This behaviour results largely from the effects of prolonged drug exposure on brain functioning. Addiction is a brain disease that affects multiple brain circuits, including those involved in reward and motivation, learning and memory, and inhibitory control over behaviour.
Treatment in a criminal justice setting can succeed in preventing an offender’s return to criminal behaviour, particularly when treatment continues as the person transitions back into the community. Studies show that treatment does not need to be voluntary to be effective.
Medications offer help in suppressing withdrawal symptoms during detoxification. However, medically assisted detoxification is not in itself “treatment”—it is only the first step in the treatment process. Patients who go through medically assisted withdrawal but do not receive any further treatment show drug abuse patterns similar to those who were never treated.
Take care always!!
