Facts

  • Many Ecstasy users have reported that the drug can provoke such a profound experience that it is not uncommon for addicted individuals to actively seek out and consume the drug regardless of the negative consequences.
  • Most past year illicit drug initiates in 2010 stated that their first drug was marijuana (61.8 percent).
  • Initiation into experimental marijuana use during adolescence is often brought on by poor relations with parents, depression symptoms, and exposure to drug-using peers and accessibility of drugs.
  • The excessive release of dopamine and stimulation of the brain and central nervous system's natural reward system as a result of opiate use is what leads to addiction.

Watchung, New Jersey - Methadone Detoxification

Methadone detoxification can be a very uncomfortable and difficult experience. Symptoms usually begin between twenty-four and forty-eight hours after the user's last dose of methadone. Common symptoms include: stomach cramps, sweating, nausea, tremors, extreme opiate cravings, irritability, sneezing, chills, vomiting, anxiety, paranoia, fuzzy-headedness, clinical depression and hallucinations. Additionally, these unpleasant methadone withdrawal symptoms tend to continue much longer than heroin withdrawal symptoms. Depending on the dose of methadone and how long the person has been using methadone, the symptoms can last for several weeks to several months. Professionals in the field of methadone detoxification typically advise the gradual decrease of the drug over a period of time instead of stopping all at once.
