  • Opiate withdrawal symptoms are stronger approximately 24-72 hours after they begin and generally dissipate within 7-10 days.
  • Slang terms for inhalants which are abused are whippets, poppers and snappers.

Sherman, Maine - Adolescents

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment program can be overwhelming and frightening. Sadly, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional treatment in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend a traditional drug rehabilitation center. Many specialized and age appropriate drug treatment programs have been developed to focus on adolescents and their distinct needs pertaining to substance abuse treatment. Substance abuse professionals who are experienced in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your adolescent child and guide them through their recovery process.
