People often view those who engage in substance abuse as lacking willpower or self-control. On the surface, lacking impulse control would seem to fit in with this description. However, impulse control is a result of brain chemistry. People who have certain types of brain chemistry are more susceptible to abusing substances or using them in the first place.
When people think about addiction, they usually think about substance abuse. However, there are many types of addiction. It’s important to understand that addiction is a brain disease and not a personal lack of willpower or weakness. Compulsive behavior is strengthened by substance abuse as various substances rewire the brain. But, compulsive behavior doesn’t always require drugs or alcohol.
Anger is a common emotion in addiction recovery. At some point, you have to learn to deal with it and process it in a constructive way. Your anger might be directed at yourself, or at certain people, or society in general, or even at law enforcement and the legal system. The fact remains that anger is very common among those recovering from addiction. Why is it important to deal with anger in addiction recovery? The main reason is that anger is often strongly attached to the risk of relapse. If you don’t properly process your anger, you might end up turning to drugs or alcohol again to cope with it.
PTSD symptoms in men can be more difficult to recognize and diagnose. Many men are wired or conditioned not to show weakness, so they may internalize and hide these symptoms. They may also attempt to self-medicate through drugs or alcohol.
