Drugs have been abused since perhaps drugs have been around. Abuse leads to addiction, and addiction leads to so many problems, physically and mentally.<\/p>\n
In the mind of the addict, he hopes to resolve problems with drugs.<\/strong><\/em> He thinks that his fears, anxiety, sadness and other problems shall go away if he takes in drugs. But the reality is that problems actually increase due to drug addiction and as the problems escalate, so does the addiction. It is a downward spiral, with the addict out of control.<\/p>\n Every time, the drug wears off, the addict feels uncomfortable<\/em>. His mind and body are in \u2018withdrawal\u2019 \u2013 not getting the stuff it is now used to for \u2018normal<\/strong>\u2019 functioning. The only way the addict knows to avoid this acutely uncomfortable feeling is to again take in drugs. The horrible cycle relentlessly repeats itself.<\/p>\n Drug abuse takes a horrible toll on the addict. Whether it is marijuana, prescription drugs, heroin, cocaine, meth, LSD \u2013 or even alcohol, which is a drug \u2013 begins to have increasingly adverse impact on all areas of the addict\u2019s life. His physical condition deteriorates, his emotional state becomes highly volatile, his relationships get damaged, his career or schooling gets disrupted, his mental balance is upset, his ethical and value system get eroded. He get obsessed with his drugs \u2013 how to get it, how to hide it, how to control it.<\/p>\n Treatment for drug addiction works. However, recovery from drug abuse is a difficult and sometimes painful process. The addict needs to focus on all affected areas \u2013 the physical, mental, emotional, social and spiritual areas. It needs a complete overhaul of his \u2018personality\u2019 \u2013 the way he thinks, his behaviour patterns, emotional management, rebuilding relationships and building his spiritual side.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There is no doubt, the addict needs external help.
