Triggers can include cravings for drugs or alcohol, emotional reactions to past negative experiences, and other factors such as stress or social situations. Resources such as SAMHSA’s National Helpline are available to answer questions about substance abuse and its symptoms. Coping with triggers involves developing better habits and avoiding common triggers. Understanding addiction triggers and developing strategies to cope with cravings is essential in maintaining sobriety.
