Substance related and addictive disorder

Short Note

Solution

When someone has an addiction, they are unable to stop using hazardous substances like opium, charas, ganja, heroin, etc. or engaging in addictive behaviours like gambling and gaming. It includes reliance and a lack of self-control when using it. His mental, social, and moral well-being are all impacted by addiction. Additionally impacted are finances and family life. A long-term user of such a substance runs the risk of overdosing and dying. Withdrawal symptoms happen if he stops using the drug or cuts back, endangering his life. It is possible to see tremors or loss of control over motions. Excessive use, an inability to cut back, a desire to use the substance again, a decline in social interactions, etc. are all symptoms.
