  • Drug Overdose Facts
  • Early repeated use of marijuana during adolescence may cause chronic marijuana use later in life.
  • In the 1950s researchers conducted experiments with LSD for its alleged ability to be able to induce a state of "cosmic consciousness."
  • According to some of the latest research by the Center for Disease Control, there has been a dramatic increase in the number of drug overdose deaths that are related to prescription painkillers throughout the U.S.
  • Drugs that are commonly classified as depressants include opiates, alcohol, and benzodiazepines; a depressant overdose is most often characterized by slow or shallow breathing, blue lips, cold or clammy skin, slow or faint pulse, snoring or gurgling noises and unresponsiveness.
  • Inhalant abuse, specifically abuse of trichloroethylene which can be found in spot removers and degreasers, can cause cirrhosis of the liver and hearing and liver damage.

Men Only

Drug and alcohol rehab centers made solely for men are rising up across the nation. While rehab programs that treat both men and women are still the standard for drug rehabilitation, many facilities are developing programs intended to help a particular target group. These centers are able to focus on what their client's personal needs are in a way that standard programs are not. Although these specialized types of rehab programs are not needed for all recovering addicts, many men are deciding on men-only addiction treatment facilities. This treatment option is excellent for those who feel more comfortable with those of the same sex when sharing private and often difficult issues from the past. Recovering from addiction is a challenging process for every addict and finding comfort among one's peer group is a very good way of getting the support needed to make the process that much more endurable.
