Effects of drug addiction on our social fabric: Possible remedies discussed

Effects of drug addiction on our social fabric are real and heartening. It may not matter how the drug is administered into the body, the consequences remain the same.

The already delicate nature of our social fabric is consistently receiving undue pressure from the illicit use of drugs and the pain is growing day by day. Experts from AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center have time and again reported that the problem of addiction is not only a problem of the individual addict. And therefore besides the known health damage effects, alcohol addiction and drug addiction have an extremely negative social aspect. And that is why we want to focus our discussion on the effects of drug addiction on our social fabric with a view of finding lasting solutions to this enormous problem. To start us off doctor Akoury a veteran expert in addiction confirms that the problem of substance abuse has serious negative impact on such aspects of social life including:

Marriage and interpersonal relationships
Extended family relationships
Education and development
Professional activities and employment
Financial issues and growth
Law-abiding and order in the society

The list above is a mirror of what areas of our social health that is greatly affected by the indulgence in drugs and alcohol abuse. Let us take some time to analyze what is likely to happen in these categories of our social life.

Effects of drug addiction on our social fabric: Marriage and interpersonal relationship

Marriage is very sensitive in every community and any negative effect to it has its way of spilling out to the community. Drug addiction is one way through which this can take place and that is why it is very imperative that we all make all the necessary efforts to protect our marriages. Take for example if one or both partners in marriage are struggling with alcohol and drug abuse there is no doubt that this will impact negatively to this marriage. The introduction of misuse of drugs in marriages will come with very devastating changes like for instance, if your partner was previously a very committed and dedicated to his or her marriage or was easy going, kind, supportive person drugs is likely to change all these good characters into agony, secretive, cruel, arrogant, explosive egoist prone to frequent mood swings from deep apathy to inexplicable joy and aggressiveness thereby distorting the once known harmony in the family.

For the purpose of good health and peace, doctor Dalal Akoury suggest that this can be corrected by making some positive adjustments and compromises where is necessary. Consistent communication with an addict is incredibly hard not only to strangers, but also to close relatives, spouses. The situation becomes even more complicated when children are involved because for children to see either or both of their parents under constant influence of drugs can be extremely traumatizing and devastating for their tender ages. The significance of this will no doubt leave negative imprint on the formation of their future psyche.

Besides that it is very common that drug addicts will always spend a lot and in most cases extravagantly in financing their habits. The result of this is that the family will start seeing some financial problems which may have not been there before the problem of addiction came in and as time lapses, this problem becomes apparent. Before you know it the problem escalates and multiplies into constant financial problems, numerous debts, problems with employment by the freak behavior with frequent violent outburst and paranoia, unwillingness to work, repeated problems with the law – and you will get the ready recipe for almost inevitable divorce. It is very sad that all these changes in personality occur to people who are not the aggressive psychopaths or complete egoists by their nature, but who become ones as a result of drug and alcohol addiction. At this point drugs or alcohol is all they can see, think and do because it has become the meaning and part of their life. Everything else has little importance, or generally regarded as an obstacle to achieving their main goal which is the acquisition of drugs or alcohol.

Effects of drug addiction on our social fabric: Alcohol and drug abuse affects everyone in the family

The families of the victims of drug abuse, especially children, are ashamed of their behavior. They are constantly worried about what their neighbors and friends may think about them and in many cases they don’t know how to solve the situation. Initially in the introduction part of addiction, the drug addict’s relatives surround one with care, trying to show him their love, support, trying to enable him to recognize the problem, the need for treatment and make him do the first step to recovery. However, quite often after making several unsuccessful attempts to persuade them to enroll into a recovery program to no avail, many at time this support fades off and the people they need the most gives up on them and sometimes it can come to the extreme where the victim is expel from the family. Nonetheless doctor Akoury says that that even though in some few selected instances members of the family may chose isolation, professionally isolation doesn’t solve the problem. According to her family support deprivation will leave the addict alone to face his addiction and thus makes the vicious circle closed and the truth is that this is a collective responsibility and getting out of this hell without the help, support and love from the family is impossible.

