Substance abuse is a disorder that refers to the abusive use of legal substances, which is most cases in alcohol. This disorder can appear in many forms depending on the individual including lack of school attendance, poor performance, and the obvious changes in close relationships between family and friends.

Substance dependence refers on the continued and frequent use of drugs or alcohol, even after problems including psychological and physical health issues may have developed. Increased tolerance, no desire to refrain from the substance by the individual, and clear withdrawal from social and family activities are all signs of a substance dependency issue.
