Addiction is a chronic brain disorder characterized by compulsive drug use. Dependence, in contrast, describes physical changes that occur within the body after it becomes accustomed to the presence of a certain substance or activity. Many people get these two meanings confused when it comes to substance abuse.
It is important to note that addiction and dependence are not interchangeable terms; people can be addicted without being physically dependent on a substance or activity, while those with physical dependence may not necessarily be considered addicted. In order for an individual to receive proper treatment for their addiction, it is important to understand both components of this complex illness.

What are Common Types of Addiction?
There are many different types of addiction but regardless of what substance is being abused, we provide quality treatment options for each of these.
Alcohol addiction is a form of substance use disorder that involves an individual’s compulsive and excessive consumption of alcohol despite the physical and/or psychological harm it causes. Those who suffer from this illness experience a strong craving for alcohol, as well as physical withdrawal symptoms when it is taken away or reduced. Alcohol addiction treatment in New Jersey includes comprehensive therapy and medication-assisted treatment.
Benzodiazepines are a class of prescription sedatives and tranquilizers that are commonly prescribed to treat anxiety, insomnia, and muscle spasms. Benzodiazepine addiction is the use of benzodiazepines even though it has become compulsive and causes harm to the individual. The use of benzos can often lead to dependence very quickly, only after a few uses. We offer benzodiazepine rehab treatment in New Jersey for those who struggle with this substance.
Cocaine is a powerful stimulant that produces intense feelings of euphoria when it is used. Cocaine addiction is the excessive use of cocaine regardless of the negative side effects on a person’s health and well-being. Anyone who suffers from this illness experiences strong cravings for cocaine, as well as symptoms of withdrawal when its use is reduced or stopped.
Prescription drug addiction is the compulsive use of prescription medications, even if it causes harm to a person’s health, career, or family life. People who suffer from this form of addiction can expect strong cravings for these medications, as well as withdrawal when their usage is reduced or stopped. Treatment for prescription drug addiction typically involves detox followed by counseling and behavioral therapy.
Heroin is a powerful opioid that produces intense feelings of euphoria when individuals engage in its use. Heroin addiction is the inability to stop the use of heroin even if it’s causing negative side effects to a person’s life. Those who suffer from heroin addiction experience strong cravings for heroin, as well as physical and psychological withdrawals when heroin use is halted.
Opioids are a group of drugs that are derived from the opium poppy plant and are commonly prescribed for pain relief. Opioid addiction is the compulsive use of opioids despite its physical and psychological harm. Individuals who suffer from this illness experience strong cravings for these drugs when they stop using.
Methamphetamines, or meth, are highly addictive stimulant drugs that produce intense feelings of euphoria and energy when they are abused. Meth addiction occurs when a person frequently abuses methamphetamines to the point of dependency and addiction. There can be serious mental and physical consequences of meth addiction.
