  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Overdose deaths can be intentional or unintentional, and they can result from both licit and illicit drug abuse. Drugs commonly implicated in overdose deaths are alcohol, psychoactive medications, analgesics, illicit drugs such as cocaine and heroin, and multiple drugs taken concomitantly.
  • Chronic marijuana users who experience withdrawal symptoms due to sudden cessation of use often begin smoking the drug again to reduce symptoms instead of searching for treatment options.
  • Hashish users who use the drug in large quantities may experience fluctuating emotions, fragmentary thoughts, paranoia, panic attacks, hallucinations and feelings of unreality.
  • Hashish can leave an user in a "couchlock" state, where they become extremely focused on a singular action or topic, sometimes leading to an unproductive state.
  • An estimated one half of car accidents are associated with alcohol abuse.

Detoxification

Detoxification is usually the initial step in getting off drugs. It allows an individual to be in a supervised environment while they go through withdrawal symptoms for drugs and/or alcohol. There are diverse types of detoxification. Theyrange from drug-free to medically supervised. A frequent mistake that quite a few addicts make is to feel that detox is enough to kick their habit. This is almost never 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.
