Facts

  • The first body of research regarding LSD sought to find the therapeutic potential of the "psychedelic" experience in relation to the treatment of chronic alcoholism and mental illness.
  • When Coca was first introduced the alkaloid cocaine was isolated, and it was used in medicine for its medicinal effects on depression, alcohol and morphine addiction, fatigue, and as a local anesthetic. The result was addiction and dependency to cocaine and its use in medicine was discontinued.
  • Methamphetamine causes a release of high levels of dopamine into the areas of the brain that have to do with the feeling of pleasure and reward, which is why the drug is so addictive.
  • Some individuals who use crack cocaine die after taking a very small amount because of an increased sensitization.

Women - Leighton

Drug rehab programs for women are a very good way for female substance abusers to deal with their addiction issues in an all-female environment. There are many advantages to attending a drug or alcohol rehab facility for women including the fact that such programs cater to issues specific to their female clients. While recovering from addiction in an all women rehab facility the client will also deal with personal issues such as problems with their husbands, boyfriends and/or men in general. Most women struggling with drug or alcohol addiction also struggle with physical or sexual abuse from their past. Dealing with these sensitive issues while in rehab will give the recovering woman the capacity to confront her problems in a setting that is free of judgment and negativity.
