Answer: 
This depends on your state, and which type of substance. For example, Marijuana possession is a criminal offense in some states, in others it is not. For a first offense, a judge is more likely to give a reduced sentence if you are engaged in drug treatment. Seek an attorney or other legal counsel for specific legal advice.
