Addiction is defined by the NHS as the loss of control over doing, taking, or using something to the point where it could be harmful. Despite being a common issue – affecting one in three households – it remains a taboo topic, often wrapped in judgment and misunderstanding.
In this webinar, we’ll openly discuss addiction, not as a disease, but as a mental health condition that affects countless lives. We’ll explore how our understanding of addiction has evolved, challenge the myths surrounding it, and examine its impact on individuals and the workplace. Perhaps most importantly, we’ll look at how understanding addiction can lead to better support and resources for those who need it.