Effects of drug addiction on our social fabric: Education and employment effects

The prevalence of drug addiction is no doubt escalating to the amazement of many. What is even worrying the most is that the age bracket of those young people getting into drugs is ever increasing? Unless something is done drastically management of addiction may become very difficult. Socially education is very basic and without it there is no hope for a better society tomorrow. Therefore, when discussing the subject addiction in relation to education and employment our young ones come to the fore front. Like for instance a teenager or a young adult with his unformed psyche and immature volitional mechanisms, it will be very difficult to resist the temptation to indulge into smoking, drinking alcohol or to taking drugs. The desire to be part of the “circle”, to try the forbidden fruit, “to be like an adult” can quickly lead to addiction.

As a parent you may not be aware of the signs of addiction more so when you have done your part well in bringing up the children. But it is very important that you have these facts together. Antisocial or irrational behavior, unexplained poor school or college attendance, larceny reports, as well as, poor performance, reduced concentration, lack of motivation for continuing education can be some of the signs of using the drugs. Remember that in many instances expulsion from school, college, university is always as a result of the abuse of substances so whenever this happen, be very watchful and take action immediately should you notice any sign of drug abuse. Finally take note that drugs destroy professional skills. Therefore to protect your investment in your children’s education schedule for an appointment with doctor Dalal Akoury today to get further insights on the best possible ways to go about the emergence of drug addiction in our children today.

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction: The three significant stages of drug addiction

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction is very key to unlocking the social problem of drug abuse in our societies

If somebody was to tell you that you are addicted to certain drug would you agree with him? And if you would what would be your facts in other words how do you know that you are addicted to drugs? These are some of the questions we want to address even as we focus on our topic of the day “understanding the three stages of drug addiction”. From the experts and psychologist point of view drug addiction is a disease characterized by both physical and psychological health impairments. It can also be defined as a pattern of substance use leading to significant impairment in physical and mental functioning. In whichever way you look at it there will be some level of physical and psychological impairment in the process a factor which doctor Dalal Akoury concurs that is the most significant problem in addiction. For our understanding of the problem, doctor Dalal Akoury is going to share with us the three stages of drug addiction as follows:

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction: The first stage of drug addiction

At the introduction levels of addiction the psychological dependence on the drugs (stage of Preoccupation or Anticipation), is characterized by the following symptoms:

The constant craving for the drug – An overwhelming desire to use the drug of choice to relieve the state of psycho-emotional stress preoccupies the user despite the other responsibilities and events in his/her life.

The altered psyche – Nervousness, frequent mood swings, depression, irritability, agitation, aggressiveness, difficulty with concentration are the common signs of progressively developing addiction.

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction: Second stage and symptoms of drug addiction

Is the stage of intoxication? – This stage is characterized by the further worsening the above mentioned symptoms of drug addiction and appearing the new ones

The growing tolerance – The longer the drugs are introduced into the body the larger amounts of drugs are necessary to continue experiencing the same euphoric effects. The increased doses of the drug (binging) push the effects of intoxication to a dangerous level.

The emergence of withdrawal syndrome – Uncomfortable, very disruptive, physical and mental condition that happen when the body is sharply deprived of the psychoactive substances that it is used to getting. The clinical picture of withdrawal syndrome varies and mostly depends on the type of the using substance. The most common symptoms of drug addiction and opioid withdrawal include the constant, deep, exhausting pain in muscles and bones all over the body, sensation of almost unbearable inner cold, frequent cold-and-hot flashes, shivering, sneezing, watery eyes, sweating, cramps in stomach area, lack of appetite, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, restless legs, increased nervousness and irritability, sleep disorders, insomnia, and many more.

The negative and persistent changes in personality – It will interest you to note that at this stage there will be increased emotional sensitivity, explosiveness, frequent mood swings, narrowing of vital interests, aggressiveness, apathy, impaired memory and intelligence, tendency to depression, dishonesty, permanent conflicts at work and home, problems with the law.

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction: Drug dependence symptoms in third stage

Third stage of drug dependence is the stage of Physical, Mental and Social Degradation.

