Abuse
Abuse occurs when someone causes harm or distress. It can range from control and disrespect to financial abuse. Additionally, it may involve causing physical or mental pain. Abuse can happen anywhere and at any time. For example, it can take place in someone’s home, at work, in a care home, in a hospital, or even in a public space.

Addiction
Addiction is an uncontrollable urge to do something, which can be difficult to stop. For instance, it can involve substances like cigarettes, alcohol, or drugs, all of which can lead to addiction. These substances can harm you and, in some cases, may even be life-threatening.
Moreover, addiction can also involve psychological dependence on behaviours such as gambling, shopping, or sex. While these are not chemical addictions, they can still cause significant distress. Eventually, they may become so uncontrollable that they lead to negative consequences, such as relationships being affected, falling into debt.
