  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • A marijuana overdose is reported to be extremely rare, even among long term, heavy users of the drug.
  • Individuals who become addicted to methamphetamine often feel that methamphetamine use provides a social network or community for persons who feel like outsiders.
  • During the nineties rates of heroin use rose as heroin on the street became purer. The price stayed the same and more young and middle-class Americans began using the drug.
  • Opiods have been reported to suppress activity in portions of the brain that control breathing; consequently, many individuals who experience a drug overdose from these types of drugs die because of a lack of oxygen reaching the body.
  • A 2009 survey among Americans high school students indicated that 42% drank some amount of alcohol, 24% binge drank, 10% drove after drinking alcohol and 28% rode with a driver who had been drinking alcohol in the past 30 days.

Adolescents (18 and under)

It is an unfortunate fact that many adolescents in the United States become exposed to drugs and alcohol at a very young age, and some even become addicted and dependent to drugs and/or alcohol. For adolescents who do become addicted and dependent to alcohol and drugs, parents must take every step possible to help their child before it is too late. Any indication that drugs or alcohol are in the picture should be addressed immediately, otherwise, addiction will lead down a path of total destruction for the adolescent as well as for the family. There are drug treatment facilities for adolescents available in every state, many of which cater only to adolescents and have treatment professionals on staff that are trained specifically in handling this age range.
