Facts
- When a prescription drug is abused repeatedly the long term effect results in changes in the user's brain causing them to suffer drug cravings just as a person addicted to illicit drugs would.
- Pharmaceutical companies spend more on marketing and promotion of drugs than on research and development - an estimated $15,000 - $20,000 on every doctor with expenditures of $8.3 billion in the United States in 1998.
- In a study of students in Wisconsin and Minnesota, 34 percent of kids diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) said they had been approached to sell or trade their Ritalin or Adderall, two prescription drugs commonly used to treat symptoms of ADHD.
- Among those who said in the 2009 NSDUSH study that they obtained the pain reliever the abused from a friend or relative for free, 80 percent reported that the friend or relative had obtained the drugs from just one doctor.
Transitional housing is a very useful resource for individuals in Eleroy who have graduated a drug treatment program but still require time to completely re-acclimate to regular life and the real world. To someone who has abused drugs and alcohol to self medicate and especially for long term addicts, the world can feel like a formidable place now that one has to get through life without alcohol or drugs. Transitional housing in Eleroy, Illinois supplies a secure setting where individuals who are in this stage of the drug rehabilitation experience can little by little become comfortable with the idea of rebuilding their life without drugs and on their own. While in transitional housing recovering addicts can continue to receive one-on-one and group counseling as needed to help them along, and also to obtain steady employment and housing so that they have a strong shot at remaining abstinent and being to have a productive and happy life.
