Marijuana is the most commonly abused illicit drug in the United States. It is a dry, shredded green and brown mix of flowers, stems, seeds, and leaves derived from the hemp plant Cannabis sativa. The main active chemical in marijuana is delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol; THC for short.
Crack is a highly addictive form of cocaine that is typically smoked. The term "crack" refers to the crackling sound heard when the substance is heated, presumably from the sodium bicarbonate that is used in the production of crack.
While in a drug rehabilitation program the addict will detox off the drug or drugs they are addicted to and begin to experience what it feels like to live a life drug-free. In rehab, recovering addicts are in a supportive drug-free environment. They are able to address the issues that bought them to rehab. Often times, they will work one on one with trained counselors as well as in groups. Being surrounded by others in the recovery process provides them with many shoulders to lean on, not to mention the treatment benefit of professionally trained staff.
Methamphetamine addicts may lose their teeth abnormally quickly, a condition known as "meth mouth".
