Find the Word You Need Today - Addiction
An urge can feel immediate. Sometimes attention narrows around a substance or behaviour until there seems to be very little space between the feeling and the action.
This word search is designed to create a small pause without shame or judgement.
Hidden words include PAUSE, SUPPORT, CONNECTION, HONESTY, CHOICE, COPE, SAFE, BREATHE, TOMORROW, RECOVERY, COMPASSION, REACH, HOPE, GROUND, REST, TALK, NOTICE, CHANGE, COURAGE and STAY.
Inside the downloadable resource:
• a full playable Addiction word search
• a “The Word I Need Right Now” reflection
• prompts exploring what may be underneath an urge
• a small pause-before-action exercise
• a personal message from Maggie
• a moment-by-moment check-in
• important guidance about seeking medical support when withdrawal could be unsafe
This resource does not reduce addiction to willpower or bad choices. It encourages curiosity, connection, support and one manageable decision at a time.
No judgement. No shame.
