The numbers are in: three-fourths of high school age children have used a variety of drugs including tobacco, marijuana, prescription drugs and alcohol. Even more alarming is that nearly 20% of these children may be addicted to these substances.
While this news may seem dismal, there is hope and a chance at recovery, provided that parents aren’t in denial and provided that they seek the most effective avenues for help.
“There’s a great deal of empirical data that supports our position of the effectiveness of holistic drug rehab,” begins a spokesperson for Mountainside
Drug Rehab and Alcohol Treatment Center. “Simply put, there’s no better chance for long term sobriety than by utilizing holistic drug rehab. Mountainside was the pioneer for this type of rehab over a decade ago. The effectiveness of our approach has been recognized and duly noted among our peers. We continued to refine our original hypothesis and created a drug rehab program that is highly effective for individuals of all ages and from all walks of life.”
Teen drug abuse is growing, particularly alcohol abuse, causing cognitive and mental impairment as well as stagnation in emotional development. In addition, alcohol use and abuse tends to trigger risky behaviors among teens.
