Drug Addiction Facts

  • Ecstasy is occasionally taken in conjunction with psychedelic drugs, such as LSD which is known as "candy flipping". Taking Ecstasy in combination with Ketamine is called "kitty flipping".
  • Research shows that the driving skills of someone under the influence of marijuana are impaired for at least 4-6 hours after smoking a single marijuana cigarette, long after the "high" is gone.
  • One of the more serious psychological side effects of stimulant drugs, particularly when abused, is the possibility of amphetamine induced psychosis. This type of psychosis can also occur at therapeutic doses as a result of long-term use of the drug. Individuals who experience this type of psychosis will exhibit paranoia, hallucinations and delusions. It is estimated that anywhere from 5 to 15% of users fail to recover completely.

Substance Abuse Treatment Services

Substance abuse treatment services can be obtained in several settings with various treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the various demands of clients with any sort of and level of addiction. With both short and long term and both inpatient and residential centers now being included in many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone receiving substance abuse treatment services for anybody who wants it.

Outpatient

Outpatient services are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehabilitation solutions with regards to intensity of care, since the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in many ways with no commitment of needing to remain in a treatment center while undergoing rehab services. Even if this may seem ideal it might not provide the much needed change of surroundings than a lot of people in recovery have to have to have a successful rehabilitation.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Quite often, the offender can choose which rehabilitation program they would like to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders benefit from decreased sentencing options so that they can move forward in their lives without having to be penalized any more.

ASL or Other Assistance for Hearing Impaired

The hearing impaired are often predisposed to alcoholism and drug and alcohol use as a result of problems their impairment impose on them. While detection of the problem is often hard among the hearing impaired, you can find ASL and other assistance services designed for them when drug abuse rehabilitation is required. Aside from ASL, such services might include assistive listening equipment and captioned video materials to ensure that deaf and hearing impaired people are receiving the support they require in alcohol and drug rehab.

Self Payment

Self Payment is necessary when a person's insurance won't pay for the entire cost of rehabilitation or will only cover some of it. In these situations, it may appear like a drawback but individuals actually have a much more leverage simply because they can select whichever program they want without the limitations from health insurance providers that so many people face. Likewise, rehab programs will frequently offer payment assistance for people whose only choice is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Sliding Fee Scale

A sliding fee scale is a payment assistance possibility provided by numerous drug treatment facilities to help help clients pay for rehabilitation where this may not have been doable originally. For example, one client's price for rehabilitation could be different and another person whose financial situation is better making them more prepared to pay the full cost of rehab. Registrars take into consideration additional factors aside from income including amount of dependents to determine the ultimate cost using the sliding scale.
