People have been using addictive substances for a variety of reasons for thousands of years. And throughout history, people have had different perspectives on these substances. But psychological research helps us understand what’s going on in the brain and body when we use addictive substances. So as our knowledge of psychology grows, the way we think about substance use is changing, too. In this episode of Study Hall: Intro to Psychology, we’ll learn more about substance use disorders and how they can be treated.
