Facts

  • Opiate addicted individuals commonly experience an increase in body temperature, a rush of euphoria, a heavy feeling in the limbs and dry mouth.
  • Most opiate addicted individuals are no longer capable of holding down a job which often leads to loss of health insurance coverage. Diseases and conditions that develop as a result of opiate addiction are therefore often paid for through public funds because these individuals cannot pay for their own treatment.
  • The term "flipping" is used among Ecstasy users who mix the drug with other drugs, primarily because individuals who combine these types of drugs with Ecstasy will usually flip between a psychedelic state and a more lucid state several times during the course of their high.
  • The age range with the highest number of substance abuse treatment admissions reported to State data systems in2008 was the 25-29 group at 14.8 percent, followed by those 20-24 at 14.4 percent and those 40-44 at 12.6 percent.

East Pittsburgh, PA. - Residential Long-Term Treatment (More Than 30 Days)

Going to and finishing a residential long-term treatment (more than 30 days) program in East Pittsburgh is generally the cornerstone in an addict's successful recovery from their personal struggles with drug or alcohol addiction. This type of drug treatment is much more intensive than others since the person lives at the facility full-time through the treatment process. While many addicts are initially hesitant about attending a long-term program lasting longer than 30 days they soon understand the wonderful benefit. A residential long-term treatment (more than 30 days) program provides the recovering man or woman the time to thoroughly withdrawal from drugs and focus on themselves. Shorter programs are not capable of this due to their brief duration.
