A member asked:
Can the brain recover from drug use early in life?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Most likely: The brain's and body's ability to repair itself never ceases to amaze me. If you had a significant addiction problem or abused drugs early in your life there is a good chance that you can experience full recovery. There might be other untreated psychiatric issues going on such as adhd, depression or anxiety and a good evaluation by a psychiatrist who is asam (http://www.Asam.Org/) certified.
