Facts

  • The psychological effects of drug withdrawal can include extreme anxiety, nervousness, rapid mood changes and irritability.
  • Some addicts who use methadone claim that they experience effects similar to that of other opiates such as heroin, albeit not to the same extent.
  • Most adolescents use inhalants because they are cheap, legal, and readily available, which makes them popular particularly among teenagers.
  • Barbiturates are prescribed as anticonvulsants, sedatives, and general anesthetics but can also induce euphoria, elation, and uninhibited behavior which make them candidates for abuse. If individuals suddenly cease using the barbiturates, symptoms of withdrawal syndrome appear 12-20 hours after the last dose.
