Drugs and addiction

Drug abuse can cause brain damage. It may not be apparent at first when you are in the early stages of drug use and you still think it’s a fun, cool thing to do or you think that it’s helping you to cope with your problems. But the deterioration in your ability to use your brain will become very apparent to family and friends over time.

Tragically, you will not realise this yourself, because your brain cells will be too fried for you to notice. What you will notice once you have been sucked into the horror world of addiction to drugs, is that you constantly feel afraid, angry or depressed, that life is joyless and a drab, that you often feel suicidal, that you are often involved in violent or ugly incidents, and that it’s all the fault of the rest of the world – they’re all out to get you. It’s a lonely, isolated, dangerous and hopeless world, the world of a drug dependent. The need for an effective drug treatment center should be realized sooner than later.
