Facts
The Rescuer: The "rescuer" doesn't let the incident become a "problem." Since she has been waiting up for him anyway, she goes out in the yard, gets the alcoholic up, cleans him up, and puts him into bed. That way the neighbors never see him passed out in the flower bed! The reason so many teens enjoy marijuana as a social drug is that it tends to help get rid of inhibitions, much like alcohol, but without the hangover afterwards. It can be either smoked as a joint or eaten in just about any food, particularly cookies and brownies. Whether smoked or ingested, marijuana gives the user a high that lasts for anywhere from an hour to a few hours, depending on how strong the weed is and how much was taken in. During this time, the person using the drug usually feels very mellow and may lose track of time. While they feel that they are moving at a normal speed, most people who are high on pot tend to move slower and have much slower reaction times. Not all highs are good. Marijuana also has a bad reputation for causing people to become paranoid. In some cases, it may even cause what is called, "acute panic anxiety reaction" or a major panic attack that can last for several hours. Epidemiological studies have shown some interesting relationships between drug use and occupations. For example, alcohol problems seem to be more common in jobs involving daily activities that expose the workers to a high risk of injury. Alcohol problems also seem to be more common among bartenders and others who work in places where alcohol is sold. There is no average drug user. The use of alcohol, tobacco, and other drugs occurs among males and females and across many personality types, conditions of urban or rural living and points in between, social classes, occupations, and age groups. Some groups may be more likely to start using drugs or to become drug dependent once drug use starts, but everyone is at some risk for drug use. Although there was little change in past month use of cigarettes, alcohol, and illicit drugs among adolescents between 2006 and 2007, the rates generally declined between 2002 and 2007 (cigarettes from 13.0 to 9.8 percent, alcohol from 17.6 to 15.9 percent, and illicit drugs from 11.6 to 9.5 percent). The decline in past month illicit drug use can be attributed primarily to a decline in marijuana use, with 8.2 percent of adolescents using marijuana in 2002 compared with 6.7 percent in 2007. Past year dependence on or abuse of alcohol remained relatively stable among adolescents between 2002 and 2007, but dependence on or abuse of illicit drugs declined from 5.6 to 4.3 percent. |
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.
Detox
Detox is necessary when an individual through their chronic use of drugs or alcohol has developed an addiction. The objective of detox is to help the individual achieve a drug and alcohol free state. Detox is intended to relieve the physical symptoms of withdrawal and helps prepare the individual for entry into drug rehabilitation. Therefore, the ultimate goal of detox is preparation for long term recovery from drug and alcohol addiction.
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.
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.
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.
