Drug and alcohol addiction is a chronic brain disorder that affects millions of people worldwide. The emotional and physical toll of substance abuse is widely discussed, while the financial side of addiction often goes unrecognized.

The link between ADHD and addiction is rather complex, influenced by genetic and neurobiological factors and similar personality traits associated with both conditions.
