What is drug addiction or substance dependency?
Addiction is a disease that hijacks the reward center of the brain throwing the individual into chemical dependency. Addiction affects people on all levels, but I like to say it is a disease of mind, body, and spirit. One common theme with those who struggle with substance abuse is they continue to operate in the same old behavior even when they experience negative consequences. Genetics are another component that can affect the individual that struggles with substance misuse. You are more likely to become addicted if a parent or relative suffers with chemical dependency. If you lack control over substances, you may be suffering from substance use disorder. Luckily there is help and you no longer must suffer in silence. Iris Healing Center can assist with treating alcohol or drug addiction by providing evidenced based treatment that is proven to help individuals find recovery and a life worth living.
