- Slide 10 Environmental stimuli (external triggers) or emotional conditions (internal triggers) will often cause the recovering addict to think of using drugs and/or alcohol. For example, the patient runs into his old source of drugs at the market. Or, the patient gets into a fight with her husband, and immediately thinks of having a drink. Historically, she has always had a drink after fighting with her spouse. A single thought of drinking or using will typically pass through one’s mind in 30 to 90 seconds, allowing one to continue thinking about AODs. AOD use is often the beginning of the relapse process. This inflames the neurochemistry of the addiction and moves the brain into the craving stage. At this craving stage, it is very difficult, if not impossible, to stop the slide into drug or alcohol use. To the actively using addict/alcoholic or the substance abuser in early recover, the Trigger - Thought - Craving - Use sequence feels as if it happens simultaneously. You feel triggered, and you immediately want to use. Knowing this process can be very helpful to the recovering addict/alcoholic. The successful key in dealing with the process is to avoid it getting started. It is extremely important to stop the thought when it first begins and to prevent it from building into an overpowering craving. It is vitally important to do this as soon as you recognize the thoughts occurring. This can be accomplished by using a number of Thought Stopping techniques.
