Facts

  • Prescription central nervous system depressants slow down brain function, and if combined with other medications that cause drowsiness or with alcohol, heart rate and respiration can slow down dangerously.
  • Individuals who are addicted to heroin will endure many of the withdrawal symptoms to reduce their tolerance for the drug, only so they can once again experience the rush.
  • Women are unable to metabolize alcohol as efficiently as men because they have less of a liver enzyme (dehydrogenase) that converts alcohol into an inactive substance.
  • Valium is in a class of drugs known as benzodiazepines, and is used to treat anxiety, insomnia, and symptoms of acute alcohol withdrawal.

Mountain City - DUI/DWI Offenders

Drinking and driving, or driving while under the influence are severe offenses not to be taken lightly. While each state has its own way of dealing with DUI/DWI offenders, there are some generalities that can be expected. Depending on the severity of the driver's intoxication and how strict the state laws are, they may have to serve time in jail for their offense. Once this is completed they will likely have additional retribution to do in order to drive a vehicle again. Many states require the person to undergo counseling and/or therapy to help in their recovery process. Typically these counseling sessions are held in a group setting by either an addiction recovery professional or a member of Alcoholics Anonymous. The state will define a set number of therapy hours that the DUI/DWI offender will need to attend.
