What Is Addiction?

Addiction is not just a matter of someone enjoying a glass of wine with dinner, smoking legal marijuana every now and then to relax, or occasionally enjoying gambling at a casino with friends. Addiction is a physical and psychological dependence that leads to compulsive abuse, regardless of the consequences. Alcoholism is a chronic, progressive disease that can lead to disabling physical and psychiatric problems. If left untreated, it can be fatal. Substance abuse can cause untold physical, psychological, and emotional damage to the individual and their loved ones. Gambling addiction can lead to impulsive behavior, financial loss, impaired relationships, and psychological damage.

The root causes of addiction are difficult to pinpoint. For some people, addiction may be the result of genetic as well as environmental factors. One of the most important is exposure to drugs and alcohol or gambling in childhood. Children who grow up in homes where drug and alcohol abuse are present are more likely to develop an addiction later in life. Similarly, people who have a history of mental illness or trauma are also at increased risk for addiction. Genetics also play a role in the likelihood of someone developing an addiction.

Others may become addicted after chronic drug or alcohol abuse or frequent binge drinking or drug abuse that is in response to stress, social or other anxiety, as well as losses. Drugs, alcohol, and even gambling can change the brain’s chemistry and reward pathways, which increases the risk of addiction. Addiction may also develop after using drugs, alcohol, or gambling to self-medicate for an underlying mental health condition.

While these major causes can predispose someone to addiction, it often takes a major life event to trigger addiction. For example, loss of a job or the death of a loved one can lead to drug use or heavy drinking as a way of coping with the pain. Someone may take up gambling as a way to relax or to try to dig themselves out of financial debt. Once someone begins excessively using drugs, alcohol, or other methods to put off dealing with their problems, they can quickly develop an addiction.

Our addiction treatment in Virginia Beach, VA treats a variety of underlying causes of addiction, and helps people overcome addiction by targeting the root causes that have led someone to engage in addictive behaviors.
