      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Not blinded, Placebo: Used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Health service research, Randomization description: Random numbers are generated using R software and General Integer option, so that the largest and smallest desired number (1 and 10) with the specified sample size (80 people) is entered in the software and a random combination of 80 is created from numbers 1 to 10. The generated sample is then used to assign individuals to the samples. In this way, every ten random numbers generated in a block is a random combination of numbers from 1 to 10.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group: 1- tDCS: Oasis Pro tDCS from Mind Alive Canada will be used to stimulate direct current stimulation. Anode or excitation electrode with dimensions of 25cm2 (5 * 5 cm) on the left prefrontal cortex (F3) and  cathodal or inhibitory electrode with dimensions of 25cm2 (5 * 5 cm) on the right prefrontal cortex (F4),  It will be set at 1 mA for 20 minutes, then rested for 15 minutes and then the second phase of electrical stimulation will be applied exactly according to the previous protocol and for a duration of 10 sessions of treatment . In order to eliminate the carry-over effect and also the possibility of patients' exposure to other environmental stimuli, sessions with a time interval of 48 hours have been considered. Intervention 2: Intervention group: 2- CBT: Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) sessions based on the matrix model include a 2-month treatment period containing 24 treatment sessions of 3 sessions per week  with 45-minute period, individually or in groups of 4 to 12 for individuals in cognitive - behavior therapy experimental groups will be performed, which is as follows. These therapy sessions will be performed using the psychotherapy of dependence on stimulants (glass) with the matrix pattern. Title of treatment sessions includes, Session 1: Individual motivational feedback and evaluation of the benefits of quitting drugs for the individual. Session 2: Introducing High-Risk Situations and Triggers. Session 3: Introducing the recovery path and roadmap. Session 4 and 5: Introduction and diagnosis of external and internal starters. Sessions 6, 7 and 8: Identify major problems on the path to recovery, including: family distrust, reduced energy and power, misuse of drugs and other substances as alternatives. Sessions 9, 10 and 11: Dealing with the desire to use drugs (dealing with temptation) and the wrong ways to deal with temptation. Session 12: Dealing with negative thinking and identifying thoughts, feelings and precursor behaviors of consumption. Session 13: Identify the feelings and physical symptoms of depression and boredom. Session 14: Training on relapse prevention activities. Session 15: Introduction to relapse predisposing activities. Session 16: Examining employment and its role in the process of recovery. Session 17: Familiarity with feelings of shame and guilt and how to manage them. Session 18: The role of enjoyable and exciting activities in the daily routine. Session 19: How do we shape our motivation for recovery? Session 20: Introduction to truthfulness skills during recovery. Session 21: Learning problem-solving skills without the use of any drugs (complete purity). Session 22: Familiarity with the process of addictive sexual relations and its complications. Sessions 23 and 24: Identify behaviors related to recurrence and prevent them. Intervention 3: Intervention group: Combined group CBT and tDCS: Electrical stimulation intervention and cognitive-behavioral therapy will be applied simultaneously to individuals in this group as mentioned in interventions 1 and 2. Intervention 4: Control group: The control group will consist of 20 participants who will not receive any electrical intervention or cognitive behavioral therapy and all questionnaire and laboratory tests will be taken from them. Since this group is also an sham electrical intervention group, the tDCS device will be placed on their head with exactly the same conditions as the electrical intervention group, but no electric current will be applied to their skulls and the device will only be turned on and off once for them.</i_freetext>
