The ultimate goal of all Alcohol Rehab or Drug Rehabilitation Centers should be to enable the individual from Pelican Bay, Texas to achieve lasting abstinence. Much research has indicated that in order for drug and alcohol addiction treatment to be effective, it must teach the individual how to change to their compulsive behaviors in order to remove the addiction and to be able to avoid a possible relapse.

Interesting Facts and Statistics:

Past month illegal drug use also was associated with the level of past month alcohol use. Among teens aged 12 to 17 in 2005 who were heavy drinkers (i.e., drank 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), 59.9 percent also were current illegal drug users, which was higher than among nondrinkers (5.0 percent).

Among adults aged 26 or older, 6.1 percent reported current illegal drug use in 2006. In this age group, 4.2 percent used marijuana, and 2.2 percent used prescription-type drugs nonmedically. Less than 1 percent used cocaine (0.8 percent), hallucinogens (0.1 percent), and inhalants (0.2 percent). The only significant change between 2005 and 2006 in the rates of past month use among adults in this age group involved heroin, which increased from 0.03 to 0.14 percent. Lifetime nonmedical use of OxyContin among adults aged 26 or older increased from 0.9 percent in 2005 to 1.1 percent in 2006, and past year use of stimulants and heroin also increased (stimulants, from 0.6 to 0.9 percent; heroin, from 0.1 to 0.2 percent).

According to the most recent government statistics that have been made available, approximately 30 million people in the United States have an addiction to drugs or alcohol.

The most dangerous side effect of OxyContin is respiratory depression.

In 2005, 23.4 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; 16.8 percent had taken part in a group-against-group fight; 3.2 percent had carried a handgun at least once; 3.3 percent had sold illegal drugs (down from 3.8 percent in 2004); 4.2 percent had, at least once, stolen or tried to steal something worth more than $50; and 7.4 percent had, in at least one instance, attacked others with intent to seriously hurt them (down from 8.2 percent in 2004).

The annual number of new daily smokers aged 12 to 17 decreased from 1.1 million in 1997 to 747,000 in 2000. This translates into a reduction from 3,000 per day to 2,000 per day in the number of teens who begin smoking on a daily basis.
