Addictions in Men
Men are more likely to develop an addiction than women. Commonly abused substances include alcohol & tobacco. Addiction triggers could be trauma, abuse, mental health disorders or chronic pain. If left untreated, addiction can result in damaged relationships, loss of employment, health problems and even death.
Course Description
While addiction can affect anyone, it often presents itself differently depending upon biological and sociological factors. Research has shown that men are more likely than women to abuse drugs and alcohol. Not only do hormones like testosterone and progesterone metabolize drugs and alcohol differently between the biological sexes, but upbringing and other environmental factors often influence negative consumption habits in men.
