Facts

  • Antidepressant withdrawal symptoms and their widespread recurrence, even when individuals step down their dose very gradually, is caused by the receptors in the serotonin system experiencing the drop in serotonin to pre-drug levels as starvation.
  • Research has shown that psychosocial factors, antisocial personality disorder and alcohol dependence can play a role in long-term marijuana use.
  • Methadone used in opiate maintenance therapy was originally developed to help obliterate withdrawal symptoms and support a healthy lifestyle. However, the effects of withdrawal far exceed that of heroin which causes the individual to become addicted to it instead.
  • OxyContin is a central nervous system depressant, meaning it acts on the central nervous system to create pain relief.

As a parent or guardian the thought of enrolling your child into a drug rehabilitation program is often an overwhelming task. Sadly, 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 a traditional drug rehab. Many specialized and age appropriate drug addiction treatment centers have been created to focus on adolescents and their specific needs pertaining to drug addiction rehabilitation. Substance abuse professionals who are skilled in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your adolescent child and guide them through their recovery process.
