substance abuse; psychoactive substance abuse; psychotropic substance abuse: In the DSM-5 (fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), the categories "substance abuse" and "substance dependence" have been replaced with the overarching category "substance use disorder." This change was made to avoid the confusion between "dependence" and "addiction" and the use of the word "abuse," which can be considered stigmatizing. 5, record 1, English, - substance%20abuse

abus de substance psychoactive; abus de substance psychotrope; abus de psychotrope; abus de substance : Dans le DSM-5 (cinquième édition du Manuel diagnostique et statistique des troubles mentaux), les catégories «abus de substance» et «dépendance à une substance» ont été remplacées par la catégorie générale «trouble de l'usage d'une substance». Ce changement visait à éviter la confusion entre «dépendance» et «addiction» ainsi que l'utilisation du mot «abus», qui peut être considéré comme stigmatisant. 5, record 1, French, - abus%20de%20substance%20psychoactive

Se debe distinguir entre el consumo y el abuso. A partir del momento en que el uso se haga excesivo o indebido, estaremos hablando de abuso. Sin embargo, la distinción se pierde cuando nos referimos a sustancias cuyo consumo ya representa un uso indebido y es por eso común ver consumo, uso y abuso utilizados como sinónimos. 4, record 1, Spanish, - abuso%20de%20sustancias
