Hallucinogen use disorder is a type of substance use disorder that can develop after a person repeatedly uses hallucinogens. People with hallucinogen use disorder will continue to take hallucinogens even though they cause problems in many parts of their lives. These problems can negatively affect a person's relationships, work, and physical and mental health.

OBS

hallucinogen addiction; hallucinogenic drug addiction: The word "addiction" is sometimes considered stigmatizing.

OBS

hallucinogen dependence: The description of "hallucinogen dependence" found in the DSM-IV (fourth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) corresponds to the concept now named "hallucinogen use disorder."

OBS

hallucinogen dependence: In the DSM-5 (fifth edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders), the categories "hallucinogen abuse" and "hallucinogen dependence" have been replaced with the overarching category "other hallucinogen use disorder." This change was made to prevent confusion between "dependence" and "addiction," and to avoid the use of the word "abuse," which can be considered stigmatizing. The adjective "other" is used to indicate that phencyclidine (PCP) is excluded from this category.

OBS

dépendance aux hallucinogènes : La description de la «dépendance aux hallucinogènes» trouvée dans le DSM-IV (quatrième édition du Manuel diagnostique et statistique des troubles mentaux) correspond à la notion maintenant désignée par le terme «trouble de l'usage d'hallucinogènes».

OBS

dépendance aux hallucinogènes : Dans le DSM-5 (cinquième édition du Manuel diagnostique et statistique des troubles mentaux), les catégories «abus d'hallucinogènes» et «dépendance aux hallucinogènes» ont été remplacées par la catégorie générale «trouble de l'usage d'un autre hallucinogène». Ce changement visait à éviter la confusion entre «dépendance» et «addiction» ainsi que l'utilisation du mot «abus», qui peut être considéré comme stigmatisant. L'adjectif «autre» est utilisé pour souligner le fait que la phencyclidine (PCP) est exclue de cette catégorie.

OBS

addiction aux hallucinogènes; addiction aux drogues hallucinogènes : Au Québec, l'anglicisme «addiction» est à éviter, mais il est accepté ailleurs dans la francophonie. En outre, il est parfois considéré comme stigmatisant.
