Facts

  • Nearly 1.5 million adolescents ages 12-17 meet the criteria for alcohol dependence or alcohol abuse.
  • When people mix cocaine and alcohol the dangers associated with the use of these substances are compounded, and the human liver combines cocaine and alcohol and manufactures a third substance, cocaethylene, which intensifies cocaine's euphoric effects while also increasing the risk of sudden death.
  • Withdrawal symptoms associated with methadone can include but are not limited to body aches and muscle cramping, back aches, leg kicking, anxiety, chills, shivering or trembling, abdominal cramping, weakness, increased blood pressure, convulsions, insomnia, diarrhea, running nose, watery eyes, sneezing, sweating, pale and clammy skin, nausea and thoughts of suicide.
  • Vicodin increases levels of dopamine in the brain, which produces an intense euphoria or what is known as a high when it is abused.

Girard - Adolescents

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment center is often an overwhelming task. 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 treatment facility. Many specialized and age appropriate drug rehab programs have been developed to focus on adolescents and their specific requirements pertaining to drug addiction rehabilitation. Substance abuse professionals who are trained in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your child and guide them through their recovery process.
