      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      What are the signs of addiction?

      Physical symptoms: Changes in appearance, such as weight loss or gain, poor hygiene, bloodshot eyes, or constricted pupils, can be indicative of addiction. Additionally, the person may display signs of intoxication or withdrawal, such as tremors, sweating, or flu-like symptoms.

      Behavioral changes: Addiction can lead to significant shifts in behavior, such as increased secrecy, social isolation, or sudden mood swings. The person may neglect responsibilities, withdraw from activities they once enjoyed, or display uncharacteristic aggression or irritability.

      Loss of control: A hallmark of addiction is the inability to control substance use or engagement in harmful behaviors, even when the person expresses a desire to stop. This can lead to increased frequency or intensity of use, as well as unsuccessful attempts to quit or cut down.

      Preoccupation: The person may become preoccupied with obtaining, using, or recovering from the effects of the substance or behavior, often at the expense of other aspects of their life.

      Risk-taking: Addiction can lead to increased risk-taking behaviors, such as using substances in dangerous situations, driving under the influence, or engaging in risky sexual activities.

      Neglecting relationships: Addiction can strain personal relationships, as the person may prioritize their substance use or behavior over their connections with friends and family.

      Changes in sleep patterns and energy levels: Addiction can cause disruptions in sleep patterns, leading to insomnia or excessive sleepiness. The person may also experience fluctuations in energy levels, such as periods of hyperactivity followed by lethargy.

      Tolerance and withdrawal: Over time, individuals with addiction may develop a tolerance to the substance or behavior, requiring higher doses or more frequent engagement to achieve the desired effect. If the person stops using the substance or engaging in the behavior, they may experience withdrawal symptoms, such as anxiety, irritability, insomnia, or physical discomfort.

      Continued use despite negative consequences: A key sign of addiction is the persistence of substance use or engagement in harmful behaviors despite experiencing negative consequences, such as health issues, relationship problems, financial difficulties, or legal troubles.

      Neglect of responsibilities: Addiction can cause a person to neglect personal, professional, or family obligations, resulting in job loss, financial difficulties, or relationship problems.


      Are there racial inequities of the treatment of addictive disorders?

      Yes, racial inequities do exist in the treatment of addictive disorders, reflecting systemic disparities that pervade many aspects of healthcare. These inequities can occur across multiple dimensions, including access to treatment, quality of care, and outcomes. Here are some ways in which these inequities manifest:

      • Access to treatment: Racial and ethnic minority groups often face barriers to accessing substance use disorder treatment. These barriers can include factors like limited availability of treatment services in certain communities, lack of insurance or underinsurance, economic challenges, and lack of transportation.
      • Quality of care: Even when individuals from racial and ethnic minority groups do access treatment, they may not receive the same quality of care as their white counterparts. This could be due to factors such as a lack of culturally competent care, bias or discrimination within the healthcare system, or treatment approaches that do not adequately consider cultural or community-specific factors.
      • Treatment outcomes: Racial and ethnic disparities also exist in treatment outcomes for substance use disorders. For example, research has shown that African American and Hispanic individuals often have lower rates of successful completion of substance use disorder treatment programs compared to white individuals.
      • Criminal justice involvement: There is a disproportionately higher rate of criminal justice involvement for substance use issues among people of color, particularly among African American and Hispanic populations. This can impact access to quality treatment, as well as long-term outcomes such as employment and social reintegration.
      • Research gaps: Historically, much of the research on substance use disorders has primarily involved white participants, leading to a lack of data and understanding about the unique experiences, needs, and treatment responses of individuals from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds.

      What are the best options to treat drug and alcohol addiction?

      Detoxification: The first step in treating addiction is often detoxification, which involves clearing the body of the substance while managing withdrawal symptoms. This process should be supervised by medical professionals in a controlled environment to ensure safety and comfort.

      Medication-assisted treatment (MAT): MAT combines behavioral therapy with medications to address the physical aspects of addiction. For example, medications such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone can be used to treat opioid addiction, while disulfiram, acamprosate, and naltrexone may be prescribed for alcohol addiction.

      Inpatient treatment: Inpatient or residential treatment programs provide a structured environment with 24-hour care and support. These programs typically offer a combination of individual therapy, group therapy, and educational sessions to address the various aspects of addiction and recovery.

      Outpatient treatment: Outpatient programs allow individuals to receive treatment while maintaining their daily responsibilities, such as work or school. These programs typically involve regular therapy sessions, support groups, and may also include medication management.

      Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT): CBT is a widely used therapy that helps individuals identify and change unhealthy thought patterns and behaviors related to substance use. CBT teaches coping skills and strategies for managing cravings and preventing relapse.

      Motivational interviewing: Motivational interviewing is a client-centered approach that helps individuals explore their ambivalence about change and strengthen their motivation to engage in the recovery process.

      Contingency management: Contingency management uses positive reinforcement, such as rewards or incentives, to encourage abstinence from substances and promote healthy behaviors.

      Family therapy: Family therapy involves working with the individual and their family members to address relationship issues and improve communication. This approach recognizes the role of the family in supporting recovery and aims to create a healthier family dynamic.

      Support groups: Participation in support groups, such as Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) or Narcotics Anonymous (NA), can provide peer support and encouragement throughout the recovery process. These groups offer a community of individuals with similar experiences who can share their stories and coping strategies.

      Aftercare and relapse prevention: Long-term success in recovery often involves ongoing aftercare, which may include regular therapy sessions, support group meetings, and development of a relapse prevention plan. This plan helps individuals identify potential triggers and develop strategies to cope with cravings and high-risk situations.
