Relapse
In medicine, relapse or recidivism is a recurrence of a past (typically medical) condition. For example, MS or malaria often exhibit peaks of activity and sometimes long periods of dormancy.
In the context of drug use, relapse or reinstatement of drug-seeking behavior, is a form of spontaneous recovery that involves the recurrence of pathological drug use after a period of abstinence. Relapse is often observed in individuals who have developed a drug addiction or either form of drug dependence.
Causes
Substances that may cause addiction or dependence include:
- Benzodiazepines (i.e.: Xanax)
- Opioids activate or block opioid receptors in the brain typically to reduce the effect of pain. Some common opioids are:
- Alcohol produces disinhibition in the nervous system when introduced, and it depresses the frontal cortex while speeding up the rest of the brain. This can lead to decreased ability to perceive and evaluate risks and make good decisions, and other characteristics of what is commonly known as intoxication.

Relapse (Eminem album)
Relapse is the sixth studio album by American rapper Eminem. The album was released on May 19, 2009 under Shady Records, Aftermath Entertainment, and Interscope Records. It was his first album of original material since Encore (2004), following a four-year hiatus from recording due to his writer's block and an addiction to prescription sleeping medication. Recording sessions for the album took place during 2005 to 2009 at several recording studios, and Dr. Dre, Mark Batson, and Eminem handled production. Conceptually, Relapse concerns the ending of his drug rehabilitation, rapping after a non-fictional relapse, and the return of his Slim Shady alter-ego.
One of the most anticipated album releases of 2009, Relapse debuted at number one on the US Billboard 200 chart, selling 608,000 copies in its first week. It produced three singles that attained chart success and has been certified double platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America. The album received mixed reviews from most music critics, who were divided in their responses towards Eminem's lyrics. It has sold more than three million copies in the United States and more than ten million copies worldwide.
