S ubstance abuse, defined as the problematic use of alcohol, tobacco, or illicit drugs, has been called the nation's number one health problem. The costs to society are enormous; the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism estimates that alcohol and drug abuse are associated with 100,000 deaths per year and cost society $100 billion per year. See page 1413 for definitions of strength-of-evidence levels. It is thought that approximately 10 percent of American adults have a problem with drugs or alcohol, and an estimated 20 percent of patients seen by family physicians have substance-abuse problems, excluding tobacco use. Patients who abuse alcohol and drugs are much more likely to develop medical problems than the general population.

Is My Child A Substance Abuser? Click on a link for more information Introduction - What this page is about Symptoms of Drug Abuse Links to Related Pages My child... ..has gone from being a nice kid to very mean and angry all the time ..is wearing all black or has become very sloppy in attire ... Parents on a Guilt Trip INTRODUCTION What Is This Page About? Every day, our kids have to make choices that we, as parents, never even dreamed about when we were kids. Peer pressure is a powerful thing, and many times, our kids will reluctantly go along with the crowd and do things that they are not comfortable with and know are harmful in order to gain acceptance. However, if this behavior repeats itself, over time it will manifest itself in addiction. This can lead to serious behavioral, emotional and health problems , with the symptoms of drug abuse mimicking attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), bipolar illness or major depression, which may be misdiagnosed if the care provider does not know of an existing substance abuse problem. As parents, how can we tell if our children are abusing substances? This is a question many parents ask themselves when their child is having difficulties. Unfortunately, too many parents really don't want to know the answer, because this is one subject that can be too scary, frustrating and guilt-laden to deal with. They may ask the right questions and will even do a little digging around to come up with answers, but then will conclude that there is not a problem and will ignore all the signs and symptoms of addiction that their child actually manifests.

EMC 675 Class Web Quest: Substance Abuse This Web Quest on Substance Abuse was written during the Fall 1997 Critical Issues in Technology class at ASU West by Jolene Barresi, Carrie McCune, Mary O'Malley and Kevin Rapps, under the guidance of Dr. Alice Christie. The Task Your best friend, Chris, is in the hospital. Chris was rushed to the emergency room by ambulance last night and is in critical condition. Although they cannot talk with their patient, Chris's doctors feel certain they are dealing with a drug overdose. This comes as a total surprise to you. You have no idea that Chris may have been involved with drugs. Your shock is compounded by your lack of knowledge about drugs, drug addition, telltale signs of drug consumption, and ways to get help when drugs become a problem. Your job, then, is to: Become an expert about illegal drugs and issues surrounding their use. Create an ad or poster that visually conveys the message you want to get across.

Substance Abuse and Woman Abuse by Male Partners Larry W. Bennett, Ph.D. Jane Addams College of Social Work, University of Illinois at Chicago Publication Date: September 1997 Table of Contents Introduction Perspectives On Substance Abuse and Woman Abuse Substance Abuse and Batterers Substance Abuse and Battered Women ... In Brief Introduction Substance abuse and woman abuse are closely associated in the public's mind, so much so that many people believe the use of substances is a direct cause of woman abuse. Others view substance use as a risk factor which, while not a direct cause, may increase the frequency or severity of woman abuse. Still others believe substance abuse and woman abuse are separate issues, and any apparent relationship between them is illusory. Substance abuse, as used in this paper, refers both to the abuse of alcohol or other drugs, and to dependency on alcohol or other drugs. While partner violence includes same-sex violence, this discussion of partner violence will be limited to abuse of women by their male partners or ex-partners, so the term woman abuse will be used throughout this paper.

Home About Sponsors Mission History ... Join us Drug abuse is a monumental public health problem, causing many accidental deaths, contributing to the spread of infectious diseases, and resulting in much misery in general. In 1994, Connecticut alone spent $2.96 billion on substance abuse costs. Someone in your life has probably been harmed by the War on Drugs. Here are some of the casualties: Cancer patients who suffer needlessly from chronic pain because their physicians are afraid to prescribe morphine or other necessary pain medication. Our federal government monitors prescribed medications and harasses physicians in order to protect us from ourselves. Hundreds of thousands of nonviolent Americans who are imprisoned for drug possession. Many of these are young people who will become violent criminals because that's what they learn in prison. You can help stop the madness and win the peace. The government created the problems of drug prohibition, and the government can solve them by considering alternatives to the current policy of zero tolerance.
