In another segment with J. Wesley Boyd, M.D., Ph.D., assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and co-author of “Almost Addicted,” Boyd discusses when it is necessary to reach out for professional help or attend AA or NA meetings. He says people who are struggling to stop on their own or cut back on their drug use would greatly benefit by reaching out to a professional or a clergy member.
