  Primary prevention is assisting those who are at risk of developing addictive habits. Secondary prevention involves detecting potentially dangerous substance use before overt indications or problems appear. The purpose of the focus prevention is to stop disease or harm from happening in the first place. This is accomplished through avoiding disease or injury-causing dangers, altering unhealthy or risky behaviours that can lead to illness or injury, and developing sensitivity to disease or injury if exposure occurs. Even though primary prevention strategies have been effective for the treatment of chronic physical diseases, they have been less effective in the treatment of SUD due to misunderstandings about disease, a shortage of behavioural health professionals, and a population-based focus on specific substances. It is necessary to establish a developmental approach to the detection and primary prevention of SUD that does not just rely on behavioural health specialists. The goal o

  CBT is an effective treatment option since it can be used to treat a wide variety of addictions, including but not limited to food addiction, alcohol addiction, and prescription medication addiction.

People, on the other hand, frequently disregard indicators of stress, exacerbating symptoms and prolonging the situation. Chronic stress is unpleasant and may be crippling.  Stress  is a well-known risk factor in the development of addiction as well as the likelihood of relapse. Specific stressors and individual-level variables that are predictive of drug use and abuse have been identified in a series of population-based and epidemiological studies. Stress exposure improves drug self-administration and reinstates drug seeking in drug-experienced animals. Stress has long been recognized to make people more susceptible to  addiction . The knowledge of the underlying processes underpinning this connection has improved dramatically over the last decade. Some evidence of molecular and cellular alterations related with
