Drug Rehabs in Nh: Drug Rehabs – the Battle Against Addiction

Drug addiction is undoubtedly one of the great tragedies of our society. Drug abuse is claiming lives by the thousands. For those who do survive drug addiction, there is a never-ending struggle to remain whole.

Drug abuse was once considered the plague of youthful indiscretion. Times have changed, however, and being no respecter of persons, the drug culture has spread its tentacles into all levels of society and every age group.

According to Mayo Clinic statistics, 19.5 million people over the age of 12 use illegal drugs in the United States. The National Institute on Drug Abuse reports that actual costs related to drug abuse in the United States is nearing $ 200 billion annually.

Drug Abuse Treatment Statistics: Choosing a Drug Abuse Treatment Program That Best Suits You

With the growing number of drug abuse cases there is a lot of chaos related to it. In trying to deal with a drug abuse issue people often decide on the solution, most of the time, based on the recommendations and that only enhances the failure rates.

Majority of people who get referred to drug abuse treatment or rehab centers only tend to encounter failures or quit the program half way through. Well, it is imperative to understand what suits others does not necessarily suit you.

Where Can I Put My Mom Into a Free Rehab Program?

Question by Stealth: Where can I put my mom into a free rehab program?
Here’s the full story: My mother is an RN, very knowledgeable with prescription drugs and although she’s never had an addiction with anything drug related, she shows signs of hypochondria, somataform disorder and pretty darn close to Munchhausen syndrome. She recently just had a mental breakdown related to being “reborn” and saying she was “saved.” She was caring for my grandmother at the time who is nearing the end of her life and my family and I know that she can no longer care for her in the state that my mom is in because she is a danger to herself and my grandmother. She was baker acted because of her attack and taken to the hospital. After receiving medical care, they had her evaluated by a psychiatrist who believes that she is now normal. If she returns home, we fear that she may have another breakdown as she has always been anxious and a borderline schizophrenic. I love my mom and I don’t want to institutionalize her because she would probably turn suicidal. My mom is divorced, receives $ 350/week in alimony, is up to her eyeballs in debt (so we would like to have her declare bankruptcy) and she has no insurance. Where do we go from here if they let her out of the hospital without any treatment program? Our [extended] family does not have enough money to send her to any rehab center and the only one I found was a Salvation Army ARC in Jacksonville or Orlando, Fl. She is based in Ocala. Any immediate help is greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

National Institute on Drug Abuse: Drug Abuse

Use of illicit drugs like marijuana, cocaine and heroine and overuse of prescription drugs has been responsible for creating serious medical complications, destroying many family lives and creating problems for schools and communities. Teenagers and young people are particularly prone to excessive drug use and once they succumbed to the lure of drugs, they involve themselves in crime and accidents leading to poor performance in schools and society. It is needless to remind that the law punishes reckless drug users heavily.
