ADDICTION REHABILITATION CENTERS IN CANADA  Can Drug Addiction be treated and cured?  Like any other chronic disease, drug addiction can be treated and cured; but only if the person afflicted wants to be treated and cured. A person who has an addiction must realize that because the addiction did not happen in a day, it is going to take some time for the treatment to start working. When seeking treatment for an addiction, the person needs to take the following steps:  Have the desire to stop using the drug and then to make an honest effort to stop using it.  Remain drug-free; eliminate people and other stimuli that you relate to the drug from your life;  Become a productive member of your family, society, and your work; focus on something—anything that keeps your mind from craving the drug.
