      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      Are there racial inequities of the treatment of addictive disorders?

      Yes, racial inequities do exist in the treatment of addictive disorders, reflecting systemic disparities that pervade many aspects of healthcare. These inequities can occur across multiple dimensions, including access to treatment, quality of care, and outcomes. Here are some ways in which these inequities manifest:

      • Access to treatment: Racial and ethnic minority groups often face barriers to accessing substance use disorder treatment. These barriers can include factors like limited availability of treatment services in certain communities, lack of insurance or underinsurance, economic challenges, and lack of transportation.
      • Quality of care: Even when individuals from racial and ethnic minority groups do access treatment, they may not receive the same quality of care as their white counterparts. This could be due to factors such as a lack of culturally competent care, bias or discrimination within the healthcare system, or treatment approaches that do not adequately consider cultural or community-specific factors.
      • Treatment outcomes: Racial and ethnic disparities also exist in treatment outcomes for substance use disorders. For example, research has shown that African American and Hispanic individuals often have lower rates of successful completion of substance use disorder treatment programs compared to white individuals.
      • Criminal justice involvement: There is a disproportionately higher rate of criminal justice involvement for substance use issues among people of color, particularly among African American and Hispanic populations. This can impact access to quality treatment, as well as long-term outcomes such as employment and social reintegration.
      • Research gaps: Historically, much of the research on substance use disorders has primarily involved white participants, leading to a lack of data and understanding about the unique experiences, needs, and treatment responses of individuals from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds.

      Can I go cold turkey to stop abusing opioids?

      While going "cold turkey," or suddenly stopping the use of opioids, might seem like a fast way to begin recovery, it's generally not recommended due to the severity of withdrawal symptoms and potential health risks.

      Opioid withdrawal can be intensely uncomfortable and, in some cases, hazardous. Symptoms can include severe cravings, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea, vomiting, cold flashes, and involuntary leg movements. In severe cases, withdrawal can lead to serious dehydration or electrolyte imbalances.

      Furthermore, abruptly stopping opioid use can significantly increase the risk of relapse. The discomfort of withdrawal symptoms may make it more difficult to stay abstinent, and an individual may be tempted to use again just to relieve these symptoms. If a person relapses and takes the same dose they were previously accustomed to, the risk of overdose is high because the body's tolerance to the substance has decreased.

      For these reasons, opioid withdrawal should ideally be managed under the supervision of healthcare professionals. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which includes medications like methadone, buprenorphine (Suboxone), and naltrexone, can be used to help reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings. These medications work by acting on the same brain receptors targeted by opioids, but they do so in a safer manner that helps to manage withdrawal and reduce the risk of relapse.

      In addition to MAT, counseling and behavioral therapies are typically part of a comprehensive treatment program for opioid use disorder. These approaches can help individuals develop the skills and strategies needed to maintain recovery in the long term.

      • Non-profit and Faith-based Organizations: Some non-profit and faith-based organizations offer free or low-cost addiction treatment services, such as counseling, group therapy, and recovery programs. Contact local community centers, churches, mosques, or synagogues to inquire about available resources.
      • Sliding Scale Treatment Centers: Some addiction treatment centers offer services on a sliding scale, meaning they adjust fees based on your income level. Contact local treatment centers and inquire about their financial assistance options.
      • State-Funded Treatment Programs: Many states provide funding for addiction treatment programs that offer free or low-cost services to eligible residents. Contact your state's health department or substance abuse agency to learn more about available programs.
