Excessive Behaviour
Excessive Behaviour refers to the propensity of those recovering from severe alcohol and other drug problems to experience problems with other excessive behaviour, particularly during their early recovery years.
Such behaviours include excessive relationships with secondary drugs, work, money, sex, food, risk (e.g., gambling), and religion.
Working through this propensity for excessive behaviour (even excessive work on recovery) is a normal part of the recovery process, and underscores the importance of such values as harmony and balance in the transition from the early to the middle stages of recovery.
