  1. VIRGINIA RECOVERY CENTERS AT VIRGINIA RECOVERY CENTRES, WE ARE AWARE THAT TREATING MENTAL ILLNESS AND ADDICTION MAY BE DIFFICULT AND COMPLEX.

  2. ESCALATING TOLERANCE Developing a higher tolerance for a substance is often a clear sign of advancing addiction. This means that over time, an individual needs larger quantities of the substance to achieve the same effects as before. Escalating tolerance can be a dangerous indicator of growing dependence and a need for professional intervention.

  3. LOSS OF CONTROL One of the most prominent signs of substance abuse is the inability to regulate or control intake. Individuals find themselves consuming larger amounts or using substances for longer periods than intended. Failed attempts to cut down or quit are common manifestations of a loss of control, emphasizing the need for external help.

  4. NEGLECTED RESPONSIBILITIES Substance abuse can lead to a prioritization of the substance over personal and professional responsibilities. This could result in missed workdays, deteriorating performance, or neglect of family and household obligations. The impact on one’s ability to fulfill responsibilities is a significant warning sign that intervention is necessary.

  5. WITHDRAWAL SYMPTOMS When the body becomes accustomed to a substance, sudden cessation can trigger withdrawal symptoms. These symptoms can range from physical manifestations like sweating, nausea, and tremors to psychological effects such as anxiety, depression, and irritability. Experiencing withdrawal symptoms is an indication of physical dependence, requiring professional support to manage safely.
