Interesting Facts and Statistics:

It is a fact that heroin is particularly addictive because it enters the brain so rapidly. With heroin, the rush is usually accompanied by a warm flushing of the skin, dry mouth, and a heavy feeling in the extremities, which may be accompanied by nausea, vomiting and severe itching.

Among teens aged 12 to 17, the rate of current cigarette smoking in 2006 did not differ significantly for girls (10.7 percent) and boys (10.0 percent). The rate for both boys and girls declined between 2002 and 2006 (12.3 percent for boys in 2002; 13.6 percent for girls in 2002).

Among persons aged 12 or older in 2007-2008 who used pain relievers nonmedically in the past 12 months, 55.9 percent got the drug they most recently used from a friend or relative for free. Another 18.0 percent reported they got the drug from one doctor. Only 4.3 percent got pain relievers from a drug dealer or other stranger, and 0.4 percent bought them on the Internet. Among those who reported getting the pain reliever from a friend or relative for free, 81.7 percent reported in a follow-up question that the friend or relative had obtained the drugs from just one doctor.

With increased doses of amphetamines, users may become talkative, restless, and excited, and may feel a sense of power and superiority.

Between 2002 and 2004, past month marijuana use declined for male teens aged 12 to 17 (9.1 percent in 2002, 8.6 percent in 2003, and 8.1 percent in 2004), but it remained level for female teens (7.2, 7.2, and 7.1 percent, respectively) during the same time span.

Just as we turn down the volume on a radio that is too loud, the brain adjusts to the overwhelming surges in dopamine by producing less of the substance or by reducing the number of receptors that can receive and transmit signals. When this process takes place, the impact of dopamine on the reward circuit of a drug abusers brain will eventually become abnormally low, and the ability to experience any pleasure will be greatly reduced. This is why the drug abuser eventually feels flat and depressed, and is often unable to enjoy things that previously brought them pleasure. Now, they need to take the drugs in order to just bring their dopamine function back up to normal levels. And, they must take larger and larger amounts of the drug than they first did to create this dopamine high in the brain - an effect known as tolerance.