Presence of irreversible pathological changes in the internal organs and systems of the body (liver failure due to toxicity and viral hepatitis, toxic encephalopathy, immune system disorders, AIDS, etc.).
Development of dementia and other drug related mental disorders. The chronic use of certain drugs
Currently available evidence indicates that heavy, long-term drug consumption is likely to have a negative impact on cognitive function. Longer-term smoking of marijuana is associated with increased risk of intellectual deterioration and possibly schizophrenia and dementia.
The chronic use of benzodiazepines and psycho-stimulants also leads to increased risk of cognitive impairment. For example, 3,4 methylenedioxymethamphetamine, (MDMA, commonly known as ecstasy), produces the long-term deficit in serotonin function in the brain, resulting in mental disorders such as depression and anxiety.
Chronic drug abuse by adolescents during formative years is a particular concern because it interferes with normal socialization and cognitive development and thus frequently contributes to the development of mental disorders.
Social degradation by drug dependence: Like for instance the loss of marriage, family; spoiled interpersonal relationships; degradation in professional skills and activities and as a result the problems with employment and financial issues; problems with law-abiding.

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction: Consequences and effects of drug addiction and alcoholism

Consequences and effects of drug addiction and alcoholism have both medical and social effects.

Health effects of drug addiction and alcohol abuse – The most obvious negative effects of drug addiction or alcohol abuse is deterioration in physical and mental state of an addict.

Understanding the three stages of drug addiction: Effects of drug abuse on the brain

It will interest you to note that different type of drugs causes particular and quite specific effects of chronic drug intoxication:

Effects of drug abuse on the brain in case of untreated drug and alcohol abuse is irreversible condition that leads to progressive deterioration of personality. Degradation begins with memory loss, inability to concentrate and further shows up in reduced physical and mental activity, in a tendency to fruitless fantasies, excessive irritability and sleep disorders. The normal human emotions, desires, interests, work skills gradually fade and meaning of life gets limited to searching for drugs. Untreated addiction undoubtedly ends up in irreversible dementia.

Mental disorders in case of a drug abuse are varied and accompany all its forms. The most common characteristic of mental disorder is psychosis, which may occur either shortly after using the drug or during the withdrawal. Acute psychosis is characterized by a pronounce anxiety, kind of panic attack, paranoia, consciousness disorders up to the visual, auditory and tactile hallucinations and delusions. Often such states result in committing suicide. Use of improvised and counterfeit drugs presents particular danger to life and health of a drug addict. Chronic drug users look physically exhausted. They have distinctive appearance: pallor, poor skin elasticity, feverish bright eyes, dry nails, hair loss, they are underweight. Addicts look much older than their physiological age. All male drug addicts sooner or later develop impotence, as well as female addicts develop frigidity. Negatively affected by drugs and alcohol germ cells often result in the birth of weak and sick children with different congenital defects. Pregnancy in case of active drug use runs hard, with complications and high chances of miscarriage and preterm birth. After birth such children are growing poorly, lagging behind in their physical and mental development. They often get sick. Children whose mothers were on drugs during pregnancy are already born addicted to drugs with all ensuing consequences.

Finally take note that all drugs without any exception destroy the brain in the first place and you need not to get to the second one so long as you are using a drug the first one is sufficient. Doctor Akoury concludes that even if you smoke marijuana which is considered the weakest of all drugs occasionally, you are already initiating the irreversible effects of drug abuse on the brain which manifest in weakening attention, reduced memory capacity, in forming the typical for the drug addicts thinking and behavior patterns, which are very well shown in numerous drug addicts jokes and “freaky films” with their peculiar flat sense of humor. The stronger the drug the worse their effects therefore for the purpose of your good health understanding the three stages of drug addiction is very important. And with that done if you are suffering from any form of addiction, you now have an opportunity to correct it by scheduling for an appointment with doctor Dalal Akoury today for the commencement of your recovery process today.

