  • Alcohol withdrawal which is considered severe can produce delirium tremens (DTs) which produces profound confusion, hallucinations, and severe autonomic nervous system over-activity.
  • A recent survey indicates that among persons aged 12 or older who used pain relievers non-medically in the past 12 months, over 55% reported that the source of the opiate the most recent time they used was from a friend or relative for free.
  • Drinking two or three alcoholic drinks in a hour can impair judgment, lower inhibitions, and induce mild euphoria.
  • In the 1970s amphetamines became a schedule II drug under the Controlled Substances Act.

Detoxification

Detoxification is normally the initial step in getting off drugs. It makes it possible for a person to be in a supervised setting while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are different types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A common mistake that quite a few addicts make is to assume that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is seldom the case. All detox does is get an individual through the withdrawal when they stop using. It is often recommended that detox be followed up with some type of treatment plan to uncover the root of why an individual was using drugs in the first place.
