Knowledge is power, so here's some basic information on cravings to help you understand what's happening in your body and your mind when an urge to drink, use, smoke or grab a brownie hits.
Cravings can feel like an uphill battle when you're trying to quit an addictive substance. In this episode of 'Workit Health Blog Post Recordings', host Kali breaks down 6 essential insights about drug and alcohol cravings, offering practical advice to help you navigate these challenging moments. Whether it's sugar, caffeine, or opioids, understanding that cravings are a normal part of recovery can be a game-changer.
They don't signify weakness or inevitable failure, but rather a hurdle that can be overcome with the right tools. Kali dives into the importance of recognizing both internal and external triggers. Knowing what sets off your cravings is the first step in managing them, whether through therapy, medication, or simple tools like craving logs.
Cravings vary in intensity and duration for everyone, influenced by factors such as how long it's been since your last use and where you are in your recovery journey. But here's the good news: cravings are temporary and will pass. Workit Health’s digital clinic provides a range of resources including medication for opioid addiction, online courses, recovery coaching, and therapy sessions.
