Drug addiction according to prescriptions, which I call drug addiction, like all drug addiction, including alcoholism (dependence on ethyl alcohol), although widely recognized today, has not yet received widespread distribution. And, of course, the combination of abuse of prescription drugs (legally or without), with “street drugs”, can add alcohol to the mix, although it is very dangerous and common. My Substance Abuse Professor James Crossen Ph / D came up with the general term “Drugogolism” to cover all the problems of chemical addiction, because, although they have superficial differences, much of the emphasis on the process of the downward spiral progression to final destruction and death, Polyethylene abuse is a technical term.
According to the Drug Enforcement Administration, about 7 million Americans abuse prescription drugs, more than the numbers who abuse cocaine, heroin, hallucinogens and ecstasy in combination. The DEA says that the number of drug addicts suffering from pain relief has nearly doubled since 2000, when 3.8 million Americans were connected. Recipe and illicit drug overdose are the second leading cause of accidental death in the United States, according to the Centers for Disease Control. “Nearly all deaths of poisoning in the United States are drug related,” says the CDC, “and most drug poisoning is caused by prescription abuse and illegal drugs.” Over-the-counter sleep prescriptions now kill more people than kill.
How to reconcile these facts with the continued over-prescription of these drugs and the continuing high deaths of celebrities, only the more visible end of this massive iceberg? Compare the following two statements. "He was wounded in glory, but he could not cope with the pressure of money and glory, he turned to drugs." Or: "His career went downhill and could not cope with the pain of failures, he turned to drugs." When the young man said to me on the phone as an adviser's hotline, “I only drink when I have problems.” I replied: "It seems to me that life is full of problems, so you will always drink!" On the other side, silence is to blame, then a small voice: "I never thought of it that way." Indeed !!
In the same way: “He drinks because his wife died”. How about a major whose wars are dead and who aren't? Erroneous effects for causes and, on the contrary, in self-loading reciprocating cycles of Drugogolism are common and not the exception. “It often happens that someone experiences discomfort, anxiety, or pain. Stephen Jurgens, Assistant Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at the University of Washington and a private addiction specialist in Bellevue, Washington. "They feel better when using drugs and often feel" I need it, "" I am not a drug addict, I have never taken a medicine to get up “- supported Michael Jackson. Dr. Paul, another psychiatrist, tells in his gay personal friends story called “Doctor, Drug Addict, Alcoholic,” “I have never taken a pill, I had no symptoms.” From the book Alcoholics Anonymous. Anyone who is able to disprove that they have a problem usually has it. By the time a question arises, some difficulties usually begin. When was the last time that your Sunday church was going, one sherry on Christmas Great Aunt Maud had to refute ideas that she might have problems?
What is missing in most media reports about the propensity for celebrities is that the MAN is a drug addict, and, more specifically, addiction to thinking prevails in the choice of a person. All chosen behavior is the result of thinking, so the addiction is in the head of the addict, not in a pill or bottle in his hand. I recently read another hypnotherapist's statement on the Internet: “After twenty-five years of practice, my observation is that dependence accounts for 10% of the physical and 90% of the psychological.” Otherwise, those who leave prison, rehabilitation departments or detoxification departments of hospitals that are physically sober will never relapse! Correctly! One client, whom I advised, at the earlier stage of a milder case, could not “get it” until I said: “You depend on changing your mood with a chemical means to get through the day”. His eyes focused and glowed. "It's me," he exclaimed, and his resistance to acknowledging his alcohol abuse had evaporated. It was always comfortable with the concept of addiction, as applied to its intermittent cocaine injections. The fact of the time, despite this, or relative incontestability in his case, since he hated the effects of cocaine while still clinging to the much slower destructive direction of alcohol consumption.
Thus, the answer chosen by the person to the internal and external “stress” is the missing link, this is what creates a different character. There comes a dependence on the "quick fix", to a simple way out. This, in addition to any other factors, becomes an ingrained habitual response, including a response to real or imagined stress created by the addiction itself. One of the many self-sufficient cycles of dependence, regardless of the identity of the owner. Part of the cognitive (thinking), behavioral apparatus of the habit, known as psychological addiction in Drugogolizme. And changes in cognitive processes and perceptions, caused by constant use, whether physical, due to chemical toxicity in the brain or psychological, from the addiction process itself, continue to actually create and further enhance perceived stress as the condition (-ease) progresses. Thus, there is a growing reliance on chemicals to relieve stress and increase the amount of stress, real or created mentally. This process underlies the confusion created by focusing on any combination of chemicals or circumstances at any given time.
This whole mentality relates to the physiology of the body's output, when the druggler initially tries to “clean up”. Thus, it becomes the main source of terror of the other-logical person in terms of the idea or results of the seizures, and not the seizures themselves. This is irresistible from the fact that with serious physical (metabolic) dependencies, which can be both physically and psychologically horrifying. The problem lies not in the original withdrawal, but in the true friend-and-irresistible, as they may seem. The problem is to learn to live life on an ongoing basis, without resorting to chemicals, to avoid / push away / retreat from internal and external reality.
