Did You Know? ...
Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Approximately 100 years after cocaine entered into use, a new variation of the substance emerged. This substance, crack, became enormously popular in the mid-1980s due in part to its almost immediate high and the fact that it is inexpensive to produce and buy.

In 2008, the specific drug categories with the largest number of recent initiates among persons aged 12 or older were marijuana use (2.2 million) and nonmedical use of pain relievers (2.2 million), followed by nonmedical use of tranquilizers (1.1 million), Ecstasy (0.9 million), inhalants (0.7 million), cocaine (0.7 million), and stimulants (0.6 million).

There were no statistically significant changes between 2005 and 2006 in the rate of current illegal drug use for any racial/ethnic subgroup among persons aged 12 or older or among teens aged 12 to 17. Among young adults aged 18 to 25 who reported two or more races, the rate of current illegal drug use decreased from 31.8 percent in 2005 to 22.4 percent in 2006. In that 18-to-25-year age group, 28.5 percent of American Indians or Alaska Natives, 22.7 percent of whites, 17.3 percent of blacks, 13.9 percent of Hispanics, and 9.0 percent of Asians were current illegal drug users in 2006.

In 2008, 11.1 percent of teens aged 12 to 17 reported that they had participated in substance use prevention programs outside of school within the past year. This was lower than the percentage reported in 2002 (12.7 percent). Almost four fifths (78.0 percent) reported having seen or heard drug or alcohol prevention messages from sources outside of school, lower than in 2002 when the percentage was 83.2 percent. The percentage of school-enrolled teens reporting that they had seen or heard prevention messages at school also declined during this period, from 78.8 to 75.9 percent.

One of the most important things that should be confronted in addiction recovery treatment addressing is the often misguided beliefs that an individual may hold onto about self, others and their environment.

In 2006, current cigarette smoking among teens aged 12 to 17 and young adults aged 18 to 25 was more prevalent among whites than blacks (12.4 vs. 6.0 percent for teens and 44.4 vs. 27.5 percent for young adults). Among adults aged 26 or older, however, whites and blacks used cigarettes at about the same rate (24.9 and 27.2 percent, respectively). The rates for Hispanics were 8.2 percent among teens, 28.8 percent among young adults, and 23.6 percent among those aged 26 or older.
