Did You Know? ... Interesting Facts and Statistics:
Three quarters of all heroin brought into the United States comes from South America and Mexico (with South America making up the majority of this amount)
Recreational drug use is when a person chooses to use drug or alcohol for purposes of enjoyment, particularly to enhance a mood or social occasion.
High doses of marijuana can result in an acute psychotic reaction; in addition, use of marijuana may trigger the onset or relapse of emotional problems in vulnerable individuals.
In 2008, among the 4.0 million persons aged 12 or older who received treatment for alcohol or illegal drug use in the past year, 2.2 million persons received treatment at a self help group, and 1.5 million received treatment at a rehabilitation facility as an outpatient. There were 1.1 million persons who received treatment at a mental health center as an outpatient, 743,000 persons who received treatment at a rehabilitation facility as an inpatient, 675,000 at a hospital as an inpatient, 672,000 at a private doctor's office, 374,000 at an emergency room, and 343,000 at a prison or jail. None of these estimates changed significantly between 2007 and 2008 or between 2002 and 2008, except that the number of persons who received treatment at a rehabilitation facility as an inpatient in 2008 was lower than that in 2007 (1.0 million) and 2002 (1.1 million).
Opiate withdrawal symptoms are similar to the flu but much worse such as aching, fever, sweating, shaking, or chills.
The abuse of opioid pharmaceuticals grown steadily over the last 10 years and has come to a point where it now overshadowed other drug such as heroin and cocaine.
