Addict Behavior: What To Watch Out For
Addiction ResourcesIf you are suspicious that someone you know or love is using, the most telling sign of that is their behavior.
When potential addicts begin crossing that imaginary line into full blown addiction, there are a lot of sudden changes in behavior to look out for. While some changes in behavior may be very obvious, others can be a bit more subliminal.
We do not recommend spying or snooping, most of the time addiction will rear its ugly head without invading someone’s privacy. With that being said, we would never tell you what to do within your own family.
Regardless, if you have your suspicions then we have put together some visuals of the warnings signs in the behavior change. There are many more signs and behavior warnings to look out for. We are working on a complete list.
These 3 changes in behavior may be the most telling.

Very good list. I always enjoy your contributions. I would like to ad a few more things to look for. Some other signs in physical appearance can be subtle or very noticeable. With drugs like heroin, Crack, and meth, changes in complexion, acne, and bruising on skin. Abnormal pupils, pinpoint with Opiates and dilated with meth. Itchy skin, over scratching their skin. Picking skin. Bruises on arm and near veins with IV use. Those are all things to look for as well. Thanks for your information and keep on working for the cause!
