Opioids are prescribed to treat pain.  However, the pain relieving effects can lessen as the body becomes more dependent on the substance.  Oxycontin was introduced in 1996, and has created a great deal of problems with it's addictive effects.  One of the driving factors of drug dependence is that people what to avoid the withdrawal.  They will resort to other drugs, such as heroine, as a substitute.  It can take up to 8 years to recover from this addiction, and this is to claim sobriety for one year.  This can also include 4 to 5 treatment facilities.  This, of course can lead to negative effects in personal relationships and finances.  The ages that this mostly effects at this time is between 19 and 60+.  One of the books that talks to the heart of this epidemic is called Dopesick by Beth Macy.

LENS neurofeedback can help with the brain function of addictions.  The price is greatly reduced compared to the other financial problems.
