Alcohol and other drug abuse is also known as substance abuse. It is using alcohol and other drugs inappropriately and illegally to get high and/or not feel physical or emotional pain or boredom. Substance abuse includes the use of illegal drugs, prescription medications, inhalants, and injections. When someone starts abusing drugs they never mean for it to get “out of hand” and yet they become addicted to substances over a period of time. Statistics have proven time and again that if a person incorrectly uses substances, he or she will more than likely become addicted. Some people become addicted to pain killers after an injury or surgery and over time, become dependent on the medication even though they don’t need it. It can happen that easily to anyone.

WARNING SIGNS You May Be Abusing Substances:

• Inappropriate use of the drugs you’re taking, even if they are prescribed by your doctor. You don’t use them to treat pain but just to “feel good.”
• Use of substances is causing problems with you, your family, your friends, or your employer.