Correcting the brain damage from drug abuse

Correcting the brain damage from drug abuse: The generator of pathological activity

Correcting the brain damage from drug abuse must be every ones priority if we have to defeat addiction and its consequences

Did you know that drugs are the major cause of the death of the brain cells? The brain is one of the most sensitive organs in any human body where everything starts and ends. Death is always registered the moment ones brain stops functioning. Therefore we all have a duty to keep the good health we have by correcting the brain damages from drug abuse and doctor Dalal Akoury is going to take us through the discussion to unlock some of the sensitive things that we must do to keep the proper functionality of the brain. According to the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center under the able leadership of doctor Dalal Akoury, this could be the worst damage they cause to the brain. And remember that the degree of the brain damage from drug abuse is always defined by the prognosis of recovery. Sometimes unfavorable changes in the brain of a drug addict are so much overwhelming that they are not even able to realize the problem let alone the need for treatment. And even if they are, the deformed psyche, expressed in loss of willpower, doesn’t allow them to complete the treatment and refrain from using the drugs. Nonetheless such situations often come to the extreme cases. Besides that under normal circumstances addiction often creates a center of addiction in the brain, or so-called a generator of pathological activity for drug craving.

To illustrate this, let us take an example of a condition we are all familiar with that of epilepsy. This disease is characterized by periodically recurrent seizure syndrome and when a small portion of the brain cells (it can be quite small in size), figuratively speaking, “going crazy”. From time to time they reach the level of excitation which covers the whole brain. As a result, a person loses consciousness, falls down, the total muscle spasms make him convulse. When he comes regains his consciousness, he doesn’t remember what happened to him. Medically these “haywire” cells are called the generator of pathological activity. Now the connection is that about the same generator is formed in case of a drug addiction. However in this case the generator is that of attraction to drugs, self-excitation of which with different periodicity may also cover the entire brain and cause an uncontrollable, overpowering desire to take drugs thereafter. The activity of the generator leads to a constant, obsessive thoughts about drugs. Without treatment, this generator can persist for years, even if the person does not use the drugs during that time. Along with the formation of the generator of attraction to drugs, there is another type of brain damage from drug abuse, to the nervous system of a drug addict.

Another reason why correcting the brain damage from drug abuse is necessary is because the regular drug poisoning leads to severe changes in metabolism in the cells of the nervous system and especially in brain cells. These cells contain neurotransmitters which are the active substances whose presence in the inter-neuron synapses provides the transmission of electrical impulses to effectuate the functions of all kinds of nervous activities, including the higher nervous activity of a man’s mind, emotions, feelings, willpower, and so on. Doctor Akoury reiterates that the constant presence of the outer psycho active chemical substances badly affects the processes of neuro-transmission in the brain. And remember that the altered brain reactivity will reflects in the changes of well-being and behavior pattern of an addict. When this happens he becomes lethargic, listless, emotionally limited. Gradually he will begin to lose interest in life, his cognitive abilities dwindle. Against this background, frequent outbreaks of anger and irritability become regular.

It’s fair to say, that shortly after the “fix”, the deficit of neurotransmitters in an addict’s brain temporarily shifts back to “normal”, and the victim feels better for a while. However, with each subsequent dose of narcotic, the further infringements in neuro transmitter systems of the brain ultimately become more and more profound.

Correcting the brain damage from drug abuse: Drug withdrawal

During the “withdrawal” the most unpleasant sensations are connected with an abrupt plummet of content of neurotransmitters in the brain. For instance, the dopamine content due to severe lack of transmitters can’t be utilized in time and may exceed the normal level few times. The excessive amount of dopamine is a real poison to the brain.

Drug withdrawal (especially opiate withdrawal) physically and mentally is a very disruptive condition. It may last from few days to a few weeks. You can get more information about opiate (Heroin, Methadone) withdrawal by scheduling for an appointment with doctor Dalal Akoury today and she will be more than willing to help you find answers to all your questions today.

It is further important to note that during withdrawal some time will lapse and within a few days the level of neurotransmitters will gradually returns to normal even though this may not be completely done, but all the same the symptoms of drug withdrawal subsides. Besides that another danger will come in handy waiting for the patient. This is commonly known as “dry withdrawal”. After some time, when seemingly all is over, sometimes without any reason, but mostly after the stress, the balance of neurotransmitters breaks down again. At this point the patient starts re-experiencing some mental discomfort, nervousness, sleep disorders, hot-and-cold flashes and aggravated attraction to drugs.