How much the “oddity” of Michael Jackson and the reports that he is a “complex” person were not related to his personality, but were they really his answer to drug addiction? And degeneration in, theatrical emotionality and other forms of narcissistic immaturity, which so often accompanies the general deterioration of drugoholism, as Anna Nicole Smith showed. Worse, many categories of psychiatric drugs can cause potentially terrible reactions. Prozac, Paxil, Zoloft, Adderall, Ritalin, Concerta, Xanax, Lithium, Zyprexa, and other psychiatric drugs may encourage patients to believe that they improve when they too often get worse, without individuals realizing that their drugs are semi-finished deforming their mindset and feelings.
There are many reasons for this confusion around Drugogolism. Myth, disinformation, misunderstanding and ignorance, using the true meaning of the word, which is, “missing information”, abound. In the "First session with drug addicts." Nicholas A. Cummings, Ph / D, cites research that shows that MD identifies 0.05% alcohol / drug problems for those who cross their door, and those who are well trained in chemical dependence, determine 100%! 200 times more! Psychologists and other related professions are not much better in my experience and opinion. Psychology of addiction is a specialized area. Although physicians and clinical psychologists are highly respected and often quoted by the authorities, if they do not have this specialized education, this is most likely the case of blind, leading blind people.
The current customary attitude towards prescription drugs is blocking the MD from what is happening. How many times is a new drug conceived abroad? Sleep aids, barbiturates, etc. (Mebaral and Nembutal). Stimulants, (“elite”, such as Dexedrin, Adderell, Ritalin and Concert). Tranquilizers, (Benzodiazepines, such as Valium and Xanax). Pain relievers from opioids like Oxycontin down? They are currently the source of endless problems with drugs. I never get tired of remembering people: “The first medical use of heroin was like a cure for morphine addiction.” Therefore, when medical professionals proclaim the last drug for anesthetic or anti-tuberculosis treatment as non-addictive or non-addictive, I repeat: “Exception for people with chronic long-term anxiety or chronic long-term pain.” This corresponds to any combination of these factors, plus those caused by the drugs themselves, exciting, real or imagined, of course.
As drugogonism is stigmatized, people are not inclined to attribute bad “character flaws” to others, especially to those who worship and celebrate for other genuine talents. And the ongoing mental, emotional, and physical process of degradation / degeneration of drugogolism is attributed to other sources, in order to excuse the addicts again, in order not to “blacken” them. This goes hand in hand with drug addicts accusing the defense. In fact, vulnerability to drug abuse in recent studies (2009) is gradually increasing the 50% genetic / biochemical basis. There is also another additional constellation of factors that are beyond the limits of a person’s current willpower or control, from literal infantile trauma at the cell level, to role modeling from early childhood and beyond. And there are many others. The current mental pain, “His wife died ...” is the last, and sometimes the least important factor, as she accuses her of child pain. Again, there are many with severe childish pain that does not show any addiction.
Another source of confusion is the actual misinformation given by the psychiatric medical-pharmaceutical complex. This was strictly documented by the psychiatrist Peter Breggin, MD., At the highest levels of the medical bureaucracy. He reports how drug maker Eli Lilly was sued for concessions related to criminal fraud in this regard. In the mid-1990s, his "Toxic Psychiatry." outlining the growing problem of medical addiction. “The most common drug addict in America is a woman of forty, dependent on barbiturates and benzodiazapine,” he said at the time. The negative aspects of the commonly prescribed psychiatric drugs are described above, taken from his website, http://www.breggin.com. He puts growing propaganda embedded in the medical community, including the FDA, which is decreasing, circumventing or leveling off, and denying the negative effects of commonly prescribed psychoactive drugs.
It is fully responsible for the idea that medicines are not as harmful as other drugs, and are legal, so those who are attached to them are not real addicts. Also convenient denial for reciprocal faces. In fact, being 100% pure, you need to emphasize that they can be worse. Oxycontin from the Doctor is just as bad, IF NOT GOOD, than heroin from the dealer. This is similar to the confusion surrounding alcohol, another socially acceptable drug. Many can drink with pleasure and impunity. But as soon as the ominous landmarks of the habituation process begin to appear, a trained consultant can determine the condition several years before the final acceleration of deterioration.
Because of the subconscious nature of great denial, as well as the stigma and ignorance surrounding this process, those close to the addict are often the most completely blind to the disease. The fact that Elvis Presley received the last five months fifty thousand drugs from the Doctors was invisible to his personal staff. The apparent lurking corruption of the interrelated interpersonal influences of fame, power, status, and money, as a worsening celebrity surrounds them with yes-men, is a particular factor for the rich and those in the public eye. But how many alcoholics leave the complained spouse to later marry someone with a smaller number of objections, often by the alcoholic himself.
So now I hope that it is becoming more and more obvious that exciting processes include prescription drugs in the same way as illegal ones, and that celebrities are not exempt from identical mental and body states that occur in these circumstances. Specific drugs can have different outcomes, but an inefficient habituation process will have its similar consequences for the rich and famous, just as a scythe of friendliness reduces the poorly educated poor man suffering from the ghetto. If this article helps one person, I consider it successful, although I certainly hope for more.
