UNDERSTANDING ADDICTION

What is the Disease of Addiction Really?

Some people may think that addiction is a choice. There is certainly a stigma around substance abuse. How do we break that stigma? Education. Let’s dive into what addiction really is.

Addiction is a disease, not a life choice. The cause of addiction can vary person to person. Whether the root of it is trauma, genetics, mental illness, or any other cause, substance abuse and co-occurring disorders can be treated.

Addicts repeatedly use substances despite numerous negative consequences. Continued and consistent use of drugs and alcohol can cause changes in how the brain functions. In order to prevent any further damage and to begin to heal the root of the problem, addiction treatment is needed. That’s where our drug treatment center in Nashville comes in. We are experts in providing professional and compassionate care for addiction.

COMMONLY ABUSED DRUGS

Types of Addictions We Treat in Nashville

Opioids

Opioids are a class of drug that include the illegal drug heroin, synthetic opioids that includes fentanyl, and prescription pain relievers such as oxycodone. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), opioids are responsible for taking over 125 lives each day. Overcoming an opioid addiction can truly be a matter of life or death.

Alcohol

Alcohol addiction (alcoholism) is not an easy addiction to recognize. Determining the difference between a casual drinker and somebody who has an alcohol addiction is not cut and dry. In fact, many professionals with alcohol addictions function normally even under the influence of alcohol. Binge drinking, extreme mood changes, and hiding drinking are some of the signs of alcohol addiction.

Prescription Pills

Between 1999 and 2018 more than 232,000 Americans died due to overdoses involving prescription opioids. Many people believe that prescription pills are safer than illegal drugs but that simply is not true. There are three major classes of prescribed drugs that are misused. These include painkillers, stimulants, and depressants.

Cocaine

Most people use cocaine for the first time thinking that it’s harmless. But cocaine can cause a life-changing addiction and ruin your life, as well as your families. Crack is the less expensive version of cocaine and thus, easier to find. Many people become addicted to crack and/or cocaine in a very short amount of time. Cocaine overdoses are common and can result in heart attacks, strokes, and even death.

Marijuana

Marijuana is becoming a more socially-acceptable drug. In fact, it’s even legal in some states. But, much like alcohol, just because it's legal doesn't mean that you can’t become addicted to it. If you find that you can’t go without smoking marijuana, then you may have a marijuana addiction. Anxiety, irritability, unable to sleep, depression, and a lack of appetite are some of the withdrawal symptoms somebody with a marijuana addiction may experience. If you long to overcome your dependence on marijuana, we can help.

Other Drugs

From designer drugs to hallucinogens, NTS offers a variety of treatment options regardless of your drug(s) of choice. We will help craft a truly personalized treatment plan that works to achieve long-term recovery from addiction.

These are just some of the different types of substances we treat at Nashville Treatment Solutions. We understand that every client is different which is why our tailor-made treatment plans help in achieving long-term recovery from addiction.
