Disorders Treated at Addiction Centers

Addiction centers are designed to treat a wide variety of disorders. Addiction cannot be encompassed by one thing. There are many types of addiction. Many of these types of addiction are not just about drugs. These addictions also often co-occur. According to the American Psychological Association, an addiction is dependence on a drug or behavior that the body must have in order to avoid physical or psychological withdrawal symptoms. Addiction centers treat all sorts of addictions.

Drug Addiction

This is one of the main addictions that addiction centers treat. Some addiction centers only treat one drug addictions such as opiates, while others treat multiple addictions. These centers also treat the mental illnesses that often coincide with addiction.

Drug addiction is a complex illness that often requires both physical and mental treatment. Most drug addiction treatment centers are designed to treat these mental and physical illnesses as well as coinciding additions.

Food Addiction

Food addiction is not always recognized as a legitimate addiction but when one examines the consequences of it, it is easy to see how destructive it can be. There are centers designed specifically to treat the different food addiction disorders such as:

  • Anorexia – a disorder where a person starves themselves thinking they weight too much,
  • Bulimia – a disorder where an addict binges and then purges on food.
  • Binge eating – this addiction forces people to binge eat but there is no purge sequence along with it.

Although everyone needs food, it is hard to see it as an addiction. The addiction portion of the problem comes in when a person cannot stop eating despite the negative consequences.

Gambling Addiction

This addiction is often brought on by stress and is corrected by counseling and intensive therapy. Most gambling addicts have a compulsion to take chances on things not just gambling but other types of chances such as driving too fast or other risk taking behavior.

Gambling addiction can start extremely small with simple games of chance and move towards spending thousands in casinos across the world. Some people have made careers of gambling addiction such as professional poker players and horse racers.

Alcohol Addiction

Alcohol addiction is one of the most widespread addictions. Many addiction treatment centers offer alcohol addiction treatment only. Most alcohol addiction treatment centers also contain a medical detox and a hospital unit due to the dangers of alcohol addiction treatment and alcohol withdrawal syndrome.

Combination Addiction Treatment Centers

There are combination addiction treatment centers as well as those that treat specific addictions. These combination centers are the most common and treat multiple addictions at the same time. Most addiction treatment centers are equipped to deal with multiple addictions, multiple mental illnesses, and multiple diseases because of the way that these conditions often coincide.
