A Guide to Recognising an Addiction Problem

The many pressures of modern living cause many people to seek solace with narcotics; cocaine, meth (ice), heroin and amphetamines are all commonly procured in most major cities, and with organised crime at the helm, these illegal substances find their way into every community. Drug use is found at every level of society, and if someone close to you is acting weird, here are a few tell-tale signs that a person is addicted to a substance.

Losing Weight

Certain drugs like amphetamine and ice affect the metabolism, and one of the side effects of use is a lack of appetite, plus the heart rate is high and the person burns a lot of calories. If a family member or a friend seems to be losing weight, you might want to investigate further. With a luxury drug rehab center in Thailand, should the person be hooked on such a substance, this is the best treatment available. Ice, for example, is a very intense drug and it takes skilled professionals to guide the user to accepting things and finding the resolve to do what it takes to clean the system completely and remain clean.

Irritable & Withdrawn

This could be regular bouts of irritability, or it could be violent outbursts, even a change of personality, as the regular drug use begins to affect their disposition. Of course, different drugs have different effects, plus each person is different, but for most, there will be bouts of depression and a general dislike of life, which seriously affects relationships. It is normal for an addict to become an introvert, removing themself from social situations and often failing to hold down a job.

Radical Mood Swings

If you have a friend who seemed really down in the dumps, then, almost miraculously, they are feeling on top of the world, this could be due to the euphoria experienced when ingesting their drug of choice. When a user is not under the influence of their chosen drug, they will seem quite and perplexed, as they yearn for a hit, which, for the addict, will return them to some sort of normality.

Money Issues

Drugs are not cheap and a regular user of ice or coke would have an expensive habit, which grows as time passes, due to the tolerance levels rising, leading to using more in order to reach the same high. Even the rich and famous eventually end up in debt, thanks to drugs like cocaine and ice, so if someone you know keeps asking to borrow money, it might be to buy drugs.

Poverty, Black And White, Emotion, Hdr, Sadness, Life
It is only with the help of family and good friends that a person can take the first step to quitting the drug, and with professional help at a known rehab centre in Thailand, you have the best chance of long-term success. If you would like to learn more about their rehab programs, a Google search will help you find their website and you can find out about the range of treatments, specific for certain types of addiction.
