Question

Describe the difference between psychological dependence and physiological dependence.

Answer 1

Esto último refleja una dependencia física en la que el cuerpo se adapta a la droga, por lo que requiere cantidades mayores de la misma para lograr un determinado efecto (tolerancia) y provoca síntomas físicos o mentales específicos si la droga se interrumpe abruptamente

Answer 2

In comparison to physical addiction, psychological addiction occurs when a person does not have a physical need for a drug but rather a mental desire for it. Psychological addiction is most common in people who use substances like marijuana. Psychological addiction can occur with essentially any substance.
