Drug addiction can lead to extremely harmful consequences, both to the addict themselves and those around them.
In the 21st century, problems with addiction don’t just include Class A drugs, like heroin or cocaine; there’s also the growing problem of prescriptive drugs, particularly opioid-based painkillers.
Drug addiction is a vicious cycle.
Drug addiction is usually a way of masking emotional pain, which is why it’s so difficult to treat. While some people use drugs for recreational use, those who use them as a coping mechanism usually end up being addicted.
Family and friends suffer greatly because of an addict’s behaviour, and it can feel impossible to help somebody who won’t admit they have a problem. Meanwhile, drug-users often don’t realise how much harm they’re causing those around them, which further pushes people away- it’s a vicious cycle indeed.
Harder drugs disrupt the way nerve cells work, either by imitating the brain’s natural messengers or by overstimulating the reward circuit of the brain. When seeking treatment, it’s important to deal with both the physical and emotional reliance on a drug.
