Drug addiction such as alcohol, heroin, meth, marijuana, prescription drugs or any other substance or addictive item means that the individual is physically, mentally, or both physically and mentally dependent on the item. They will get withdrawal and/or tolerance symptoms when they don't use the substance. Tolerance means that one needs higher quantities of a substance over time to reach the desired effects.
Another part of addiction is withdrawal symptoms. They are unpleasant physical reactions that occur when the use of the substances is decreased or discontinued.

I'm not just saying this, and I don't spend my time leaving messages/reviews on blogcatalog. In fact, this is my first that has not been in response to a question/etc. someone else asked of me. I LOVE THIS BLOG! Drug policy/addiction science is a PASSION of mine, and this is one of the best blogs I've found. I LOVE LOVE LOVE this blog. It gets a lot of angles, isn't didactic (which a lot of addiction related content can be - regardless of what the philosophy or perspective of the author is) and isn't pseudosciency - in other words, the author presents facts and musings without claiming omniscience. Trends in addiction are presented as neither fact or fluff, but are brought into the conversation responsibly. I think that sort of approach is so important for the general progress of improving both the policy and medicine/health around addiction.
If people want a good addiction blog (or even criminal justice or general mental health) this blog is in my small first batch of recommendations along with sites like Join Together, Drug Policy Alliance, and MAP.
