Facts

  • The practice of concealing cocaine or other drugs inside one's body (either by swallowing or inserting the drug) to avoid police or border authority detection is a smuggling attempt known as body packing.
  • Withdrawal symptoms associated with the use of crystal meth include disorientation, confusion, apathy, irritability, itching, and depression that may be so severe that suicide occurs.
  • Younger members of the military which have been exposed to combat are at significantly greater risk of drinking alcohol on a binge basis than older service members.
  • Medically assisted drug detoxification is only the first step of drug rehab, and in and of itself does not treat drug abuse by itself.

Adolescents - Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment facility is often an overwhelming task. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional help in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug rehab. Many specialized and age appropriate drug addiction treatment centers have been created to focus on adolescents and their specific requirements pertaining to substance abuse recovery. Substance abuse professionals who are skilled in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your loved one and guide them through their recovery process.
