Opelika, AL Drug Rehab Facilities Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers in Opelika

The 1st stage of substance use is called "Experimental" or "Recreational" substance use. Oftentimes for many people that experiment with substances, it goes no further and they conclude it's not for them. Sometimes the decision to never do it again is due to a bad experience or reaction to the drug; these are the fortunate ones because sadly many other people end up having an enjoyable experience driving them to do it again and again. These are the ones that advance to the 2nd stage of substance abuse, "Continued Use". When a person progresses to the Continued Use stage and they continue abusing the drug or substance they will quickly progress to the 3rd stage of substance use which is called the "Tolerance" stage. At this stage the person begins to develop immunity to the regular amounts of the substance they are using. At this point they feel the need to consume more and more of the drug or substance in order to feel any effect of the substance. As the person keeps using more and more of the drug, they continue to develop an even greater tolerance to the drug. At this point the individual must use very large amounts of the substance just to experience any effects. It is at this point that the individual has arrived at stage 4 of substance abuse, and what is known as "Addiction". The person at this stage will feel that it is practically impossible to quit using the substance, even when they no longer enjoy using it. Actually, at this stage they usually know that the substance is killing them and they desire to stop, but they discover they may not be able to quit on their own. Even when their behavior is exhausting their family and loved ones, they usually cannot stop using by their own will. They will try everything possible to stop themselves and at times succeed for short periods, only to relapse just when things appeared to be improving. If you or someone you love has become addicted to drugs or alcohol, get help before it's too late.