Drug addiction, like many other chronic diseases, is characterized by fluctuating course, with alternate “ups and downs”. Most of the failures happen exactly on the peaks of these “ups”. That is why all drugs have the toxic effects and damages the body’s cells. This damage causes some element of pain in an individual and to fight this pain the victim will have to take more drugs further causing addiction to that substance and the situation to becomes a vicious circle: that is to say, the higher dose of drugs the more pain they cause, the more pain the more need to take the higher dose. As a result, the euphoric effect of the drugs, which was so attractive at the beginning, quickly disappears and leaves an addict to continue taking the drug just to avoid the pain and let him somehow to function “normally”.

Finally from the discussion we have seen that drug addiction is a very complex disease, which is fixed in many levels of the organism. Simple and quick methods, such as coding or isolated psychotherapy are absolutely inactive. To this doctor Akoury says that professionally drug addiction requires a serious multi-stage treatment at all levels and that will be very helpful in correcting the brain damage from drug abuse effectively.

The necessity of addiction treatment in time

The necessity of addiction treatment in time: Drug addiction is a curable disease

The necessity of addiction treatment in time is not an option but a must owing to the complications that may come with it if treatment is not done in time.

I want to bring to you the message of hope particularly to those who may be losing hope in their struggle with addiction. We understand the difficulties you and your family are going through in your struggle with the condition. It also concerns us as professionals from AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center. This is a medical facility that was founded by one of the veteran addiction expert doctor Dalal Akoury with the primary objective of bringing hope to all addiction victims like you. Because of our great concern, we want to assure you that somebody cares and you are not alone. The good news about this problem is that it is curable meaning that you can have you life back and live it to the fullest. However for this to take effect it is important that we share with you the necessity of addiction treatment in time. Remember that just like all other health conditions, prevention would be the best so that we don’t have to get to the treatment phase. Nonetheless, because this is already with us professional treatment becomes necessary. It will therefore interest you to note that, the formation of this facility was guided by the good will doctor Dalal Akoury is having in making her contribution towards eliminating this problem from your life and that of your family. Doctor Akoury practice focuses on personalized medicine through healthy lifestyle choices that deal with primary prevention and underlying causes instead of patching up symptoms. Therefore if this introduction suits your situation, then you are at the right place and calling doctor Akoury for an appointment should be the first thing to do so that she can enroll you to the right addiction recovery program.

Now back to our topic of discussion “the necessity of addiction treatment in time, it is quite unfortunate that despite this condition being curable many people still don’t come out for help and they chose to suffer in silence. Yet some still argue that the addiction treatment does not help and that it is only the patient’s own strong will that can solve the problem of addiction. This is what I will call a terrible mistake. It is important to note that the journey for treatment of addiction is along one. Like for instance, in the first 3-5 years of addiction victims are generally inclined to deny the existence of any problem. Then after this the next phase of the process is delaying and searching for the short cuts and cheapest treatment, and then the statement that nothing helped them is followed. With all these time wasting the intensity of addiction increases meaning that there will be need of a lot of motivation on the part of loved ones for this process to be a success. Doctor Akoury says that even though motivation is necessary, it is meaningless to keep postponing treatment until the moment when motivation appears, when a person’s physical and emotional will power have been completely worn out.

The usual argument and blame game where victims defend themselves by using cases where some people’s addiction treatment were unsuccessful to declare that addiction is incurable disease is pure manipulation and shifting of responsibility on parents, doctors, government, aliens and other such institutions and individuals. The true position is that people who have recovered from their addiction will always try as soon as possible to forget the period of their lives which was associated with drugs. They often do so because they are ashamed and sorry for many mistakes they made. People just don’t want to recall that time. For man of sense it is stupid to walk around and boast to everybody that he was cured. On contrary, a drug addict with a peculiar tendency to change reasonable behavior for empty rhetoric will be arguing that treatment doesn’t help, because two or three of ten undergoing treatment failed. Therefore, the negative feedback on different drug forums and in the streets always prevails yet this is not always the case. If you want to be helped, speak to the experts and don’t listen to street garters. Your health is very important for you to take wrong information from quakes and believe them.

