Addiction traditionally refers to a physical or psychological dependence on a substance that alters the chemistry of the brain. This includes alcoholism and drug dependency. However, addiction may also refer to ongoing involvement with a substance or activity in spite of the negative consequences. While it may have initially given pleasure, the substance or activity is now required by the user to feel normal. Users find themselves unable or unwilling to give it up, even if it is taking a toll on them physically, socially, or otherwise. Thus, eating, gambling, exercising, shopping, working, surfing online, and many other normal activities may turn into addictions.

Fact: More than 600,000 Canadians are dependent on alcohol, and nearly 200,000 on illicit drugs.

Fact: 15% of people who were alcohol-dependent had also been depressed in the previous year. For those who were dependent on illicit drugs, the prevalence of depression was even higher: 26%.
