What Research Tells Us About Addiction

Addiction as we know is a brain disease that develops an unending urge to use drugs or alcohol. It has emerged to become one of the most common health conditions in the present time. Many treatment centers and rehabilitation facilities are established across the globe to help addicts get past their addictive traits. However, these correction facilities don’t guarantee a 100% recovery. Why? Here's what research tells us.
