Alcoholism is an addiction to alcohol, characterized by the inability to stop drinking even though it's causing health, relationship, legal, and/or financial problems. Addiction is a chronic and relapsing disease, which means that it can't be cured, and although it can be treated and sent into remission, using alcohol again after treatment can cause the physical addiction to return.
Addiction is a disease that's characterized by the inability to stop using drugs or alcohol even though the abuse is causing problems in your life. Over time, drug and alcohol abuse can change the way the brain functions, leading to withdrawal symptoms when the drug use is discontinued. Withdrawal symptoms are the body's way of telling you it's become dependent on the drug and needs it in order to function "normally."
Dual diagnosis is a term that's used to describe someone who has a mood disorder such as bipolar disorder or depression as well as an addiction to or dependency on drugs or alcohol. While these issues fall under one term, it's important to know that someone with a dual diagnosis suffers from two separate illnesses, each of which requires its own treatment plan.
Detoxification is the first step in drug addiction treatment, and it breaks the physical addiction so that treatment for the psychological aspects of addiction may begin. During detox, drugs are withheld from the body, and withdrawal symptoms soon set in. As the drug is flushed from the body by normal biological functions, the withdrawal symptoms begin to fade away and brain function starts to return to normal.
