The Importance of Treatment
Addiction is more than a physical dependence on drugs. Psychological and social factors are often powerful stimuli for drug/alcohol abuse relapse: Stress, especially sudden life stresses, cues in the environment, like visiting a neighborhood and social networks, like spending time with friends who continue to use drugs. These factors can create ongoing, nearly irresistible urges to use drugs/alcohol.
Our office uses SASSI #3 testing as a part of our intensive Bio-Psychosocial Evaluation.
