Drug Addiction Facts

  • In 2012 the average age of new meth users was approximately 20 years old.
  • The increase in serotonin caused by Ecstasy which produces a high also results in a low because the drug also interferes with its synthesis which leads to a considerable depletion of serotonin. As a result, it takes the human brain a significant amount of time to rebuild the store of serotonin needed to perform important physiological and psychological functions.
  • Meth is most often abused for days on end known as a "binge", whereby users often forego sleep and food to use meth.

Substance abuse treatment services are available in many different settings and with different treatment lengths and plans to accommodate the varying needs of clients with any kind of and degree of addiction. With both long and short term and both inpatient and residential facilities now being paid by many insurance plans, there's no need to postpone getting substance abuse treatment services for anybody who desires it.

Outpatient solutions are on the bottom end of the spectrum of rehab solutions regarding level of care, as the individual is able to preserve their lifestyle in several ways with no commitment of needing to be in a rehab program while undergoing treatment services. Even though this may seem perfect it will not provide the much needed change of surroundings than many people in recovery need to have a successful rehab.

Adolescents

When adolescents become involved in any sort of drug abuse, it is vital that they obtain top quality care to stop the problem in its tracks so that it doesn't get any worse and possibly jeopardize their future. Because adolescent substance abuse which continues often continues into adulthood, parents must remain astute and get their adolescent rehabilitation as soon as a problem is observed in a facility which addresses adolescent drug abuse.

DUI/DWI Offenders

DUI and DWI offenders in many cases are given the option or ordered to treatment as part of sentencing. Often times, the offender can pick which rehabilitation program they wish to enroll in. When successfully completed, DUI and DWI offenders can take advantage of decreased sentencing options in order to move forward in their lives without getting penalized further.

Self Payment

Self Payment is required when a person's insurance isn't going to pay for the total cost of rehab or will only cover part of it. In these cases, it may seem like a drawback but people really have a much more leverage due to the fact they can choose whichever facility they want without the restrictions from health insurers that so many people face. Likewise, rehab centers will often offer payment assistance for people whose only option is self payment to help them get into rehab.

Medicaid

Certain treatment facilities accept Medicaid in the event the individual is unable to self pay or present any other kind of private medical insurance. Medicaid might cover outpatient and short-term rehabilitation in a limited amount of centers, and in such cases individuals may want to explore the self pay alternative and come up with up any resources they are able to to fund a more quality treatment program that will produce better results, say for example a long-term residential drug treatment facility.

State Financed Insurance (Other Than Medicaid)

State financed insurance other than Medicaid may be used to cover the costs of drug rehabilitation if other kinds of insurance or self payment are not a possibility. If someone doesn't have any private insurance and doesn't yet know if they may qualify for state insurance, they can seek advice from their Social Services office in their area to ascertain if they are and then apply. Most state financed insurance will cover both outpatient and inpatient rehabilitation, but generally only within the state which provides the insurance plan.

Private Health Insurance

Depending on which program you are covered by, all private medical insurance plans generally cover some sort of drug treatment service which range from outpatient rehab to inpatient or residential drug and alcohol rehabilitation facilities. Individuals could possibly have to take part in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program which is in their network of providers and there could be other restrictions for example the amount of time their stay in rehab is covered. Individuals can select an excellent center they prefer and speak with a treatment specialist to determine if their insurance covers it.
