INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON PSYCHOLOGY AND MENTAL HEALTH
NOVEMBER 22-23, 2021 | Dubai, United Arab Emirates
Theme: Explore the evolution in Psychology and Mental Health
Session: Addiction
Description:
In terms of damage to oneself and others, addiction is
a biopsychosocial condition marked by repeated use of medication or
repetitive involvement in activities such as gambling. According to the
addiction model of brain disease, while a variety of psychosocial factors contribute to the development and maintenance
of addiction, the central pathology that causes the development and maintenance
of an addiction is a biological process that is caused by prolonged exposure to
an addictive stimulus.
Addiction takes an "astoundingly high financial and human toll" on people and
society as a whole. The overall economic burden to society in the United States
is higher than that of all forms of diabetes and all cancers combined.
