should be more dependant on your diet and exercise to lose weight rather then taking a pill. You should take diet pills as a temporary boost to help you get your body to maintain. After medication, it is your job to maintain your physical type. Diet pills is are not like a daily vitamin tablet. You have to consult your doctor often and look around for the harmless ST diet pill.

Addiction is a disease that no one should have to deal with alone. It is imperative that citizens of a city or county have access to top quality addiction treatment services. People from all walks of life can be susceptible to developing a substance use disorder in response to trauma they have endured, or lifestyle circumstances begetting maladaptive coping mechanisms.When a person is in the grips of addiction, they can become isolated and unable to see their condition for what it is—an illness that can be managed.Whether you are in Nashville or in the greater Nashville area such as Brentwood, Franklin, Hendersonville, etc, at Southeast Addiction, our outpatient addiction treatment programs offer something for individuals of all levels of commitment.
At Skywood, we are deeply invested in helping you regain your health. Our programming approach to recovery is designed with that in mind, from individual and group therapy to adventure therapy, art therapy and yoga. Each of these activities builds on the others to get to the root causes of addiction, introduce healthy new habits, address any co-occurring mental health issues and provide the mental and physical space you need in order to heal. We also provide access to regular 12-Step meetings and peer support groups. What we do at Skywood is different for several reasons. First, we treat addiction and mental health at the same time in a highly integrated way, looking to restore a person’s physical, emotional, mental and spiritual well-being.

Lastly, we emphasize life skills that help each person build a foundation for sustainable, long-term recovery.

Due to this integration, each client begins Everlasting Recovery by assessing their performance in various aspects of their lives via the bio, psycho, and social model. This initial assessment allows our therapists to craft a personal recovery program, which allows the greatest opportunity for our clients to suppress addiction and adopt recovery as a permanent identity. When attending Lake Ariel Recovery Center, our clients will establish life skills, implement daily routines for lifestyle recovery, and ignite a purpose for achieving better their lives. Through accomplishing these tasks, our clients will achieve sustainable recovery.
