Drug Addiction

Shanti Home02 Dec, 2023Health

Drug De-addiction (also known as substance use disorder) can be defined as a progressive disease that causes people to lose control of the use of some substance despite the worsening consequences of that use. Substance use disorder can be life-threatening. Addictions are not problems of willpower or morality. Addiction is a powerful and complex disease. People who have an addiction to drugs cannot simply quit, even if they want to. The drugs change the brain in a way that makes quitting physically and mentally difficult. Treating addiction often requires lifelong care and therapy.
