Natural Cures for Addictions

Author Information

by mike last modified 2008-09-07 18:07

Addictions in the broadest sense of the term includes substance abuse, misusing drugs such as heroin, cocaine and alcohol (alcoholism) as well as the more socially acceptable but potentially damaging addictions to video games, caffeine, gambling or sex.

An addiction is anything for which the person affected has a psychological and/or physical dependence to the extent that it requires fulfillment on a regular basis.

Addiction is a major problem and can lead to crime and social breakdown for the sufferer and their family and friends.