The necessity of addiction treatment in time: Drug addiction is a serious disease not a bad habit

Did you know that at this point of time there are still very many people who still believe that addiction is all about weak character? It is quite unfortunate that after many years of communicating with the addicts and their relatives we could still realized the following:

Despite the fact that nowadays, when information about addiction available to everybody, most of the people, oddly enough, know little about drug addiction as a disease and often underestimate its seriousness and destructiveness to the body. And in this regard, they just don’t realize how deep, diverse and the same time complex must be the treatment. Most people believe that drug addiction is rather a bad habit than an illness. But in fact, this is a very serious disease that affects all body systems – from the higher nervous activity to intracellular metabolism. That is why addiction must be considered as one of the most intractable diseases. Everyone knows that our organism is endowed with protective systems which protect us from germs, viruses and other disease-causing factors. To such protective systems can be attributed a system that produces ingenious “hormones of pleasure” – endorphins and enkephalins. The purpose of which is to protect the body from such harmful factors as stress, pain, shock. For instance, in case of injury or disease the endorphins protect the whole body and especially the nervous system from excessive pain, which in its turn may be very detrimental by itself. Sufficient level of endorphins makes a person feel good, optimistic, productive, and active during the day and provides good quality sleep during a night.

The necessity of addiction treatment in time: Drug addiction and endorphins

When we talk about endorphins we refer to any group of hormones secreted within the brain and nervous system which are tasked with a number of physiological functions. Ordinarily they are peptides that activate the body’s opiate receptors, causing an analgesic effect. Now having got that explanation, it is important to note that the external narcotics will destroy the ingenious narcotic system and thus leave the individual without its protection. It therefore means that foreign drugs displace the body’s own endorphins and gradually become an essential element of biochemical processes in nervous system. In this case the person is forced to use the drugs to maintain his health condition in a “normal” state. The nature of endorphin-enkefhalin system is such that it is not able for self-recovery. It means that without proper repair of this marred by drugs system, to defeat craving for drugs is impossible. A person with impaired endorphin system is vulnerable to stress, to situations where even the slightest provocation can cause him to resort to drugs again. We will continue the discussion of this hormone in our next article but in the meantime, treatment of addiction must be done in good time if any meaningful result is to be realized. Therefore if addiction is causing you sleepless nights, reach out for help from the experts at AWAREmed Health and Wellness Resource Center today.

The plague of addiction in modern society

The plague of addiction in modern society: Drug abuse help

The plague of addiction in modern society is very real and burring our heads to the sand will not help us in dealing with the problem. We must be bold enough to deal with addiction expeditiously.

At the mention of this topic “the plague of addiction in modern society” your mind switches to alcohol and drug abuse. This is because of the prevailing circumstances that surround the endless use of drugs. If you take a walk along some of our known streets you will agree with what we have in the statistics that drugs have become a plague of modern society. The suffering of both young and old people is devastatingly unbearable. No one is safe from addiction and there are no supper power states, developed or developing states when it comes to drug addiction. Everyone and every state is equally a victim of substance abuse. Doctor Dalal Akoury a well-respected veteran addiction expert says that the problem of drug addiction has become so widespread that even the stars and who is who in our societies are sitting on opiates. Ideally drug abuse is getting common not only among losers and criminals but also even with the very innocent fetus in the womb.

The power of addiction has no respect to status and that is why even very successful professionals including engineers, doctors and employees of highly reputable organizations are increasingly becoming victims of drug abuse. And besides this problem has no boundaries nowonder individuals, organizations and states are also feeling the effects. Like for instance in Russia, at one time a fierce battle against drugs resulted in emergence of some kind of unbelievably monstrous drugs. Reduced supply of Afghan heroin resulted in changes on the Russian drug market. Keif (or High) now is being extracted from anti-cough tablets, eye drops, anti-depressants. Prepared from legal components this sinister illegal mixture obtains properties of heroin but is more powerful and cheaper than heroin.

