Facts
Individuals who have developed tolerance to opioids and who have overdosed on hydromorphone are not likely to develop the serious depression of the respiratory system that occurs in individuals with no such tolerance who have overdosed on hydromorphone. The typical treatment of narcotic overdoses with narcotic antagonists can lead to a severe withdrawal reaction in those who have developed tolerance to opioids. To abruptly stop using benzodiazepines may produce a withdrawal syndrome. These withdrawal symptoms include increased anxiety and insomnia (the inability to fall or stay asleep)—the same conditions for which benzodiazepines are generally prescribed. Because the term "withdrawal" is usually applied to drugs of abuse (as opposed to drugs being taken for therapeutic reasons), the symptoms that occur when a person stops taking benzodiazepines are sometimes called abstinence syndrome or discontinuance syndrome. The major symptoms of withdrawal from benzodiazepines are anxiety, restlessness, and difficulty falling asleep. These symptoms may be mild, causing little more than an annoyance for a few days. Or they may be quite severe and even more intense than the symptoms of anxiety or insomnia for which the drugs were initially prescribed. When the initial symptom, such as anxiety or insomnia, returns in a more severe form, this is known as the rebound symptom. Rebound symptoms usually occur within hours to days of stopping the drug and then gradually fade. In some cases, however, the symptoms may be so intense that the patient takes the benzodiazepine again for relief. The patient may continue to take the drug as a way to treat or prevent withdrawal symptoms, rather than to treat an anxiety or sleep disorder that was the original problem. Research clearly demonstrates that marijuana has the potential to cause problems in daily life or make a person.s existing problems worse. In one study, heavy marijuana abusers reported that the drug impaired several important measures of life achievement including physical and mental health, cognitive abilities, social life, and career status.11 Several studies associate workers. marijuana smoking with increased absences, tardiness, accidents, workers. compensation claims, and job turnover. Fewer children report knowing what to do if someone offers them drugs. |
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.
Abstinence
Abstinence is the act or practice of refraining from indulging a desire. The type of abstinence we are referring to here is abstinence from drugs and alcohol. This term has two connotations when it comes to abstaining from drugs. The first refers to drug or alcohol treatment programs that aim to help an individual stop using drugs or alcohol for the rest of their lives. The time abstinence is also used in drug education and prevention. It refers to trying to stop children from ever using drugs.
Alcoholism
Alcoholism, also known as "alcohol dependence," is a condition that includes craving and continued alcohol abuse despite repeated drinking-related problems, such as losing a job or getting into trouble with the law. It includes four major areas: Craving: - A strong need, or compulsion, to drink. Impaired control: -The inability to limit one's drinking on any given occasion. Physical dependence: -Withdrawal symptoms, such as nausea, sweating, shakiness, and anxiety, when alcohol use is stopped after a period of heavy drinking. Tolerance: - The need for increasing amounts of alcohol in order to feel its effects.
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.
Drug Abuse
Drug abuse is defined as the chronic or habitual use of any chemical substance to alter states of body or mind for other than medically warranted purposes. Drug abuse is a problem which has an effect on people of all income levels,
ages, and stations in life. Quite often the last person to see that there is a
problem is the drug abuser them self. Every year, more and more people become
drug addicts in their pursuit to get "high".
