Not just drugs and alcohol: addictions are many more

Even when they are not related to the intake of substances with a direct harmful action on the body, addictions are always negative because they make one a slave to situations or behaviors that one cannot do without, greatly limiting one’s freedom of choice and quality of life. Usually, we find ourselves falling victim to it almost without realizing it and, often, even having a hard time admitting it to ourselves. But what are the substances and circumstances that one should pay attention to in daily life? Here are the
10 most common causes of addiction
.

Drug abuse

Abuse can involve both medicinal and nonmedicinal substances that affect organ functions. Drugs are classified according to their effect: stimulants, sedatives, and hallucinogens.

What to do?

  1. Check vital signs.
  2. Call the emergency room or a poison control center.
  3. Try to identify the substance taken, the amount and the time of intake.
  4. If the subject is vomiting it is necessary to put him on his left side and prevent him from falling asleep on his back.
  5. Do not leave the person alone and try to reassure them.
  6. Do not try to argue with a violent person.
