Cross Addiction
Taxonomy Code: YF-8000.1500
An occurrence sometimes seen in individuals recovering successfully from an alcohol or other drug use disorder who unexpectedly relapse and later trace the relapse back to a seemingly innocuous prescription issued by their physician for something unrelated such as sleep, pain, anxiety or an attention deficit disorder. Taking an addictive drug of another class may lead to a new addiction, but more than likely will lead back to the original substance of choice. Individuals with a cross addiction may also use seemingly innocent substances, such as over-the-counter sleep aids or prescription sedatives. Some even develop non-substance addictions to activities such as excessive shopping, gambling or sex.
