This disorder is also called substance abuse. Causes The exact cause of substance use disorder is not known. A person's genes, the action of the drug, peer pressure, emotional distress, anxiety, depression, and environmental stress can all be factors. Many who develop a substance use problem have depression, attention deﬁcit disorder, post- traumatic stress disorder, or another mental problem. A stressful or chaotic lifestyle and low self- esteem are also common. Children who grow up seeing their parents using drugs may have a high risk of developing substance use problem later in life for both environmental and genetic reasons. Commonly used substances include: Opiates and other narcotics are powerful painkillers that can cause drowsiness, and sometimes intense feelings of well-being, elation, happiness, excitement, and joy. These include heroin, opium, codeine, and narcotic pain medicines that may be prescribed by a doctor or bought illegally. Stimulants are drugs that stimulate the brain and nervous system. They include cocaine and amphetamines, such as drugs used to treat ADHD (methylphenidate, or Ritalin). A person can start needing higher amounts of these drugs over time to feel the same e"ect.

The symptoms occur because you are having a hard time coping. Your reaction is stronger than expected for the type of event that occurred. Causes Many different events may trigger symptoms of an adjustment disorder. Whatever the trigger is, the event may become too much for you. Stressors for people of any age include: Death of a loved one Divorce or problems with a relationship General life changes Illness or other health issues in yourself or a loved one Moving to a different home or a different city Unexpected catastrophes Worries about money Triggers of stress in teenagers and young adults may include: Family problems or conflict School problems Sexuality issues There is no way to predict which people who are affected by the same stress are likely to develop adjustment disorder. Your social skills before the event, and how you have learned to deal with stress in the past may play roles. 1 of 4 12/11/2017, 12:31 PM Adjustment disorder: MedlinePlus Medical Encyclopedia https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/000932.htm Symptoms Symptoms of adjustment disorder are often severe enough to affect work or
