Facts
Of the four major opium source areas in the world, Mexican-produced “black-tar” and brown heroin are generally the lowest in purity. An increase in heroin overdoses in the western United States in the late 1990s, however, reflected an increase in the purity of Mexican heroin. Although production has fluctuated over the last decade, 69 metric tons of opium was produced in 2005. Mexican farmers (like Colombian poppy growers) use small, widely disbursed plots in remote regions to avoid having their crops detected and eradicated. These fields are often inaccessible to aerial eradication efforts. According to alcoholism and alcohol abuse statistics, the number of people in the U.S. who have a "drinking problem," meaning that they engage in abusive drinking or are alcohol dependent is clearly off the charts. These statistics on alcohol abuse and alcoholism statistics strongly support the perception that the U.S. is facing an alcohol abuse/alcoholism problem of enormous proportions and that alcoholism and alcohol abuse are incredibly widespread. The DEA says oxycodone and hydrocodone are among the most abused of the prescription painkillers. An increasing number of people who abuse these drugs are requiring medical attention because of side effects, overdose, and other issues that arise when the drugs are used for reasons other than their intended purpose. Statistics compiled by the Drug Abuse Warning Network (DAWN) indicate that oxycodone-related visits to hospital emergency departments are increasing steadily. In 2000, the number of such visits was 10,825 per year, more than double the 5,211 visits reported just two years earlier. TOLERANCE to Cannabis has been demonstrated in virtually every animal species that has been tested. It is apparent in human beings only among heavy long-term users. Different degrees of tolerance develop for different effects of the drug, with tolerance for the tachycardiac effect (increased pulse rate) developing fairly rapidly. A mild WITHDRAWAL syndrome has been noted following very high doses. |
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.
Intervention
An intervention is when a group of loved ones and/or a trained intervention counselor meets with the person in need of help for the purpose of breaking down their denial and motivating them to immediately seek drug addiction treatment. Often, individuals in the midst of drug addiction engage in a variety of self destructive behaviors. Although baffling to friends and family members such people generally either aren't aware on a conscious level that they have a drug addiction problem, or even when they know they have a problem they may cling to the false belief that the problem will somehow go away without any outside help. When an intervention is held a moment of clarity is created
for the addict. Most people struggling with the problem of drug or alcohol
addiction will accept help the very day of the intervention.
Drug Rehabilitation
Drug rehabilitation is a place or program that an individual enters to treat a drug or alcohol addiction. Through therapy and education, the individual is restored to their former non-drug using self. They are then able to re-enter society clean and sober. There are many reasons why a person would need to attend a drug rehabilitation program. Some of the many reasons are: the inability to control their drinking or drug use, alienating their friends and family, problems with the law, and problems at work. Also, there are several different types of drug rehabilitation programs available: inpatient, outpatient, residential, short-term, and long-term.
Drug Addiction
Drug addiction is a pattern of repeated drug taking that usually results in tolerance (the need for greater amounts of the drug to achieve the same effect), withdrawal (physical and cognitive effects when drug use declines or stops), and compulsive drug taking behavior (drug taking that persists despite efforts to reduce intake and despite problems with family, friends, and work). Drug addiction encompasses a diverse range of drugs (such as alcohol, cannabis, amphetamines, and cocaine) and is caused by many different factors.
Withdrawal
Withdrawal is what happens when a person who is addicted to drugs or alcohol discontinues use. There are numerous symptoms that take place both physically and emotionally when an addicted individual stops using. Withdrawal can last a few days to a few weeks and may include nausea or vomiting, sweating, shakiness, and anxiety. Keep in mind; this only occurs if a person has regular, heavy use of a drug or alcohol. Withdrawal can be extremely uncomfortable without professional help. Treatment for withdrawal from alcohol or drugs may require a medical professional to be present. Drug and alcohol rehabilitation is often the best way to overcome withdrawal and its symptoms as well as recovery from drug addiction.
