What Is Addiction?

Addiction means that you’re using drugs against your will, regardless of the harmful consequences. It’s a complex, chronic disease that keeps you mired in dangerous habits. Addiction puts your physical and mental health at risk.

Over time, abused substances change your brain chemistry, altering how you think and eventually leading to destructive patterns of behavior. In addition to the compulsive activity, there are warning signs associated with various kinds of addictions. An addiction tends to:

• Disrupt your life
• Impair your work habits and other daily activities
• Take a toll on your physical health
• Ruin relationships
• Disrupt your hobbies and fitness routines
• Interfere with your financial goals
