well let's see barriers to change
3 really important ones would be
1. That I understand that my drinking is actually a problem
2. That I need to reach out and utilize the proper services
3. Need to be honest with myself about where I am at currently and where I need to go
I see these as barriers especially when considering theories such as the health belief model or trans theorhetical model
i know the exact problem but I need to figure out how to create the self-efficacy to go even a few days without drinking (because I have still been drinking on a fairly regular basis)
ways to overcome them (however idealistic) would be to continue going to AA meetings, continue to do other forms of therapy, research more about impulse control and the concept of riding it out
also to create more social networks that actively discourage drinking or at least make me a bit more conscious of it
