7 Signs Of Opioid Addiction
A horrible opioid crisis is devastating our country. It’s estimated more than 118 people perish every day in the United States from an opioid-related overdose. When someone becomes addicted to opioids, the danger of overdose greatly increases.
Opioid addiction is defined by obsessive use and a lack of control. Once addicted, the urges to use opioids are so intense it can be hard to stop. Continuing to use opioids despite major consequences is the ultimate sign of addiction.
3 Healthy Activities For Those In Addiction Recovery
Having a lot of free time for a recovering addict is not as simple and carefree as it is for someone who has never struggled with an addiction. Idle time can lead to boredom and temptations to use.

For these reasons, it’s important to have healthy activities incorporated into an addiction recovery plan for long-term success.
