This guide was written for people who are having problems related to alcohol or other drug use, their families, and anyone else wanting to gain a basic understanding of addiction, its treatment and management. The guide does not replace treatment from a physician or addiction treatment professional, but it could be used as a basis for questions and discussion.
This workbook was developed by the Centre for Addiction and Mental
Health’s Nicotine Dependence Service. In this workbook, we offer guidance, tips, tools, and resources to help reduce or quit
drinking.
This booklet has been written to help and support people who attend CDAT. We have tried to cover the main areas that people may need advice/help with. However you will have a named keyworker and you may speak to them whenever you need to. The booklet contains information and general advice as well as exercises intended to get you thinking. Some parts of the booklet are designed to be taken away and completed on your own, others parts, you may wish to do together with your keyworker. It has been divided into separate sections and designed so that you can dip in and out of the parts depending on what it relevant to you at the time. www.get.gg
