FAQs
Common questions about substance use disorders
It’s completely normal to have questions about substance use disorders, especially since everyone’s experience with it can look and feel different. We’re here to bring you clarity.
A substance use disorder is a medical condition involving the compulsive use of alcohol or drugs despite harmful consequences.
We understand it’s not about a lack of willpower, it’s about brain chemistry, environment, and emotional coping. Treatment helps you regain control and improve your health.
Substance use disorders often develop from a combination of factors, like genetics, trauma, stress, and other mental health conditions.
While substance use can temporarily relieve pain or anxiety, the brain becomes more and more dependent on their effects over time, leading to stronger cravings, withdrawal symptoms, and increased use.
We’re here to help you break that cycle.
Substance use disorders involve chemical dependence on a substance like alcohol or drugs.
Addictive disorders, such as gambling or compulsive gaming, involve behavioral addictions that activate similar reward systems in the brain but don’t involve substances.
Substance use disorders often overlap with:
- Depression
- Anxiety
- PTSD
- Bipolar disorder
- Borderline personality disorder
Medical issues like liver disease, infections, or heart problems can also be common.
Co-occurring conditions may increase a risk of relapse or complicate recovery, which is why a whole-person approach to psychiatric care matters. That’s what you’ll find at Peak Mental Healthcare.
You might have a substance use disorder if you:
- Feel unable to stop or cut back
- Experience cravings or withdrawal symptoms
- Use more than you intended or for longer than planned
- Continue using despite health, work, or relationship issues
- Spend excessive time obtaining, using, or recovering from the substance
- Withdraw from activities or relationships
- Engage in risky or illegal behavior to obtain or use the substance
- Use to cope with mental health symptoms like anxiety or depression
At Peak Mental Healthcare, we specialize in psychiatric evaluation and medication management. If appropriate, we prescribe medications that reduce cravings, ease withdrawal, or block the rewarding effects of substances.
Treatment is outpatient, meaning it doesn’t occur in a hospital or at a rehab facility and no inpatient stay is required.
While we focus on medication management, we may also provide brief psychotherapy during appointments when it’s beneficial, or we can always refer you to trusted therapists for ongoing support.
With us, you’ll have a partner who will make sure the approach feels safe, sustainable, and aligned with your recovery goals.
