On the other hand we have learned a great deal about the nature of drug addiction on an individual level and how to treat a person afflicted with the malady. Today, there are many different treatment options for a person that has developed a drug addiction problem. How do you know if a person has a drug addiction problem? It is a simple test. When faced with serious negative consequences, brought about by their drug they continue to use. These serious negative consequences of their drug use may be, loss of employment, legal issues, marital problems, abusing or neglecting their children and in spite of these consequences brought on by their drug use they will continue to use. A person in the throes of drug addiction will promise to stop and mend their ways yet continue to use and manifest the same unacceptable behavior associated with drug addiction.
