Dotors Concerned About the Illegal Use of Adderall

A dangerous drug amongst today's college students, "study buddy", "the smart drug" or better known as Adderall has become a dangerous trend on college campuses across the nation.

Many students have admitted to using Aderall, Ritalin and other drugs used to treat ADHD, in order to optimize their studying during examination periods throughout the school year. Many of these young students later find themselves unable to study and incapable of carrying out daily tasks without the use of these highly addictive drugs which they have become addicted to.

Dr. Glen Hanson of the University of Utah's college of pharmacy warned that Adderall is just as addictive as methamphetamines and that the abuse of Adderall and similar drugs had detrimental effects on the brain which often lead to psychiatric disorders such as paranoia and schizophrenia in the long run.

So often, the immediate side effects of using such drugs fail to present themselves in early stages and individuals are encouraged to continue on with their addictions, unaware of its potentially irreversible physical and psychological effects.

Intervention


The Encarta dictionary defines Intervention as: “… an action undertaken in order to change what is happening or might happen in another’s affairs, especially in order to prevent something undesirable.”

At Cove Center for Recovery, a drug and alcohol addiction treatment center, Intervention is a loving process into a troubled person’s life to help motivate them to change and seek help. It is a process that begins long before the troubled person is even spoken to and continues long after the person seeks help. It involves the caring support of the troubled person’s closest friends, family and sometimes business associates. It is a process that brings the person’s “bottom up” rather than waiting for the person to “sink to the bottom”.

But beyond getting the troubled person help Cove Center for Recovery is highly interested in the ongoing support of the family before, during, and after that actual addiction intervention event. The troubled person’s destructive behavior did not take place overnight not in isolation; everyone is affected and needs time to heal.

Alcohol Dependency


It's easy to forget that alcohol is a drug too. Alcohol affects the brain - in the short term it impairs judgment, coordination and reflexes. When people use alcohol regularly they may develop tolerance and dependence. Tolerance means they will require more alcohol to achieve the same effect they used to get with smaller quantities, because the brain compensates for the sedating effects of alcohol and the liver breaks it down more quickly. Dependence means that alcohol use becomes central in their life. A lot of time is spent thinking about alcohol, obtaining it, using it and recovering from its effects. Use is continued despite knowing that it is causing harm.
A common feature of dependence is that a person will experience withdrawal symptoms if they reduce or stop drinking, due to increased excitability (irritability) of the brain. Typical alcohol withdrawal features last about 5 days and include:

shaking (tremor)
nausea & vomiting
anxiety
depression
sweating
headache
difficulty sleeping (may last several weeks)

Alcohol withdrawal can be very dangerous (e.g. seizures may occur); people drinking 8 or more standard drinks a day are advised to discuss a decision to stop drinking with their doctor as medication may be needed to prevent withdrawal complications.

Because  alcohol addiction, have so many dimensions and disrupt so many aspects of an individual's life, addiction treatment is not simple. Effective addiction treatment programs incorporate many components, each directed to a particular aspect of the illness and its consequences. Addiction treatment must help the individual stop using drugs, maintain a drug-free lifestyle, and achieve productive functioning in the family, at work, and in society. Because addiction is typically a chronic disease, people cannot simply stop using alcohol for a few days and be cured. Most patients addicted to alcohol require long-term or repeated episodes of care to achieve the ultimate goal of sustained abstinence of alcohol, and recovery of their lives.
