Psychiatry, Mental Disorders & Psychosomatic Medicine

Drug abuse and Addiction:

Drug abuse is a serious public health problem that affects almost every neighborhood and family. Utilizing drugs improperly can help you feel better, cope with stress, or escape from reality. However, you can usually completely stop using or change your harmful habits. Addiction to drugs involves more than just heroin, cocaine, or other illegal substances. Addiction can be brought on by legal drugs, alcohol, nicotine, opiate medications, and other substances as well. Gambling, sex, and other impulse control issues, as well as issues with both legal and illegal substances, may be included. Addiction psychiatrists are authorities on substance abuse. The expanding body of scientific information, such as the effects of substance dependence on one's health and available treatments, has enabled advancements in the field of addiction psychiatry.
