Dependencies

Addictions are caused by a combination of biological, psychological, and social factors that interact with each other. Biological causes include genetic predisposition and changes in the brain, particularly in the reward system, related to neurotransmitters. 

Psychological factors include low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, as well as trauma and stress that a person tries to "escape" from. Social causes include the influence of the environment, family problems, and the presence of addictive behavior patterns in the family or social circle.  

At the Experio Center, specialists treat such diseases:

Alcoholism - is the most common addiction in which a person constantly consumes alcoholic beverages, facing withdrawal symptoms (hangovers), chronic intoxication, and health complications. The disease is widespread among people of all ages and social status, with most patients denying that they are ill.

Cannabis (marijuana) addiction is a mental condition in which a person feels an inherent need to use marijuana, despite the negative consequences for their health, social and professional life.

Dependence on psychostimulants - drugs that have an excitatory effect on the human central nervous system and activate mental activity. Prolonged use of stimulants or their use in large quantities leads to increased anxiety, paranoia, heart disorders, behavioral disorders, secrecy, aggressiveness, and financial problems.

Smoking is a craving for nicotine, which disrupts metabolic processes in the brain and makes a person constantly crave tobacco to maintain well-being and emotional state.

Other types of addiction - pathological cravings can be caused not only by chemicals, but also by other factors. As a result, computer, gaming, food, sexual addiction, shopaholism, workaholism, and addiction to relationships and gadgets can occur. 

Clients also turn to the specialists of the Experio clinic due to a relapse in previous treatment and with a desire to help an addicted friend or relative.

Diseases have different clinical manifestations, so it can be difficult for a sick person and their loved ones to understand whether there is a need to see a specialist or whether the behavior is a variant of the norm. At a consultation with a psychiatrist, you can get an accurate answer and understand what treatment will be effective in each case.

The patient can safely talk to the narcologist about any topic. There are no wrong or stupid questions: the more information a person receives at a consultation, the better he or she will understand how therapy works, and the easier it will be for him or her to undergo treatment.

For an initial conversation with a specialist, it is not necessary to come to the clinic. Many patients are physically unable to get to a medical center, others do not want to violate confidentiality, and still others are embarrassed to talk about the problem in person. An anonymous conversation via zoom or messenger is a modern format that can be used by anyone who needs help.
