If you are addicted to a substance with harmful side effects, it’s going to affect your job. Ignoring the problem may work for a little while, but it will prevent you from reaching your potential. Boston workers struggling with addiction have every reason to consider an employee assistance program.

Substance abuse disorders, alcoholism, and addiction have become a public health crisis in the United States. Although most people can become chemically addicted to a substance, there are certain risk factors (such as family history) that increase the likelihood of developing an addiction. Thousands of people in Massachusetts die from overdoses every year. At Greater Boston Addiction Centers, we offer the tools, strategies, and resources to help people get their lives back. As a progressive condition, addiction requires treatment; without treatment, the symptoms get worse over time. Relapsing happens when a person in recovery begins using alcohol or drugs after a sustained abstinence period, and recovery is part of the recovery process.
