🎥 Addressing Po*******hy Addiction in the Context of the UK’s New Online Safety Rules

UKAT CEO, Daniel Gerrard, recently spoke with GB News about the increasing prevalence of po*******hy addiction, particularly among younger individuals. Easy access to explicit material online has led to a rise in cases requiring professional treatment and structured recovery support.

This discussion coincides with a significant policy development: from 25 July 2025, the UK Online Safety rules have taken effect, introducing:
Mandatory age verification for adult websites to prevent under‑18 access
Enhanced safeguards against harmful online content for children
Enforcement powers for Ofcom, including fines and service restrictions for non‑compliance

These measures are a crucial step towards reducing early exposure and mitigating long-term harm. However, as Daniel highlights, legislation alone cannot address the challenges already faced by those experiencing compulsive behaviours.

Prevention and policy must be complemented by accessible, evidence‑based treatment and recovery services. UKAT remains committed to providing support for individuals and families impacted by behavioural addictions.

📽 Watch Daniel’s interview below for further insight.

🌿 Step 7: Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings 🌿

This step isn’t just about asking for help — it’s about being ready to let go of the behaviours, beliefs, and patterns that kept us stuck.

In recovery, our “shortcomings” often began as survival tools. However, over time, they became barriers: defensiveness, manipulation, control, fear, and pride.

Step 7 teaches us that true strength begins with humility. By becoming willing to change — and asking something greater than ourselves for help — we start to create space for growth, healing, and peace.

You don’t need to be religious to work this step. You just need to be willing. 💛

A California doctor has pled guilty to federal charges after illegally prescribing controlled substances to actor Matthew Perry, including ketamine, which was ruled a contributing factor in his tragic death in October 2023.

According to U.S. prosecutors, the physician prescribed ketamine to Perry without a legitimate medical purpose and outside the bounds of professional practice. This included issuing prescriptions without in-person consultations, a direct violation of the law. Perry’s autopsy revealed high levels of ketamine in his system, leading to his death by "acute ketamine effects," alongside contributing factors such as buprenorphine (used to treat opioid use disorder).

This case sheds light on the dangers of improper prescribing practices, especially when dealing with vulnerable individuals in recovery. Matthew Perry had long been open about his battles with addiction, and this tragic outcome underscores the urgent need for tighter controls, medical accountability, and safe, ethical addiction treatment.

At UKAT, we advocate for responsible care and informed recovery. If you or someone you know is navigating addiction, especially involving prescription drugs, please reach out for help.

Recovery is deeply personal. For some, it’s about chasing the life they dream of. For others, it’s about walking away from the pain they’ve survived.

Both are valid. Both are powerful. And both take daily work. 💪

📉 You don’t have to hit rock bottom to get help.

Too many people delay treatment because they think they haven’t “suffered enough” to deserve it.

But the truth is, addiction doesn’t have to take everything from you before you choose recovery.

At UKAT, we support people at every stage of addiction — whether you're struggling quietly or in deep crisis. The earlier you get help, the more options you have, and the easier it can be to rebuild.

It’s easy to tell yourself you’re just blowing off steam, just socialising, just taking the edge off. But when alcohol starts to affect your life — even quietly — it might be time to take a closer look.

Drinking more than you intended, struggling to stop, hiding how much you’re really drinking… these are all warning signs. So is using alcohol to escape emotions, to cope with stress, or to feel “normal.”

Maybe you’ve noticed changes in your sleep, mood, memory, or relationships. Maybe you feel anxious, guilty, or ashamed after drinking. If alcohol feels less like a choice and more like a need — you’re not alone.

This Alcohol Awareness Week, know this:
You don’t have to wait for things to get worse to ask for help.
You don’t have to hit rock bottom to deserve support.

Recovery is possible — and help is available. 💬

Yesterday at Oasis Runcorn, we opened our doors for a truly special event.

We were proud to welcome guests from Cheshire West & Chester Council, , , , and more to experience, firsthand, what residential rehabilitation at UKAT really looks like.

The day offered a unique opportunity for our valued statutory partners to see an actively operational rehab centre in action—to understand what clients experience from admission to aftercare, and how they’re supported every step of the way.

Sessions throughout the day covered:

🔹 An overview of UKAT’s Statutory Services and referral process
🔹 The importance of raising awareness around addiction-related harms
🔹 How we tailor treatment modalities to meet each client’s needs

To end the day, we heard from two powerful voices:

💬 Donna, currently three months into her treatment at Oasis Runcorn
💬 David, a former statutory-referred client who has maintained sobriety for over six years

Their stories were a powerful reminder of why this work matters. Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to such an impactful day.

Together, we continue to build bridges to recovery.

Alcohol addiction doesn’t always mean rock bottom.
It can hide behind promotions, packed schedules, and a perfect record.

This is functioning alcoholism—a form of addiction where individuals continue to meet daily responsibilities while secretly struggling.

📉 Missed signs can include:
– Chronic exhaustion or “wired” energy
– Increased isolation or irritability
– Skipping holidays or overworking
– Reliance on alcohol to relax or cope silently

🧠 Addiction is not a weakness.
It’s a health condition—and it thrives in silence and stigma.

This , let’s:
✅ Recognise the invisible signs
✅ Have real conversations
✅ Create stigma-free routes to support

Because the most composed colleague in the room might be the one struggling the most.

Alcohol & the Workplace: A Silent Struggle

Alcohol misuse doesn’t always look like a crisis. Often, it appears as though a high performer is struggling quietly under pressure.

At UKAT, we've seen a 101% rise in alcohol treatment admissions since 2019 — mostly among working-age adults trying to juggle careers, families, and stress.

Early-career professionals (21–30 years old) are also at risk, with a 121% increase in admissions in just four years.

Employers play a vital role. With the right policies, training, and private referral options, workplaces can help break the stigma and support recovery before crisis hits.

Support is available. Let’s make it easier to ask for help.
