Patients were encouraged to recognise situations and emotions that may contribute to cravings or unhealthy behavioural patterns and to identify healthier ways of managing difficult emotions.
The session included interactive discussions and practical psychological techniques to promote self-awareness, emotional regulation, coping skills and recovery-oriented thinking. The importance of seeking appropriate professional support and maintaining a supportive recovery environment was also emphasised
