  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • A drug overdose can occur when a person accidentally or intentionally consumes more of a drug than their body can sufficiently tolerate.
  • GHB use over an extended period of time will ultimately lead to addiction and withdrawal that includes insomnia, anxiety, increased heart rate and blood pressure, and occasional psychotic thoughts.

For example, if it took an individual 10 hits to become intoxicated, it would take 400,000 hits of marijuana to produce a fatal overdose.
  • Individuals who take hashish may experience distorted perceptions of time and space.

Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the first step in getting off drugs. It enables an individual to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are diverse types of detoxification. Theyvary from drug-free to medically supervised. A frequent mistake that a lot of addicts make is to believe that detox is sufficient to kick their habit. This is seldom the case. All detox does is get somebody through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is at all times recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to discover the root of why a person was using drugs in the first place.
