Substance use and addiction are national health issues that affect millions of Americans every year. Addiction is an illness that impacts the individual and their loved ones. This page is meant to provide you with information on what exactly addiction is, different types of addiction, and treatment and support options for those affected by addiction.
Addiction is a common term, but what exactly is it? Addiction is a brain disease that causes an individual to continue using a substance even though the individual wants to stop or physically can’t stop. Addiction is not a moral failing of the individual. There is a tremendous amount of neuroscience and brain chemistry needed to understand what is actually taking place in addiction. These resources provide deeper information regarding the science of addiction, how addiction does not discriminate, and how to support someone with addiction.
These resources give an overview of alcohol and drug use, as well as commonly abused drug and their effects.
Consuming drugs and/or alcohol does not mean that the individual is addicted to the substance. In order to determine if treatment is needed, an individual would need to have an assessment completed to determine if they meet the diagnostic criteria. One quick tool to determine if you need an assessment would be to complete the attached quick screening tools. If you complete a screening and it shows that an assessment may be needed, contact any of the treatment providers listed under the Treatment Providers Tab. If you would like to talk to someone about your drug use prior to completing an assessment, please feel free to schedule an appointment with a Counselor or Psychologist at your Campus’ Counseling and Psychological Services Center.
