Substance use, coping strategies

• 

  Alcohol use

  Some of us turn to alcohol to manage stress, shift work, or life’s demands, but how can we tell when drinking starts to affect our health?

• 

  Problem gambling

  Many of us gamble as an escape or for a thrill. But it can be hard to tell when our gambling becomes a problem for ourselves and others.

• 

  Substance use and dependence

  Substance use and dependence can affect anyone. No one starts using substances with the intention of becoming dependent.

• 

  Self-harm

  The demands of our professions put us at greater risk of self-harm than our healthcare colleagues. We can help you to reach a safer space.
