Facts

  • Young adults are particularly prone to take part in binge drinking and to suffer repeatedly from withdrawal from alcohol, which may be a key reason for alcohol's harmful effects on the brain.
  • Long term marijuana users typically site using the drug to enhance positive feelings, to become calm, for stress relief and to help cope with everyday life.
  • Students who go to colleges that don't allow alcohol are less likely to drink and more apt to abstain from alcohol.
  • Valium can cause anterograde amnesia (an inability to recall the recent past), which may persist as long as 6 months and may not ever fully return to normal after an individual stops taking the drug.

Adolescents - Jasper

As a parent or caregiver the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment program can be overwhelming and frightening. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional treatment in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug rehabilitation center. Many specialized and age appropriate drug addiction treatment centers have been developed to focus on adolescents and their distinct requirements pertaining to substance abuse recovery. Substance abuse professionals who are skilled in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your loved one and guide them through their recovery process.
