ADDICTIO: RISKS AND LETHAL EFFECTS
In many cases, addiction carries serious health risks which may be lethal; the respiratory disorders and cancers associated with smoking, the damage to the liver and brain associated with alcohol, are all examples. In addition there are many harmful effects associated with illegal substances, including the passage of hepatitis and AIDS when needles are shared for injecting the drug. The lifestyle of drug addicts may predispose them to illness and an early death, more so than the drug itself. This, in part, is due to the attitudes of the wider society which may blame them for their habit, deny them access to the addictive substance or force them to conduct their habit in secrecy.
The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental disorders (DSM-III, 1986), classifies the addictions under the organic brain syndromes where they come under the heading of 'intoxication and withdrawal'. Thus they are associated with changes in the functioning of the nervous system. This does, perhaps, over-emphasize organic features, for there are really two types of addiction; physiological addiction and psychological addiction. With physiological addiction the substances induce changes in the body’s function, although there may still be a craving for the substance. A substance may, of course, induce both physiological and psychological dependence.
