Facts

  • The morning after an alcohol binge, the body's organs try to make up for their own water loss by taking it from the brain causing the brain to decrease in size and pull on the membranes that connect the brain to the skull, resulting in pain.
  • Long term and excessive alcohol consumption causes liver cirrhosis (damage to liver cells); pancreatitis (inflammation of the pancreas); various cancers, including liver, mouth, throat, larynx (the voice box), and esophagus; high blood pressure; and psychological disorders.
  • Mistaking poisonous mushrooms for magic mushrooms may cause diarrhea, vomiting and even seizures which may cause a slow, agonizing death.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.

Boaz, KY. - Adolescents

As a parent or caregiver the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment program can be overwhelming and frightening. Sadly, 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 facilities have been created to focus on adolescents and their specific needs pertaining to substance abuse treatment. Treatment professionals who are skilled in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your child and guide them through their recovery process.
