Self Help

Kaleidoscope is developing a range of resources to provide ‘self help’ to individuals who may benefit from informal support, without needing to access services directly.

The first of our range of ‘self help’ booklets has been designed for those who are currently experiencing substance misuse problems themselves, but may not feel the problem is sufficient to warrant accessing services directly.

Self Help

To help you recognise what type of help you need for your problem, answer the following questions about your drug use truthfully. If your answers are divided between ‘never’ and ‘sometimes’, then it is possible that you may be able to initiate self-change. If, however, your answers are a mixture of ‘often’ and ‘nearly always’, then you might think about more structured treatment:


   
Never Sometimes Often Nearly Always
Do you find yourself thinking about when you will be able to take more drugs?  
Is taking more drugs more important than anything else you might do during the day?  
Do you plan your days around getting and taking drugs?  
Do you take drugs in a particular way in order to increase the effect it gives you?  
Do you use drugs morning, afternoon and evening?  
Do you feel you have to carry on taking drugs once you have started?  
Is getting the effect you want more important the the particular drug you use?  
Do you want to take more drugs when the effects wear off?  
Do you find it difficult to cope with life without drugs?  

If your answers are divided between ‘never’ and ‘sometimes’, then it is possible that you may be able to initiate self-change. Download our manual here >>

If your answers are a mixture of ‘often’ and ‘nearly always’ seeking support from a professional may be best for you. Fill in the form below and we will be in touch to let you know where your nearest treatment agency is.
