Substance Use Disorder

Empowering Recovery, Transforming Lives

Substance Use Disorder (SUD) is a complex condition characterized by the compulsive use of substances despite harmful consequences. Tulua Health is committed to providing comprehensive and compassionate care for individuals struggling with SUD, offering a path to recovery, health, and a renewed sense of purpose.

Understanding Substance Use Disorder

SUD affects an individual's brain and behavior, leading to an inability to control the use of legal or illegal drugs, alcohol, or medications. Symptoms can range from health problems, disability, and failure to meet responsibilities at work, school, or home. Recognizing the signs of SUD is the first step towards seeking help and recovery.

Recognizing the Signs of SUD

The manifestation of SUD can vary widely among individuals but often includes:

• Increased Tolerance: Needing more of the substance to achieve the same effect.
• Withdrawal Symptoms: Experiencing physical or psychological symptoms when not using the substance.
• Loss of Control: Using more of the substance or for a longer time than intended.
• Neglect of Activities: Giving up important social, occupational, or recreational activities.
• Continued Use Despite Problems: Using substances even when it causes or exacerbates problems.
