When your behavior is regulated with drugs, what happens when your body eventually builds up an immunity and makes them less effective? Or when the patient stops taking the drugs, for whatever reason?

I know that in some cases medication is the only solution. But in many instances, are we simply treating the symptoms and not the root cause?
