Facts
The recent increase in ecstasy use among college students has left prevention workers feeling anything but euphoric. Although the use of alcohol and most other drugs has remained steady over the last 5 years, ecstasy use has more than doubled. This dramatic increase, coupled with the unique characteristics of this substance, warrants a concerted prevention effort specific to this drug. In the present article, we outline the history and current epidemiology of MDMA, more commonly known as ecstasy, X, E, or XTC, and provide directions to equip readers to respond to this growing problem. Ecstasy is unlike any other drug in terms of its effects and the myths surrounding its use. Students who use ecstasy fit a very different profile from students who use other drugs. Recent scientific studies reflect growing concern about the possibility of long-term neurological damage as a result of recreational use of MDMA. Current drug prevention efforts seem to have failed with ecstasy users. Although rates of other illegal drug use by young adults have remained stable, the use of ecstasy has risen in nearly every age group. From the 1860s through the early 1900s, cocaine was thought to be a "cure-all." Medical experts mistakenly believed that, like the whole-leaf form, powder cocaine was also non-addictive. For more than four decades, cocaine use was unregulated and widespread in both Europe and the United States. No prescription was necessary to obtain the drug, and it could easily be purchased at grocery stores, at drugstores, and through mail-order catalogs. Containers of 99.9 percent pure powder cocaine were available for sale on the open market. Although experts maintained that powder cocaine was not an addictive drug, frequent and heavy users began showing unmistakable signs of physical and PSYCHOLOGICAL DEPENDENCE. By the close of the nineteenth century, reports of nasal damage, addiction, and cocaine-related deaths had surfaced. The toxic and addictive nature of cocaine became public knowledge. By the time the U.S. government stepped in to ban cocaine in 1914, most people were already shunning it. The purity of today's heroin poses another problem. Currently, heroin on the streets is the purest it has ever been, averaging about 40 percent. It is so pure that it does not have to be injected: It can produce a high and a rush by being sniffed or smoked. Without the stigma of the needle, heroin appeals to a larger group of people than ever before. A Worcester, Massachusetts, newspaper reports that the emergency room there sees a lot of heroin overdoses. "A lot more heroin users are snorting the drug as opposed to injecting it. When heroin is very pure and snorted, it causes a bad reaction. . . . many users are not accustomed to the pure heroin sold on the streets. . . . Users who get out of jail after a short hiatus from the drug are in for a surprise."For these reasons, overdoses can happen to novices or longtime heroin users. Will, an addict, tells about the death of his friend Harry from an overdose of heroin: Feeling fine, partying on, and as usual, talking the sort of crap to each other that only a 15 year friendship brings. We had the dope, and I nodded off. I woke up and Tom was dead. I knew as soon as I saw his grey face that this was true, but I'd revived him in the past, so I tried to now. It didn't work. The ambulance confirmed it. I remember giving him mouthto- mouth and hearing a gurgling in his lungs. Why I'm still alive, I don't know, or only God knows, if you prefer. I can't say I would never take those drugs, if I had the time again, but I would do anything to bring Tom back, only I can't. Given the similarity of its chemical structure to MDMA and the relatedness of effects on the user, it seems reasonable to infer that 2C-B may possess similar neurotoxic qualities, but more research is needed before any such conclusions can be drawn. |
Tolerance
Tolerance to a drug takes place when an individual is exposed to the same drug repeatedly and begins to build up an resistance to the drugs effects. The body then adapts and develops a tolerance for the drug. The addiction that is produced is so powerful that it creates cravings in the user. These cravings for the drug are the result of its impact on the individual's memory with feelings of pleasantness and euphoria which the individual has come to associate with the taking of the drug.
Residential Treatment
Residential treatment offers intensive drug addiction help over a period of weeks or months. This form of treatment has some advantages over out-patient treatment, although it may not be suitable for everyone. For example, those who are responsible for caring for young children may be better suited to attendance at an out patient treatment program. Residential treatment offers a safe, drug and alcohol-free environment where individuals can confront their own drug addiction and associated issues, with the help of qualified staff. Therapy usually consists of a mixture of group counseling, individual counseling and an introduction to the principles of a drug recovery program.
Addiction Treatment
Addiction treatment is needed when an individual finds that they have developed a drug or alcohol addiction which they are not able to successful end on their own. With the help of addiction treatment, addicted individual can get help to control their drug taking behavior and live happy and successful lives. There are several addiction treatment options available for drug and alcohol addiction. Some of these options include self-help groups, counseling, drug rehabilitation programs (in and out-patient), and residential treatment facilities. Each of these differ
in their aims and outcomes and elements of these addiction treatment options are often
combined.
Addiction
Addiction is one of the many consequences of so-called 'casual' drug and alcohol abuse. A loss of control over drugs and alcohol can be driven by physical or psychological factors, or sometimes both. Physical addiction takes place when the body comes to need a drug to function normally. If it is not taken, unpleasant withdrawal symptoms occur. The only way to avoid this is to take more of the drug. Psychological addiction takes place when an individual comes to rely on a drug to supply good feelings, such as relaxation, self-confidence, self esteem, and freedom from anxiety. This is not just a casual desire, it's a powerful compulsion.
Addict
An addict is an individual who has a compulsive urge to use drugs, to the point where they feel they have no effective choice but to continue use. An addict will continue their self destructive behaviors in order to feel good or to avoid
feeling bad. It can dominate their mind, and keep them coming back for more. The addiction can be
different for each addict, depending on their vice and the kind of person they
are.
