Alcohol & Drug Addictions


Alcohol and drug addictions are said to affect (or have affected) up to 6 million Canadians. Addictions are serious and often require counseling or some other form of professional help.
An addiction can lead to serious health, relationship, and financial problems. It can result in death if you overdose.
If you have an addiction the first step is admitting you have a problem. There is absolutely nothing wrong with asking for help. In fact, it's a sign of weakness if you can't.
