Facts

  • Of the over 2 million Americans aged 12 or older in need of treatment for an illicit drug or alcohol use problem in 2010, 2.6 million received this treatment at a specialty facility. However, 20.5 million persons who required treatment did not receive it.
  • Methamphetamine can produce a high for 8-24 hours when smoked, as opposed to smoking cocaine which produces a high for approximately 20-30 minutes.
  • Women have less water in their bodies than men, so after a man and woman of the same weight drink the same amount of alcohol, the woman's blood alcohol concentration will most likely be higher.
  • Methadone withdrawal can be up to twice as severe as morphine or heroin withdrawal and can last for several weeks or more.

Macon, Mississippi - Adolescents

As a parent or caregiver the thought of enrolling your child into a drug treatment center is often an overwhelming task. Unfortunately, just like adults, adolescents become addicted to drugs and alcohol and need professional help in order to stop using. Due to their young age it is not an option for them to attend an adult drug treatment facility. Many specialized and age appropriate drug rehabilitation programs have been created to focus on adolescents and their specific needs pertaining to drug addiction rehabilitation. Treatment professionals who are experienced in youth counseling and therapy are able to work with your loved one and guide them through their recovery process.
