Many people do not believe that the drugs they use will cause them to become addicted. Substance abuse, on the other hand, can lead to dependency and addiction. Addiction develops when a person is exposed to a substance in such a way that their body and mind grow reliant on it to operate. This can lead to a slew of health, social, family, financial, and security issues.
