Facts

  • The rate of current use of illicit drugs among young adults aged 18 to 25 has risen significantly over the past few years, and increased from 19.6 percent in 2008 to 21.2 percent in 2009 and 21.5 percent in 2010.
  • Some of the worst prescription drug withdrawal symptoms documented are for the drug Cymbalta (an anti-depressant), which are sometimes referred to as "nightmare-ish" because of how intense they can potentially be.
  • Research indicates that, like cocaine and other abused drugs, opiates activate the brain's reward system causing pain relief, a sense of euphoria and pleasure.
  • Methamphetamine is similar in structure to the brain chemical dopamine, the brain's pleasure transmitter, which is what causes neurons to release large amounts of dopamine which produce a high.

Men - Cambridge

Men only drug treatment centers are similar to standard treatment centers except all the participants are male. These gender specific recovery facilities are beneficial for men because they are able to share past traumatic memories in an atmosphere where they can feel free of judgment and having to maintain a tough exterior at all times. What drives men to experiment and become addicted to drugs or alcohol is usually different than women. The core issues that men struggle with when it comes to achieving and maintaining sobriety are also different than women. While attending a men only drug treatment program participants are counseled on these male specific issues and are given the education they need on how to avoid relapse once they leave treatment.
