Understanding Prescription Drug Addiction

Prescription drug addiction is perhaps one of the most misunderstood of all the addictions. The reason is that many people begin taking prescription drugs at the direction of their physician for pain, sleep, anxiety or emotional struggles.

Unfortunately, prescription drug addiction is a common occurrence. In general, people with prescription drug addiction fall into one of the following three categories:

Those who take prescription drugs, like Oxycontin, to alter their mood or "get high." Over time, they become physically and emotionally dependent on the medication and must continue to take the medicine to avoid the painful withdrawal symptoms.
Those who take the medication how it was prescribed, yet become dependent on it due to its normal addictive qualities.
Those who start out taking the medication as prescribed and then begin to abuse it by increasing their dosage. Eventually a tolerance develops and the person suffers greater withdrawal symptoms after each use, so they take end up taking even more. This creates a vicious cycle.