When a region is hit by addiction, the trail of destructions left behind can be very devastating. Just not long ago Western Europe was hit by “spice” the smoking blend of exotic herbs, having powerful euphoric and hallucinogenic effects. As a new product the teens tasted and evaluated the new product much faster than services responsible for PAS (Psycho Active Substances) traffic control. And just in less than two years of free sale, the level of intoxication psychoses, injuries, suicides and suicide attempts caused by «spice” has grown up by 7 times. That is how dangerous drugs can be if solutions are not sought for immediately. It is therefore very important that if you are struggling with any form of addiction, then calling doctor Dalal Akoury today for a consultative meeting would be the starting point. This way she will be able to evaluate your individual situations and put you on the right and effective treatment program and by the end of that treatment schedule, your life will never be the same again. You will have your life back only that this time it will be full of productivity, comfort and enjoyment for a very long time.

Simple explanations about stem cell addiction therapy: Global heroin abuse

It is very frustrating that nearly every ware you a cross our different states people are really suffering from the effects of substitution therapy for heroin. Used in harm reduction programs such opioids as Methadone, Substitol have become free narcotics for many addicts. Violating the rules of treatment, the patients elicit higher doses, use drugs prescribed for oral administration intravenously, sometime often exchanging them for heroin. Many addicts who are looking on methadone or Substitol therapy as a way to get narcotics free, frequently find themselves cruelly deceived afterward when they are faced with withdrawal from Methadone, which instead of usual 5-7 days lasts almost a month and is much more harder than withdrawal from heroin.

And most surprisingly is that the miss use of heroin is getting even to the younger people in our societies. Weed, hashish as they are commonly known are among the drugs that adolescents kids no longer considered as dangerous and forbidden substances. And in fact it is becoming a custom that every weekend a lot of time is spent at the various club under influence has become a common pastime. As a consequence, often in the newspapers you can see the obituaries of young people whose death, as a rule, is a result of drug abuse. All this brings to mind reports from the front lines about fighting, captured or liberated territory, the number of dead.

Simple explanations about stem cell addiction therapy: Drug addiction help

With all these frustration under the influence of addiction one would not be crucified to ask that is there a perfect weapon that would have stopped this war? In any arms race the appearance of effective weapon on one side makes the opposite side quickly response by finding no less effective countermeasure. The emergence of naltrexone, which effectively blocks heroin, unfortunately didn’t stop using heroin, just made the process of drug using more difficult. Methadone therapy by and large has become the impetus for the era of “medical drug”.

Increasingly the large pharmaceutical companies make statements that vaccine against drugs will be created and will soon be available in the market. It has recently become known that only the United States National Institute of Drug Abuse by itself simultaneously is elaborating 13 medications which are supposed to win drug addiction to methamphetamine and cocaine. According to a British pharmaceutical company “Zenon” to released anti-cocaine vaccine in about two tears ago binding the molecules of cocaine with blood proteins and on account of enlarged molecular size prevents fixed cocaine going from blood stream to brain receptors.

Launched in Russia experiments with xenon gas as a promising tool of anesthesia and neuro-protection for patients with brain injuries and anoxemia brain damage led to the startling results. Addicts, who after several months of conventional treatment still persisted maniacal desire for methamphetamine, already after 5-7 sessions with this gas treatment were nicely surprised to state that their head is “clear from all follies.” Latter in 2009 Xenon was approved for use to relieve craving for drugs in drug addiction treatment protocols. That is all in a bid to correct the plague of addiction in modern society. Finally even though a lot is being done in bringing this problem of addiction to manageable levels, it does not give us room to be irresponsible with our choice of lifestyle. Defeating drug addiction is our responsibility no matter how little part you play. Therefore I want to encourage you never to relent in your quest to overcome the frustrations of addiction. Remember to always be in constant consultation with your healthcare provider so that they can point out for you the signs in good time for speedy action to be taken before it is too late.
