  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • As of 2003 it was estimated that 4% of high school seniors and 2.5% of junior high school students said they had tried crack at least once.
  • The risk of a drug overdose is always greater when using illicit street drugs, because the user can never be sure how strong the drug is that they are taking; ultimately, this can lead to serious, or even fatal consequences.
  • At college campuses across the United States, students reported that the number one reason that they did not immediately call for medical assistance in the case of a drug or alcohol overdose, was due to the fear of getting the person or themselves in trouble with parents or school officials.
  • A methamphetamine high is much prolonged than a cocaine high, yet the cost is much the same which is why it is sometimes referred to as the "poor mans cocaine."
  • Hashish users who use the drug in large quantities can experience exacerbation of pre-existing cardiovascular disease, as cannabis use significantly raises the heart rate.

Native American or Alaska Native Languages

Native Americans and Alaska Natives have much higher rates of substance abuse and addiction than other ethnicities, a situation which must be addressed for these cultures to survive. In fact, Native American and Alaska youth have some of the highest rates of alcohol and drug abuse in the country. While the reasons may vary from person to person, most of the reasons for the high rates of abuse among Native American and Alaska natives are cultural ones. The most obvious obstacles to treating Native Americans and Alaska Natives for substance abuse are culture differences and language. This is why it is crucial that Native Americans and Alaska Natives receive substance abuse treatment in a drug rehab program that is specifically catered to this ethnic group, but most importantly in one that takes into the account the need to provide treatment in their language.
