Differences between Substance Use Disorder and drug misuse

Although Substance Use Disorder and drug misuse are sometimes used interchangeably, there are a number of key differences to keep in mind.

Drug misuse involves:

  • The unhealthy use of medication, alcohol, or other substances 
  • Using someone else’s medications or substances to treat conditions
  • Pursuing pleasure, relief, or reality avoidance through illicit substances

Drug misuse is generally classified as behavior rather than a mental illness. Patients may feel in control of their drug use and may not always exhibit the symptoms of addiction.

Substance Use Disorder is somewhat different. Patients may experience:

  • The inability to say no to drug use, even with realized consequences
  • A desire to stop using drugs, although they feel unable to do so
  • Changes to their brain structure, including their pleasure and reward centers

Patients experiencing Substance Use Disorder often feel a compulsion or deep need to use drugs. Clinicians classify Substance Use Disorder as a mental illness and may prescribe treatment modalities depending on patient needs.

If you believe you or a loved one is currently experiencing the symptoms of Substance Use Disorder, know there is hope for recovery. It’s critical to reach out to a trained clinician for help — including the professionals at Promising Outlook.
