Drugs/Substance Addiction

Drug or substance use is a complex issue characterized by intense and at times, uncontrollable cravings and controlling thoughts. The cravings, along with compulsive drug and alcohol seeking and use that persist despite devastating consequences. Substance abuse disrupts so many aspects of an individual’s life that the treatment is not simple.

Symptoms you may have:

  • Using the substance in larger amounts, or for longer, than was intended.
  • Planning to smoke, relax, or get high for a couple hours, but you spend more time getting high than you originally intended.
  • Make attempts to reduce, cut down, or stop drug use, but not being able to do so.
  • Spending time searching, obtaining, and getting high.
  • Recovering times are longer from using the substance.
  • Investing substantial time and money obtaining your drugs.
  • Struggle with the cravings or urges to use the substance.
  • Missing work, not completing tasks on time, increased forgetfulness, tardiness, frequent hangovers.
  • Relationship and social problems.
  • Increased isolation and loneliness.
  • Chasing the high using more drugs.
  • Experiencing dope sickness or withdrawal.
  • WD Recovery and Wellness Center understands how the path to drug addiction begins with the thoughts to take drugs so you can quiet the brain “feel better”. The substances numb your pain or bad feelings.
