Simply the substance used.
This describes addiction, characterized by a compulsive need to use a substance despite negative consequences. It involves both a physical dependence, leading to withdrawal symptoms when the substance is not used, and a psychological dependence, where a person feels a strong urge or craving to use the substance.
Substance abuse and substance dependence are two different things. Substance abuse- is when someone is using a substance more than directed or they are using it for different reasons than what it is for. Substance dependence- is when you have developed a need physicall and/or mentally for it and without it your body in some way experiences a withdrawl.
Psychological dependence is a condition where a person believes they need a substance in order to feel normal or cope with daily life. It involves craving the substance and feeling unable to function without it, even if there are no physical symptoms of withdrawal present. This type of dependence is often linked to mental and emotional factors, rather than physical changes in the body.
Physical dependence on a substance is a physiological rather than a psychological dependence.
