What is Substance Use Disorder (SUD)?
Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is a condition characterized by the problematic use of substances such as alcohol, prescription medications, or illicit drugs. It is a complex and chronic condition that can have serious consequences for physical health, mental well-being, and overall quality of life.
Key Features of SUD Include:
- Loss of Control: Individuals with SUD often struggle to control their substance use despite negative consequences such as health problems, relationship issues, or legal troubles.
- Cravings: Strong urges or cravings to use substances, even when it is harmful to do so.
- Tolerance: The need to use larger amounts of a substance to achieve the desired effect, or experiencing reduced effects with continued use of the same amount.
- Withdrawal: Physical or psychological symptoms that occur when the substance is not used, leading to a cycle of continued use to avoid withdrawal symptoms.
- Negative Impact on Functioning: SUD can impair various aspects of a person’s life, including work, school, relationships, and social activities.
