On the other hand, another reason to attend rehab is to get away from the negative consequences of addiction that eventually far outweigh any pleasure you may receive from using drugs or alcohol. These negative effects eventually occupy the addicts life and make things extremely difficult, often causing the person to eventually look for rehabilitation.
Substance abuse disorders first affect the addict. In many cases, you can experience health problems - including weight loss or gain, decreased immunity to illnesses, changes in sleep patterns, withdrawal symptoms, etc, as well as more serious health problems. The addiction can also affect your emotional and mental state.
Regardless of what you might want to believe, the health risks of severe drug and alcohol abuse will commonly not keep you from abusing these substances. Particularly, loved ones and family members will find the addiction to be difficult and distressing. They might also struggle living with you and possibly even refuse to continue being around you while you continue to use drugs or alcohol. After all, it is difficult to be a good wife, husband, mother, father, or even child while you are always under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.
Drug and alcohol abuse also affects all of society in general, particularly with respect to public safety. While abusing drugs or alcohol, for instance, you may be a danger to yourself and to others - particularly if you drive while high or drunk.
