[Fatigue in substance abuse disorders].

Fatigue is a common symptom in substance abuse disorders. The most frequent and relevant addiction disorders like alcoholism and dependence of illegal drugs like THC, opioids, cocaine, ecstasy, psycho-stimulants, and GHB/GBL (gamma hydroxybutyrate/gamma butyrolactone; "Liquid Ecstasy") are described, especially the associated symptomatology and specific psychosocial features. The dependence on drugs like benzodiazepines, analgesics, amphetamines and others is also outlined. The distinction between justified and abusive consumption can often be difficult.
