Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Ecstasy is criminalized in most countries under a United Nations (U.N.) agreement, and its possession, manufacture, or sale may result in criminal prosecution.

In 2008, 21.4 percent of teens aged 12 to 17 reported that, in the past year, they had gotten into a serious fight at school or at work; this was similar to the rates in 2007 (22.3 percent) and 2002 (20.6 percent). Almost one in six (14.5 percent) in 2008 had taken part in a group against group fight, which was lower than the rates in 2007 (15.4 percent) and 2002 (15.9 percent). About 1 in 30 (3.2 percent) had carried a handgun at least once, which was similar to the rates in 2007 and 2002 (both at 3.3 percent). An estimated 3.0 percent had sold illegal drugs, which was similar to the rate of 2.9 percent in 2007, but was lower than the 4.4 percent rate in 2002. In 2008, 4.6 percent had, at least once, stolen or tried to steal something worth more than $50; this was similar to the rates of 4.3 percent in 2007 and 4.9 percent in 2002. An estimated 7.3 percent had, in at least one instance, attacked others with the intent to harm or seriously hurt them in 2008, which was the same as the rate in 2007 and was similar to the 7.8 percent reported in 2002.

Numerous studies have shown an association between chronic marijuana use and increased rates of anxiety, depression, and schizophrenia.

Outpatient care uses various techniques such as cognitive-behavioral therapy, and problem-solving groups. Outpatient programs have historically had a very low success rate with heavily addicted individuals. Those who moderately abuse drugs or alcohol may find that outpatient drug rehab care may be effective in helping them to end their drug abuse problems.

Primary care physicians should not hesitate to screen for potential drug abuse or dependence if a patient presents specific symptoms that are known to be associated with problem use of a substance.

The rate of heavy alcohol use (drinking five or more drinks on the same occasion [i.e., at the same time or within a couple of hours of each other] on each of 5 or more days in the past 30 days) among adults with SPD in the past year was higher (9.4 percent) than the rate reported among adults without SPD in the past year (6.8 percent). Similarly, among adults with SPD, the rate of binge alcohol use (drinking five or more drinks on the same occasion on at least 1 day in the past 30 days) was 28.9 percent, higher than the 23.5 percent among adults who did not meet the criteria for SPD.
