Facts
- Students who use Adderall non-medically also commonly take central nervous system depressants such as pain relievers or tranquilizers, which puts them at even higher risk of dependence or abuse, to counteract the stimulant effects of the drug.
- The abuse of prescription drugs such as OxyContin is responsible for a great deal of health care fraud, such as corrupt physicians writing prescriptions for OxyContin for nonexistent injuries. The patient in this circumstance will often use a portion of the prescribed pills and then sell the rest for a substantial profit.
- Since first being marketed in 1996, OxyContin became a 1.2 billion dollar industry by 2003.
- Studies indicate that women start to have alcohol-related problems at lower drinking levels than men do, partly because women weigh less than men.
GET HELP LOCATING A DRUG TREATMENT PROGRAM
Gays and lesbians who are having problems with drugs and alcohol have the option of going to a drug rehabilitation facility that is specifically intended for them. Choosing to attend one of these programs is a great first step towards recovery. While in treatment recovering addicts not only address their issues with drugs and/or alcohol but also handle other emotional and personal problems they are having difficulties with. Gays and Lesbians in treatment take a closer look at how their destructive behavior was a result of inner feelings left unresolved. Counseling and/or therapy helps in resolving issues with shame, Isolation, discomfort in one's own skin, feelings of rejection, etc. Once rehabilitation is complete they will be able to feel more secure about who they are and be able to live happily without the desire to use drugs.
