Facts

  • Nonstudent, nonmilitary personnel are inclined to continue their alcohol abuse into adulthood, as these individuals do not have access to institutionally based programs that typically serve college students and military personnel.
  • As heroin leaves the brain and body, users experience withdrawal symptoms, which are often described as feeling like a severe case of flu.
  • Stress from problems at work, with family, pain associated as a result of medical problems, individuals from one's drug-using past, and environmental triggers can all create intense drug cravings for addicted individuals without the individual even being aware of it.
  • Just one Ecstasy pill can cause a high which can last anywhere from three to six hours.

La Honda, California - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult experience. Withdrawal Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of methadone. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, nausea, sweating, extreme cravings, tremors, irritability, sneezing, fever, chills, anxiety, fuzzy-headedness, paranoia, hallucinations and clinical depression. Additionally, methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone and how long the person has been using methadone, the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification share that it is important to gradually decrease your dose of the drug over a period of time instead of completely stopping all at once.
