6th International Conference on Addiction Therapy

  CBT is an effective treatment option since it can be used to treat a wide variety of addictions, including but not limited to food addiction, alcohol addiction, and prescription medication addiction. Treatment for addiction is not one-size-fits-all.  You can select the therapy that is ideal for you depending on the substance you are misusing, the degree of care you require, your unique mental health demands, or your financial resources. Here are a few of the most frequent addiction therapies that have helped individuals achieve long-term sobriety. Detoxification Detoxification with medical support helps you to safely clear your body of addicted chemicals. This is advantageous since substance withdrawal can occasionally result in unpleasant or even life-threatening bodily effects. Detox is usually used in conjunction with other therapies since it does not address the underlying behavioural reasons of addiction. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy Cognitive Behavioral Therap...

  Some individuals cut because they are desperate to get rid of negative emotions. People who cut may not be aware of other options for coping with emotional anguish or strain. Some individuals cut to show fury, despair, rejection, desperation, desire, or emptiness. It's complicated to understand why people deliberately slash themselves. Cutting is a coping mechanism used by some people to deal with the discomfort of strong emotions, high strain, or distressing interpersonal issues. They may be struggling with sentiments that are too painful to endure or events that they assume were permanent. There are alternative methods to deal with the problems, even major issues and excruciating emotional agony. Major life difficulties or overpowering emotions may necessitate the assistance of a mental health professional. Talking things over with parents, other adults, or colleagues can help put things in perspective in other difficult circumstances or intense emotions. Daily exercise can ...

Chemo brain is a terminology used by cancer survivors to explain issues with thinking and memory that can occur during and after treating cancer. Chemo brain is also known as chemo fog, cognitive impairment caused by cancer, or cognitive dysfunction. Chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairment, also referred as chemo brain, refers to concerns including forgetfulness, mental fogginess, and decision-making problems that can arise during and after cancer treatment. Exercising and using a graphic organizer are two main things you can do to improve yourself. Chemo brain is a term that describes problems with attention, memory, and thinking that occur as a result of cancer therapy. Chemo fog, chemotherapy-induced cognitive impairment, and cancer treatment-related cognitive impairment are some of the other names for this disease. Cognitive impairment (difficulty thinking clearly) is sometimes misunderstood as a consequence of chemotherapy. However, it can occur prior to, during, or followin...

  Depression (major depressive disorder) is a typical and significant health condition that has a negative impact on quality of life, think, and behave. It is also, thankfully, curable. Depression generates sadness and/or the loss of interest in previously appreciated activities. It can cause plenty of mental and physical difficulties, as well as a decrease in your capability to function at work and at home. Understand the connection between personality and depression has consequences for explaining aetiology and comorbidity, detecting at-risk people, and customising therapy. We go through seven primary theories that have been presented to explain the link between personality and depression, as well as crucial methodological issues such qualitative research, mood disorder heterogeneity, and personality evaluation. The extensive empirical literature on the role of personality traits in depression in children and adults is then reviewed selectively. Additionally, personality traits...

  Psychology has played a prominent part in both addiction research and treatment. It is an essential element of the interdisciplinary approach required by the 'biopsychosocial' conception. Cognitive theory-based, psychodynamic , and transtheoretical methods are the three primary categories of applied psychology in the field of addictions. This contribution contains brief summaries of the most common models. The Dynamic Model of Relapse from the learning theory field and the PRIME theory of motivation from the transtheoretical area are two important recent breakthroughs in addiction psychology. Both of these developments are deviations from conventional models' linear two-dimensional perspective in favour of multidimensional non-linear models that use theories like chaos theory and catastrophe theory in the modelling process. These techniques are similar to those used to describe and anticipate complicated phenomena like weather patterns in terms of explanations and pred...
