    More often than not, drug and process addictions start with the experimental use of a drug, or a behavior such as exploring pornography when it comes to sex addiction. And for some people, their use becomes more frequent. As time passes, a person may feel the need to use more of a drug or behavior to get their desired high, and soon a person may need it to simply feel “good.”

    Drug addiction symptoms and behaviors include, among others:

    • Feeling the need to use the drug regularly or behavior, which can be daily or multiple times a day
    • Having intense urges for the drug or behavior.
    • Over time, needing more of the drug or behavior to get the same effect
    • Being certain that the availability of the drug or isolation with the behavior.
    • Not meeting obligations and work responsibilities
    • Doing things you wouldn’t normally such as stealing
    • Focusing more and more time and energy on acting out.
    • Experiencing withdrawal symptoms when not using
    • Failed attempts to quit using

    If you can relate to any of the above symptoms or behaviors, it may be time to consider addiction counseling.
