USERS OF ALCOHOL, TOBACCO, MEDICINES, ILLICIT DRUGS, INTERNET DEPENDENCE, PATHOLOGICAL GAMES AND THEIR FAMILIES
Beginning in April 2021.
The use of alcohol and other substances, as well as other impulsive behaviors are common in
a large part of the population. On the one hand, they can be related to social interaction, belonging to the
group, disinhibition, ease of communication, and on the other hand, to relaxation, "disconnecting from problems" and
resting. The problem begins when the individual evaluates his behavior as socially
appropriate and the people with whom he lives perceive it in another way, as an excessive behavior that presents prejudices.
Stop and ask yourself: do people with whom you have a closer and more intimate relationship complain
about your behavior regarding substances, the internet, games? If the answer is yes, maybe it is time to
look more calmly, with attention and love for yourself and for this situation, and you can reflect
on self-care. Skills Training for people with problems with substances and impulses and their families is a space designed to become aware of behaviors and their consequences. An opportunity to, if necessary, rethink lifestyle choices and changes
that promote a more solid and lasting well-being.
This training is a program of 16 meetings composed of the Skill Dialing Skills Training
in which participants will learn skills such as mindfulness,
interpersonal effectiveness, tolerance to malaise and emotional regulation and by the Relapse Prevention Group. Concomitantly, family members will participate in 8 meetings in the Family Training.
