Introduction to Addiction and Substance Use DisordersCognitive-behavioral modelsCognitive-behavioral models say that incentives pave the way for conditions conducive to need for drug abuse. Drug use is associated with experiences such as self-exploration, religious knowledge, mood modification, escape from boredom or despair, enhancement of creativity, performance, sensory experience or pleasure, etc. (Capuzzi and Stauffer, 2012). Cognitive behaviorism has provided appreciated data while refining theories and treatments. This model stands out from other models of addiction because it separates itself from expressive, organic, or public causes of addiction. Because it focuses on the patient's own beliefs rather than their influence. The mental process of cognition is related to perception, judgment and reasoning. Cognitive behaviorism affects a person mentally as well as their physical reaction to stimuli. For example, if a person is depressed, the depression is mental, but when a person cannot get out of bed, does not want to eat, or does not want to participate in other activities that they usually do, it is physical . The factor that can lead a person to use is becoming a victim of substance abuse and starting to abuse drugs by using drugs to distance themselves or numb themselves from their depression. According to A. Ellis and AT Beck recognized a concept about the position of cognition. and abnormal behavior while working with clients in therapy. A. Ellis offers an explanation of how the ABC system works; A is the activating experience; B the thought or point of view that he realistically follows; and C, penalty for the individual and the behavior.
