COMPULSIVE BEHAVIOR
Hope for Compulsive Behavior
Activities in our lives provide relief for stress and everyday challenges. When the use of those activities becomes distorted, in such a way that a particular behavior is needed in order for things to be “normal”, compulsive behaviors may arise.
Compulsive Behavior can come in many forms, including eating disorders, alcohol and drug abuse, cigarette smoking, sex, exercising, television, shoplifting, cutting, worrying, and many others. A common thread for those engaging in compulsive behavior is that stopping the activity leads to withdrawal, which can include physical or emotional pain, as well as anxiety.
Our Approach to Help and Healing
Covenant Counseling provides individuals a safe environment to explore the triggers of their compulsive behavior, as well as the opportunity to develop new ways to reduce the stress and the need for escape.
