Understanding Toxicomania: Causes, Symptoms, and Treatment Options

Toxicomania is a psychological disorder characterized by an excessive and compulsive consumption of substances, such as drugs or alcohol, despite the negative consequences it may have on one's health, relationships, and daily life.
It is also known as addiction or dependence.
The term "toxicomania" was coined in the 19th century to describe the excessive use of opium, but it has since been applied to other substances, such as alcohol, cocaine, heroin, and prescription medications.
Toxicomania can cause significant distress and impairment in an individual's life, and it is often associated with other mental health disorders, such as depression, anxiety, and personality disorders.
Treatment for toxicomania typically involves a combination of behavioral therapy and medication, and may involve inpatient or outpatient programs, depending on the severity of the addiction.
