The term drug addiction refers to the habitual use of a substance or behavior that can lead to serious health problems like dependency and abuse. Definition. An addiction is an uncontrollable, persistent urge to engage in an activity or habit that results in physical, psychological, or social discomfort or detriment. Addiction may be caused by an environmental or physiological cause or a combination of both. The most common substances abused by people who are addicted are alcohol, caffeine, cocaine, methamphetamines, heroin, and marijuana.

Treatment is available for an addict at various levels of severity. The most common and popular form of treatment used by addicts is usually inpatient rehab. Inpatient treatment helps a patient with his/her withdrawal symptoms and teaches them how to deal with them. This is also known as inpatient rehabilitation. During the rehabilitation process, they learn to live without the drug, but at the same time, they also learn to control their urges and replace them with healthy and productive ones. The duration of treatment will vary based on the seriousness of the addiction, its severity, and whether it has been treated successfully in the past.

Some addicts can be treated at home by self-help and outpatient treatment. Self-help treatment involves learning new ways of controlling the physical effects of a substance, or developing a new coping mechanism to help cope with the physical, emotional, and/or mental effects of an addiction. Outpatient treatment is more intense and focused, where the patient undergoes inpatient rehabilitation and is monitored by qualified professionals. The treatment will also involve the use of medications that will help the addict reduce their cravings and avoid relapses. Depending on the extent of the addiction, the treatment may include inpatient or outpatient. Drug rehabilitation centers offer the best treatment for those addicted to drugs. The main goal of such centers is to ensure that their patients return to their previous lifestyle and function normally and lead fulfilling lives.
