Abstract

Emotion regulation is the process that controls and modulates internal affective states and emotion-related physiological responses. Healthy and adaptive emotion regulation requires intact functioning of the central nervous system’s physiologic, experiential, and cognitive reactions to given situations. Difficulties in emotion regulation contribute to the development of substance use disorders (SUDs), are more pronounced in individuals with SUD compared to controls, worsen SUD severity, and increase relapse risk.
