These can account for sometimes uncontrollable cravings for the drug or substance even though it hasn’t been used in sometime. Strong feelings of guilt and depression are also common long term effects of addiction due to sacrificing of integrity and values that accompanies the addictive lifestyle. These three points are common to addictions of all sorts and are the reason for continued use and relapse.
