Addictology designates, in France, the medical specialty at the crossroads of all disciplines serious about man and his behavior. The strategy is intended to be typical, scientific, clinical, but in addition political, with regard to all addictive behaviors.
Note that in Quebec, addictology isn't regarded as a medical specialty by the College of Physicians.
In France, addictology has created by bringing together professionals in the fields of alcoholology, tobacco science and drug addiction. Epidemiological data show a rise in polyconsumption, and addictology wants to globalize and strengthen public health policies in these places. The concept is to no longer be interested in a product, but rather in consumer behavior additional commonly.
To far better recognize, recall that addiction refers to a extra or much less alienating and destructive dependence on products (alcohol, tobacco, drugs, narcotics, etc.) or behaviors (games of possibility, gambling, sex, clothes , internet use, and so forth.). An addiction is defined as a harmful attachment to a substance or activity. It leads to a deprivation of freedoms, too as physical, psychological, relational or perhaps social problems.
When to consult an addictologist?
The addictologist receives all people with dependence problems vis-à-vis a substance, legal or not, or perhaps a behavior. These include things like:
tobacco (nicotine);
the alcohol ;
cannabis;
opiates (heroin, morphine);
cocaine;
gambling;
games of possibility;
gender;
or compulsive purchasing.
As outlined by Inserm (¹) (National Institute of Health and Medical Study), tobacco is the product with the strongest addictive power, with 32% of its buyers becoming dependent, followed by heroin (23%) , cocaine (17%), and alcohol (15%).
What does the addictologist do?
The part of your addictologist consists in preventing, evaluating but also treating and making sure the follow-up of people with addictions. He can practice inside a private practice, but also inside a CSAPA (Center for care, support and prevention in addictology). He's then surrounded by a multidisciplinary team, which welcomes his individuals anonymously. With each other, they offer:
listening ;
medical, psychological and socio-educational assessment and support;
referral to specialized establishments for weaning or specific care, if necessary.
In Quebec, you can find no addictologists, but you will find drug addiction treatment centers, in which a multidisciplinary group (doctors, nurses, social workers, etc.) requires care with the sufferers.
