1. The Problems with Attitudes about Change
When it comes to alcohol and drug abuse, people really don’t like change. That doesn’t mean
that people don’t like initiatives which help people with abuse problems. It means that addicts
really don’t like change if they can help it, and if forced upon them, they may live their entire
lives looking for stability but in reality living lives filled with nothing but unreliable change.
Change is scary
Change is unnerving.
For addicts, change can seem almost life threatening, at times.
For some, change is stressful when it occurs to people in their lives, such as romantic partners or
the death or leaving of a loved one. For some people, change is most stressful when it comes in the
form of a job loss or a job change. For some, it is denial about something they have done. And for
others, change is so terrifying that they will dig in their heels against any form of change, no matter
what it is, even if their own survival is dependent upon a small amount of adaptation.
In the professional environment, these attitudes are death to any company. In order to survive, all
businesses must be at least somewhat adaptable. If you have a manager or a senior level executive
who has this attitude about change, it can be a huge problem for you and your company’s revenue.
It is important to identify any possible substance abuse as early as possible.
