Substance Use Disorders

At Bristol Health in Orem, UT, we understand that substance use disorders can significantly impact your life, affecting your mental and physical health, relationships, and overall well-being.

Our empathetic and skilled team offers support as you tackle the hurdles posed by these disorders. We focus on empowering and guiding you toward a better path.

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD)

Alcohol Use Disorder (AUD) is a chronic, relapsing brain disorder characterized by an impaired ability to stop or control alcohol use despite adverse social, occupational, or health consequences. It's not about the quantity of alcohol you consume but rather the impact it has on your life.

If you find yourself drinking more than intended, or alcohol is causing problems in your personal or professional life, you may have AUD. It's important to remember that help is available, and recovery is possible.

Treatment for AUD may include a combination of behavioral therapies, support groups, and medication-assisted treatment. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Motivational Enhancement Therapy, and 12-step programs like Alcoholics Anonymous can be beneficial in addressing AUD.

Opioid Use Disorder (OUD)

Opioid Use Disorder (OUD) involves a pattern of opioid use leading to significant impairment or distress. It's when you can't stop using opioids, such as prescription pain relievers, heroin, or synthetic opioids like fentanyl, even when these substances are causing problems in your life.

Symptoms can include strong desires for opioids, inability to control or reduce use, or continued use despite interference with major obligations or social functioning. Remember, professional treatment can help manage this disorder.

Treatment for OUD often involves medication-assisted treatment combined with behavioral therapies and support groups. This comprehensive approach helps to manage withdrawal symptoms, reduce cravings, and address the psychological aspects of addiction.

Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD)

Cannabis Use Disorder (CUD) is a mental health condition characterized by a problematic pattern of cannabis use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress.

If you're using cannabis in larger amounts or over a longer period than you intended, and you've expressed a persistent desire to cut down or control cannabis use, you may have CUD. Seek professional help to deal with the symptoms and regain control over your life.

Treatment for CUD typically involves behavioral therapies, such as CBT, Contingency Management, or Motivational Enhancement Therapy. These therapies focus on identifying triggers, developing coping strategies, and fostering motivation to change.

Cocaine Use Disorder

Cocaine Use Disorder is a condition characterized by the harmful, compulsive use of cocaine, a powerful stimulant drug. If you're spending a lot of time obtaining, using, or recovering from the effects of cocaine and it's causing problems in your life, you might have a Cocaine Use Disorder. Know that there are treatment options available to help you recover.

Treatment for Cocaine Use Disorder primarily involves behavioral therapies, such as CBT, Contingency Management, and the Matrix Model. These approaches help individuals recognize and change unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors related to cocaine use.

Amphetamine Use Disorder

Amphetamine Use Disorder involves a pattern of amphetamine-type substance use causing distress or impairment. If you're experiencing intense cravings for amphetamines, or if your use of these substances is interfering with your ability to handle responsibilities at work, school, or home, you may have Amphetamine Use Disorder. Don't lose hope; effective treatment is available.

Amphetamine Use Disorder treatment often includes behavioral therapies, such as CBT, the Matrix Model, and Contingency Management. These therapies help individuals develop coping strategies, address triggers, and build a supportive recovery network.

Hallucinogen Use Disorder

Hallucinogen Use Disorder is characterized by a pattern of hallucinogen use causing significant impairment or distress. If you're using hallucinogens, such as LSD or Psilocybin, in larger amounts or over a longer period than you intended, or if you've tried to cut back or stop but couldn't, you may have Hallucinogen Use Disorder. Professional help can guide you toward recovery.

Treatment for Hallucinogen Use Disorder typically involves psychotherapy, such as CBT or Motivational Enhancement Therapy, to address the underlying psychological concerns related to hallucinogen use. Support groups and family therapy may also be beneficial.

Inhalant Use Disorder

Inhalant Use Disorder is marked by a pattern of inhalant use leading to significant impairment or distress. If you're using inhalants, like glue or aerosol sprays, more than you intended to, or if your use of these substances is causing problems in your life, you may have an Inhalant Use Disorder. Remember, it's never too late to seek help and start on the path to recovery.

Inhalant Use Disorder treatment often includes a combination of behavioral therapies, such as CBT or Motivational Enhancement Therapy, and support groups. These approaches help individuals recognize triggers, develop coping strategies, and build a supportive recovery network.

Sedative, Hypnotic, or Anxiolytic Use Disorder

This disorder involves recurrent use of sedatives, hypnotics, or anxiolytics, causing clinically significant impairment. If you're using these drugs in a way that's causing health concerns, or if your use is interfering with your work or personal relationships, you may have a Sedative, Hypnotic, or Anxiolytic Use Disorder. There are effective treatments available that can help you regain control.

Treatment for this disorder typically involves a gradual tapering of the medication under medical supervision, combined with behavioral therapies, such as CBT or Motivational Enhancement Therapy. These therapies help individuals address the psychological aspects of addiction and develop healthier coping strategies.

Tobacco Use Disorder

Tobacco Use Disorder, also known as Nicotine Dependence, is characterized by a problematic pattern of tobacco use leading to clinically significant impairment or distress. If you're using tobacco more than you want to, or if you've tried to quit but couldn't, or if tobacco use is causing problems in your life, you may be dealing with a Tobacco Use Disorder. There's no better time than now to seek help and begin your journey toward a tobacco-free life.
