There are several biological factors that can cause addiction. Some of the important ones are as follows:

Genetics- The problem of addiction transcends through generation, from grandparent to parent to children.

Family issues- Chaotic environment at home arouse insecurities that can push a person towards addiction.

Mental disorders- Mental disability or weakness may also cause addiction.

Peer influence- Friends, relatives and colleagues also may compel a person to start using drugs.

Community pressure- The outlook of the community as a whole can cause addiction.

Failures- Repetitive failures may dishearten a person to such an extent that he/she may find solace in drugs.
