Interesting Facts and Statistics:
The percentage of the population using illegal drugs increased from 6.3 percent in 1999 and 2000 to 7.1 percent in 2001. Between 2000 and 2001, statistically significant increases were noted for the current use of marijuana (4.8 to 5.4 percent), cocaine (0.5 to 0.7 percent), pain relievers (1.2 to 1.6 percent), and tranquilizers (0.4 to 0.6 percent). A change in NHSDA questions on hallucinogens caused the estimated rate of use of this category of drugs to increase from 0.4 to 0.6 percent between 2000 and 2001.
Street heroin is widely varying and unpredictable in purity. This means that the user may prepare what they consider to be a moderate dose while actually taking far more than intended. If this occurs and the user takes a dose comparable to their previous use, the user may experience drug effects that are much greater than expected, potentially resulting in a dangerous overdose.
"Bath Salts" are substance that when used, mimic the effects similar to cocaine or methamphetamine.
Once a state has banned bath salts, possessing and distributing the products becomes a federal offense.
Among the 5.1 million adults who reported an unmet need for mental health care and did not receive mental health services in the past year, several barriers to care were reported. These included an inability to afford care (42.7 percent), believing at the time that the problem could be handled without care (28.6 percent), not knowing where to go for care (19.8 percent), and not having the time to go for care (13.9 percent.
The medical causes of drug abuse are not yet completely understood. Researchers can only report that the repeated use of addictive drugs can bring about dramatic changes in both the structure and the function of the brain; this process can then result in compulsive drug use.
