Addictions. Addiction is a condition in which the body must have a drug to avoid physical and psychological withdrawal symptoms. Addictionâs first stage is dependence, during which the search for a drug dominates an individualâs life. An addict eventually develops tolerance, which forces the person to consume larger and larger doses of the drug to get the same effect. Adapted from the Encyclopedia of Psychology.
