It is a common fact that most drug users won’t accept that they are suffering from an addition. Drug abuse can occur without physical dependence.
Following are some prominent symptoms of this illness:
• People indulge into repeated work, school, or home problems due to drug use
• Continued use of drugs even though it means risking physical safety
• Recurring trouble with the law related to drug use, including impaired driving
• Continuing to use drugs despite drug-related problems in personal relationships
Drug abuse often progresses to drug dependence. Symptoms of drug dependence include at least three of the following:
• Craving for the substance
• Inability to stop or limit drug use
• Tolerance—taking greater amounts to feel the same effect
• Withdrawal symptoms that occur when the drug is stopped
• Significant amounts of time trying to acquire drugs and recover from their effects
• Giving up activities to use drugs or recover from the effects
• Drug use continues even when it causes or worsens health and/or psychological problems
