      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      How can society prevent teen substance abuse?

      Preventing teen substance abuse requires a comprehensive, multifaceted approach that involves various sectors of society, including families, schools, communities, and the healthcare system. Here are some strategies that can be employed:

      Education and Awareness: Schools and communities can provide education about the dangers of substance abuse, the nature of addiction, and the benefits of healthy lifestyle choices. This education should be accurate, age-appropriate, and engaging.

      Family Engagement: Parents and caregivers play a critical role in prevention. They can talk openly with their children about substance abuse, set clear expectations around substance use, monitor their children's activities and friendships, and provide a supportive and nurturing environment.

      Early Intervention: Early identification of risk factors for substance abuse (such as mental health issues, academic struggles, or behavioral problems) can allow for timely intervention. Healthcare providers, educators, and parents can all play a role in identifying and addressing these risk factors.

      Access to Mental Health Services: Teens with mental health conditions are at a higher risk of substance abuse. Ensuring access to mental health services can help address these underlying issues and reduce the risk of substance abuse.

      Healthy Activities: Providing teens with opportunities for healthy, engaging activities (like sports, arts, volunteering, etc.) can reduce boredom and stress, provide a sense of purpose and belonging, and offer positive alternatives to substance use.

      Community Support: Communities can create environments that support healthy choices and discourage substance use. This can include things like enforcing age restrictions on the sale of alcohol and tobacco, providing safe and substance-free recreational opportunities for teens, and fostering a community culture that values health and wellbeing.

      Substance Abuse Programs: Schools and communities can implement evidence-based substance abuse prevention programs. These programs can teach skills for resisting peer pressure, making healthy decisions, and coping with stress.

      Policy Measures: Policies can be implemented that help prevent substance abuse, such as those that limit the advertising of alcohol and tobacco products, regulate the prescription of addictive medications, and support substance abuse prevention and treatment services.

      Peer Support and Leadership: Peer-led initiatives can be very effective in preventing teen substance abuse. Teens may be more likely to listen to and be influenced by their peers. Peer leaders can model healthy behaviors, challenge norms around substance use, and provide support to their peers.


      What does fentanyl do to a person?

      Fentanyl is a synthetic opioid pain reliever that is 50 to 100 times more potent than morphine. It's typically used to treat severe pain, especially after surgery, or to manage pain in individuals with chronic illnesses who have developed a tolerance to other opioids.

      When used under medical supervision, fentanyl can effectively relieve pain. However, when used illicitly or without a prescription, it can have severe, and even fatal, effects. Here's what fentanyl can do to a person:

      Physical Effects: In the short term, fentanyl can induce feelings of relaxation, euphoria, and decreased perception of pain. However, it also slows breathing and can lead to unconsciousness or death from respiratory failure, particularly in high doses or when combined with other substances that depress the central nervous system.

      Dependency and Addiction: Fentanyl is highly addictive. Regular use can lead to physical dependence, where the body requires the drug to function normally, and psychological addiction, where a person feels a compulsive need to use the drug despite its harmful consequences.

      Overdose Risk: Due to its potency, the risk of overdose with fentanyl is high, especially if a person mistakenly believes they're taking a less potent opioid, as illicit fentanyl is often mixed with other drugs. Overdose can lead to severe respiratory depression, unconsciousness, and death.

      Withdrawal: Once a person becomes dependent on fentanyl, stopping its use can result in withdrawal symptoms. These can include muscle and bone pain, sleep problems, diarrhea, vomiting, cold flashes, and uncontrollable leg movements.

      Long-Term Health Effects: Chronic fentanyl use can lead to an array of health problems, including severe constipation, increased sensitivity to pain, confusion, depression, and increased risk of infections due to needle sharing (if injected).

      Due to its potency and high risk of overdose, non-medical use of fentanyl is extremely dangerous. If you or someone you know is struggling with fentanyl or other opioid use, it's crucial to seek professional help immediately.


      How do addictive drugs influence behavior?

      Addictive drugs influence behavior by interacting with the brain's reward system. This system is responsible for driving pleasurable feelings and motivating behaviors essential to human survival, such as eating and socializing. Addictive substances can hijack this system, leading to changes in behavior and brain function.

      Here's a simplified explanation of how this works:

      Alteration of Neurotransmitter Activity: Addictive substances often increase the levels of certain neurotransmitters, chemicals that transmit signals between nerve cells in the brain. One key neurotransmitter affected by many drugs is dopamine, which is closely associated with feelings of pleasure and reward.

      Overstimulation of the Reward System: By increasing dopamine levels, addictive drugs overstimulate the reward system, often creating a sense of euphoria. This intense pleasure can lead individuals to repeat the drug use to recapture this feeling.

      Development of Tolerance and Dependence: Over time, the brain adapts to the increased dopamine levels by producing less dopamine or reducing the number of receptors that can receive signals. As a result, the drug's effects are lessened, a phenomenon known as tolerance. This can lead users to take increasingly larger doses of the drug to achieve the same dopamine high. This cycle can lead to dependence, where the brain relies on the drug to function normally.

      Withdrawal and Cravings: When the drug is not taken, withdrawal symptoms can occur as the brain attempts to rebalance itself. These can include negative emotions like anxiety and depression, physical symptoms like nausea or restlessness, and intense cravings for the drug.

      Compulsive Drug-seeking Behavior: As the cycle of tolerance, dependence, withdrawal, and cravings continues, individuals may engage in compulsive drug-seeking behavior, even when faced with negative health, social, or legal consequences. This is a key characteristic of addiction.

      Impairment in Decision-making and Self-control: Long-term drug use can also cause changes to other areas of the brain that impair decision-making, self-control, judgment, learning, and memory, further fueling the cycle of addiction.
