Characteristics
of Addiction/Addictions/Substance Use Disorders
1. Involuntary: Addictions to, or
Substance Use Disorders develop involuntarily. People do not
develop progressive problems with alcohol and other mind altering
drugs because they willfully choose to do so. Most choose to
experiment with substance use as a result of normal social and
cultural pressure. Their personal risk factors create an
involuntarily biopsychosocial reaction to substance use that leads
to the abuse of, addiction to, and dependence upon the mind-altering
substances. (NIDA 2000)
2. Genetically
Influenced: Genetic
factors influence but do not cause addiction or substance use
disorders. Genetically
inherited predisposition must interact with developmental and
environmental risk factors for addiction/substance use disorders to
develop. People with a
strong genetic history of addiction/substance use disorders are more
susceptible to substance-related brain dysfunction and hence more
vulnerable to other psychosocial risk factors. Many people have genetically inherited protective factors
that lower risk of alcohol and drug abuse and dependence.
3. Psychosocially-influenced:
People are more likely to develop an addiction/substance use
disorder if they are the product of a culture that supports
frequent, heavy, and abusive use of alcohol and drugs and have
developed the following addictive beliefs:
Alcohol and drug use is safe and it is good for me, not using
is bad for me. I must
use alcohol and other drugs to function well and have a good life.
Without alcohol and drugs there will be many important things
that I wont be able to do. People
who support my addictions and/or substance use are my friends and
people who oppose it are my enemies. This article was provided by
Terence T. Gorski. Please visit his web site at: http://www.tgorski.com/index.htm
Even
light smoking triples disease death risk
Smokers
who believe a few cigarettes a day dont do any harm will need to
think again.

Look for natural
experiences to talk with your kids/teens about drugs and
alcohol. There are scenes from movies and TV that portray
alcohol and or drugs being used- these would make for a
discussion without confrontation.
