Is Addiction Biological, Psychological or a Social Issue?
Question by : Is addiction biological, psychological or a social issue?
I am looking for answers to support my theories in the aspects to the Bio-Psycho-Social model, but I am tired of hearing clinical explanations supporting text book definitions, what i am looking for is personal thoughts and feelings on the birth of addiction in you or someone that you may know. Thank you so much. 😎

Answer by fuzzsta8
the guy above me is wrong about drugs
not all drugs are pyhiscally addictive (you dont refer to them as biologically addictive just so you know)
most are and when you try to quit your body has problems functioning without the drug
marijuana is one drug that isn’t phyiscally addictive
psychological addiction is anything you like so much youd rather keep doing it that do something else
this can be TV, the internet, or reading and community service
social addiction is when you only continue to do something to fit in socially ( thats how i understand it, i may be wrong on this one), this can lead to a physical addiction through peer pressure
