Addiction

Substance use disorders can affect anyone, including our relatives, neighbors and friends. Addiction is not a choice – science has shown that it’s a chronic disease that leaves lasting changes in the brain and body. Here, you’ll find support and resources to help. Our goal is to help you reach your goal.

 

Types of Addiction 

When people hear of addiction, they usually think of substances like alcohol, prescription drugs, meth or tobacco. But addictions can also be behavioral, including gambling, internet use, exercising, food and more. Addiction is a complex condition tied to the reward center of our brain. If you find yourself repeatedly engaging in something despite negative consequences, you might need help.
