Group Description

Many illicit drugs are highly addictive and pose serious risks. Using these drugs usually begins as an experiment or because of curiosity. Other times, it may start from using prescription pain medication prescribed to treat an illness or injury.
Over time, a user may become hooked on the mental or physical effects of the drug. This leads to the user needing more of the substance to get the same effects. Without help, a person with an illicit drug addiction will often put their health and safety in danger.
It’s important to remember that addiction isn’t a weakness or choice. According to the American Society of Addiction Medicine (ASAM), addiction is a chronic disease that causes people to seek reward or relief through substances or other behaviors.
