Take Control. Begin Addiction Recovery Now.
There are several factors to consider and multiple options available regarding drug addiction treatment. Every person dealing with drug addiction has a unique situation, and their treatment specialists will have to devise treatment goals most appropriate for their situation.
The type of addiction, the length and severity of the addiction, as well as its effects on the individual and those around them, are some factors specialists will consider when drawing up an addiction treatment plan. Available treatment options include inpatient and outpatient treatment, but it’s necessary first to determine the level of care an addict requires. Some patients may want to stop using their substance of choice completely, while others decide to reduce or manage their drug consumption.
Some treatment strategies aim to find and resolve underlying emotional issues that may be fueling addiction with a view to finding healthier coping strategies that do not involve drugs. Drug addiction is often the result of genetic, psychological, and environmental or social reasons, so an addiction treatment plan must be holistic to offer the individual the best shot at recovery.

There is no single reason why people become addicted to drugs. But an individual’s susceptibility to addiction will typically arise from one or more of the following factors:
Research suggests that addiction is heritable and that genetic factors play a role in addiction development. People with family members who struggle with addiction are more likely to develop an addiction later in life.
A person’s environmental conditions can also play a role in their drug addiction. Young people who grow up in unstable homes or were exposed to drugs early have a higher risk of becoming drug addicts. Peer pressure and a community’s seeming acceptance of drug abuse can also increase a person’s likelihood of drug addiction.
Individuals with past traumatic experiences may struggle with emotional difficulties that could push them to drugs. Past physical, emotional, or sexual abuse may also see individuals turn to drugs as a coping mechanism. Individuals with mental health conditions may also try to manage their symptoms by self-medicating with drugs, putting them at risk of drug addiction.

The best form of treatment for addiction is one that is tailored to the specific needs of the individual. This treatment will account for specific factors like the type of drug used, length of addiction, severity of the addiction, available support system, and their motivation to change.
The first step in the treatment process for addiction is a thorough evaluation of the individual to understand their addiction and surrounding circumstances. A detox process will typically follow this evaluation to get all traces of the substance out of the addict’s system.
The first rule of recovery from addiction is to admit that you have a problem and are powerless to overcome it without help.
How long it takes to get rid of an addiction varies from person to person. How long a person has been using, and the severity of their addiction, affects their ability to break an addiction. However, research shows that recovering addicts need at least 90 days to recover from drug addiction and master the new habits they’ve learned during the recovery process.
Addiction affects the brain on several levels. Addictive substances stimulate the brain’s reward system, triggering euphoric feelings that motivate the individual to continue using the substance. These effects can cause lasting behavioral changes and permanent brain damage.
Addiction is a complex condition resulting from the action of drugs on several areas of the brain, including the basal ganglia, prefrontal cortex, and extended amygdala.
Addiction is a disease of the brain because it leads to changes in brain structure and function. However, addiction can also be a disability if it substantially impairs major life activities.
Alcohol use disorder is the most common type of substance use disorder. Its legal status and social acceptance make alcohol the most abused substance in Canada.
Common pharmacological treatments for addiction are medications administered to reverse the effects of substances or reduce cravings. These drugs include naltrexone, buprenorphine, and methadone.
Some ways to overcome addiction include rehab, therapy, medications, interventions, and support groups.
