WHAT IS PROCESS ADDICTION?

Process addictions are defined by compulsive behaviours that allow individuals to escape from stress or discomfort, leading to a cycle of addiction that can often start to take over life. These addictions are driven by the urge to repeatedly engage in a behaviour despite experiencing negative outcomes. The patterns observed in these types of addictions are similar to those seen in substance addictions although the consequences and treatment will vary depending on the kind of addiction that the individual faces. Recognised globally as a mental health condition, the need to provide effective behavioural addiction treatment and support for these conditions is paramount.

PROCESS ADDICTION CAUSES

The causes of these mental health disorders depend on various factors. Addictive behaviours can stem from boredom, loneliness, stress relief or even just recreational and fun activities. For many people, these actions don’t generally become problems; however, they can become issues for those with addictive personalities who are unable to control their actions. Process addictions come in all shapes and sizes; therefore, the causes manifest from multiple reasons – understanding these conditions individually is vital to determining the best way to treat the problem.

TYPES OF BEHAVIOURAL ADDICTIONS

While there is an exhaustive list of these issues, the most common types are mentioned here on this page. Here at PROMIS, we treat a wide range of addictions and mental health issues; however, here are some of the most typical cases we encounter at our process addiction and substance abuse rehab.

SHOPPING ADDICTION

Shopping addiction is the uncontrollable urge to purchase. This can manifest in the action of buying physical items in shops or purchasing things online. This particular addiction generally has financial implications and negative psychological effects on the individual.
