What does Physiological Dependence involve regarding drug use?

  1. Using male privilege

  2. Longstanding conditions causing functional impairment

  3. Repeated drug use to avert physical withdrawal

  4. Providing information for making trauma-informed decisions

The correct answer is: Repeated drug use to avert physical withdrawal

Physiological Dependence involves repeated drug use to avert physical withdrawal. This means that when a person becomes physiologically dependent on a drug, their body has adapted to the presence of the drug, and they may experience withdrawal symptoms if they suddenly stop using it. This aspect of drug use focuses on the physical need for the substance to avoid these uncomfortable or harmful withdrawal symptoms. Options A, B, and D are incorrect as they do not relate to the concept of physiological dependence regarding drug use.
