Addiction is defined as a chronic, relapsing brain disease that is characterized by compulsive drug seeking and use, despite harmful consequences. â  It is considered a brain disease because drugs change the brainâthey change its structure and how it works.
Addiction is considered a biopsychosocial disease. What this means is that there are biological, psychological and social or environmental factors that contribute to the development of addiction. In a relapse, some or all of these factors come into play, making recovery more difficult for the addict.
