Substance addiction is the strong urge to frequently use substances such as narcotics,
alcohol and prescription drugs even in the clear knowledge of the occurrence of undesirable side
effects. Addiction has been considered as a disease since it affects the abusers’ brain, neural
system, social life and general body comfort leading to behavioral alliteration (American
Addiction Centers 2019).
