Facts
Some drugs create frightening emotional reactions. LSD, for example, can cause nightmares, panic attacks, continuous visual hallucinations, and even psychosis. When this happens the person becomes mentally unbalanced and loses contact with reality. Erika, who dropped acid every day during the ninth grade, recalls sometimes seeing LSD trails. This phenomenon occurs when a person sees the image, or trail, of a moving object, such as where a waving hand had just been. Erika says that even eight hours after she took acid, when the other effects would have almost worn off, the scary trails would still be there. At other times she felt unreal. "Once I took acid and felt like I was on another planet," she says. "I didn't know if I was the only person on the earth." In order to determine whether inpatient or outpatient treatment is best for you, there are a number of things to consider. First, it is important to understand the basic differences between the two. Inpatient or residential treatment provides 24 hour care at a live-in facility. Along with constant medical supervision, inpatient treatment centers provide detoxification services, a very structured and defined environment, individual, group and family therapies, as well as a number of other services. Most outpatient centers do not address medical conditions and nutritional needs. Patient's who require that kind of assistance will need to find other help options, as opposed to those within an inpatient treatment center where all services are provided at one location. Psilocybin and psilocin are found in at least 15 species of mushrooms - so called "magic mushrooms" - belonging to the genera Psilocybe, Panaeolus, and Conocybe. 56% of students in grade 5 to 12 say that alcohol advertising encourages them to drink. |
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.
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 Side Effects
Drug addiction and abuse comes with a heavy price. There are drastic drug side effects associated with drug misuse and abuse. Drug side effects from legal and illegal drugs can range from mild itching to comas and death. In addition to the physical drug side effects mentioned, there are many psychological drug side effects of drug abuse; the most serious being drug addiction and overdose.
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.
Sobriety
Sobriety means the moderation in or abstinence from consumption of alcoholic liquor or use of drugs. When an individual with an addiction problem enters drug rehabilitation, their main goal is to attain long term sobriety. Unfortunately, sometimes drug addicts and alcoholics find they are able to sustain short periods of sobriety followed by a drug or alcohol relapse. This is why attending a drug or alcohol rehab will help the individual maintain their focus on sobriety. Often, it is only by getting help that individuals with severe drug addiction problems are able to achieve lasting sobriety.
