Joanne L. Barian's Groups
Recovery, Substance Abuse, & Addiction
continue to use despite negative consequences. People use drugs or alcohol to escape, relax, or to reward themselves. But over time, drugs and alcohol make you believe that you can't cope without them, or that you can't enjoy life without using. What is the Medical Definition of Addiction? An addiction must meet at least 1. Tolerance. Do you use more alcohol or drugs over time? 2. Withdrawal. Have you experienced physical or emotional withdrawal when you have stopped using? Have you continued to use even though there have been negative consequences to your mood, self-esteem, health, job, or family?
