What is Drug Addiction?

Drug addiction, or substance use disorder (SUD), is a chronic disease that compels individuals to seek and use drugs despite harmful consequences. It can involve the use of legal or illegal substances and often leads to significant health, social, and economic issues. Drug addiction alters the brain’s function and structure, making it extremely challenging for individuals to quit without professional help.

Common Drugs and Their Effects

Drug addiction can involve various substances, each with unique effects on the body and mind. Some commonly abused drugs include:
  • Cocaine: A powerful stimulant that increases energy and euphoria but can cause heart problems, anxiety, and paranoia. Learn more about cocaine.
  • Heroin: An opioid that provides intense euphoria but is highly addictive and can lead to overdose and death. Learn more about heroin.
  • Prescription Opioids: Medications like oxycodone and hydrocodone are prescribed for pain but often misused, leading to addiction and overdose. Learn more about prescription opioids.
  • Methamphetamine: A stimulant that increases alertness and energy but can cause severe dental problems, skin sores, and weight loss. Learn more about methamphetamine.
  • Cannabis: Often perceived as harmless, cannabis can impair memory, learning, and coordination and lead to addiction in some individuals. Learn more about cannabis.
  • Benzodiazepines: Medications prescribed for anxiety or insomnia that can lead to dependence and severe withdrawal symptoms. Learn more about benzodiazepines.

Signs of Drug Addiction

Recognizing the signs of drug addiction is crucial for seeking help. Common indicators include:
  • Increased Tolerance: Needing more of the drug to achieve the same effects.
  • Withdrawal Symptoms: Experiencing physical and mental symptoms when not using the drug.
  • Loss of Control: Inability to stop using the drug despite attempts.
  • Neglecting Responsibilities: Failing to fulfill obligations at work, school, or home.
  • Social and Relationship Problems: Conflicts with family and friends due to drug use.
  • Risky Behavior: Engaging in dangerous activities while under the influence.
  • Continued Use Despite Consequences: Persisting in drug use despite health and legal problems.
