Drug Addiction Facts

  • Studies indicate that the brains of Ecstasy users who experience serotonin depletion take a significant amount of time to restore the level of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • Patients who require detox services due to concerns about withdrawal also benefit from inpatient programs, as detox services can be included as a part of inpatient treatment programs. After detox (if needed), patients undergo an intensive, daily drug/alcohol treatment regimen to learn about the addiction in a supportive, immersive environment.
  • Crystal meth is a more potent version of meth, and typically resembles small fragments of shiny white pebbles or rocks which can be smoked using glass pipes that are very similar to the pipes that are used to smoke crack cocaine.
