A Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is a complex mental health disorder that is associated with unhealthy substance use patterns. This disorder is often characterized by substance misuse, an inability to control substance use, and real-life consequences or legal issues because of continued substance use.
Recent numbers from the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH, 2020) revealed that more than 40 million Americans over the age of 12 suffer from a substance use disorder (SUD) – This works out to approximately 1 in 7.[1]
The official diagnostic criteria for SUD, according to the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Health, include:[2]
A substance use disorder can be present with a myriad of substances, both prescription and illegal. In many cases, what often begins as an accepted prescription treatment can escalate into something more severe with the presence of an SUD.
There is so much hope to be found in treatment. It is possible to identify and overcome your substance-related concerns. NUMA expert staff and treatment programs specialize in the following substances:
Dangerous health effects and risks related to SUDs are very real. According to the Center for Disease Control’s (CDC’s) most recent numbers for Provisional Drug Overdose Deaths, approximately 105,879 people died of a substance-related overdose in 2023.[3] As tragic as fatalities are, there are other concerns that are even more common.
The risks and health concerns associated with substance use will be different depending on the substance in question. Some risks of untreated substance use disorder include:[4]
These risks are merely a snapshot of what could be – but this doesn’t have to be your future reality. Professional, holistic treatment is the solution to addressing and healing an SUD and reducing the risk of other serious health concerns.
