Drugs abuse is when a drug user, a drugs addict or junkie is dependent on narcotic drugs: opiates, benzodiazepines and barbiturates. Drugs use is often an interplay between mental and physical dependence on the substance, and it can difficult to wean users from the drug. The concept of 'drugs' used in this context, all substances included on the UN drugs lists, and not specifically about agents acting narcotic (drug addiction intervention Lafayette CA).

Some psychiatrists, however, have attempted to develop this vision, including Olievenstein who in his writings also developing aspects of crop-borne against this consummation. Western addict then often uses a range of specific products (including heroin, LSD, cocaine, hallucinogenic mushrooms and hashish, looking for specific effects, stimulants, sedatives or psychedelic).

Harmful use or dependence on drugs is defined in official diagnostic systems like ICD-10 mental disorders. Most people who are addicts often suffer while other mental disorders such as anxiety, depression, personality disorders, bipolar disorder, ADHD or PTSD. Some of disorders can caused by drugs abuse.

There are no objective criteria that separates dependence from alcoholism. The former believe that drug dependence include irresistible physical dependence, is now abandoned. It is estimated odd forms of habituation, which just any covers direct physical symptoms. Especially after long-term use of opioids like heroin may end in use provide strong physical symptoms such as vomiting and convulsions, and in extreme cases can result in death.

Their involvement in psychotherapy is often random, frequent relapses what makes a certain resignation begins to gain psychiatric practitioners who then begin to use the alternatives before the AIDS epidemic will come rushing this remedy, especially methadone, like health emergency solution.

The priority appears therefore slower in some countries, France in particular, to limit the spread of AIDS rather than eradicate consumption. Are then established, alternative programs, including with prescribed heroin in specialized centers. Theses although sometimes opposed because ofir research fields are not exclusive of each other. The mechanism of drug involves many factors.

This public health problem relayed by the establishment of international rules governing some of products brings a vision in West where the addict is often depicted as an injector user of an illegal psychotropic (heroin). In 1980s, the public health problem related to practice of injection will be amplified by the onset of AIDS virus and Hepatitis C (originally called "non-A non-B") and hepatitis B largely transmitted by users using injection or to a lesser extent by inhalation diseases.

Therefore, the term is less utilised. This criticism is understandable, but it is also assumed that finally describes the situation very well because it is in fact poison consumed doses and especially that it is a "crazy" consumption (mania) as it can lead to all the excesses, abuses and lapses. Some strictly limited to use of banned psychotropic substances (or drugs); others use it to refer to any consumption of psychotropic substances without distinguishing the types of consumption (consumption problem, occasional, etc.).

Numerous global authors agree more to that drug abuse and alcoholism are the consequences of bipolar disorder, not disease by, explaining that many addicts are found to respond positively to criteria bipolar disorder and numerous bipolar recount abuse or alcohol). Other authors emphasize the fact that in majority of drug users, there are bipolar symptoms before the first consumption of drugs and alcohol. This diagnostic hypothesis could explain difficulty of adherence and relapse despite constant cures.
