Chaplain Dr. Darrell C. Hartley - Better CALL Darrell
Drug and Alcohol Counselor, ACPS ICCJP LAADC LCDC MAC SAP
Addiction or substance use disorder is a medical condition that affects the brain and behavior of a person, leading to an inability to control the use of legal or illegal drugs or medicines. Substances such as alcohol, marijuana, and nicotine are also considered drugs. The symptoms of addiction include intense urges for the drug that block out any other thoughts, needing more of the drug to get the same effect, taking larger amounts of the drug over a longer period of time than intended, and continuing to use the drug despite the harm it causes. Withdrawal symptoms can occur when a person stops using the drug. Treatment for addiction may include medication, behavioral therapy, and support groups.
