Facts

  • Studies have shown that individuals struggling with drug addiction often suffer from other health problems, including mental health issues and even occupational, legal, familial, and social problems; issues which should be addressed concurrent to any treatment when the individual is taking part in a drug rehab program.
  • It is not uncommon for methamphetamine addicted individuals to display compulsive action, such as cleaning and grooming or sorting and disassembling objects.
  • Research indicates that short-term and outpatient drug rehab offers little more than drug education for individuals struggling with long-term addiction.
  • The excessive release of dopamine and stimulation of the brain and central nervous system's natural reward system as a result of opiate use is what leads to addiction.
