That generally means drug abuse ? By definition, it is a physical dependence on various substances, among which are the properties of the high toxicity and rapid evaporation (in most cases), and addictive.
It is believed that substance abuse is a priority, "passion" for many drug users on the grounds that the substances are sold for use in almost any store. That is, as in the alcoholism , A man easily maintain their relationship, just come to the store and buy what they need.
Initially, substance abuse began to show at the end of the 19th century (there was evidence of the poisoning of various substances of chemical origin), but, unlike opiomania Similar to most often are fatal. The status of the disease it has acquired in the mid-20th century, when it was known and identified the main symptoms of substance abuse .
What substances addicts use
As already mentioned, you can buy them at any store where there is stationery. For example, among young drug addicts is very popular and adhesive substances that evaporate quickly. This can be ethyl and ammonia And detergents, which, in combination with each other can give a very unusual effect. It may begin as a harmless desire to "be like everyone else", and subsequently develop into a more serious stage.
For example, with age, drug abuser can go on to something "stronger" than the glue - for substances that have a detrimental effect on the body. These can be highly toxic substances and preparations, and hard drugs ( heroin . crack cocaine . mescaline etc.). This is similar to substance abuse cocaine addiction . In the later stages of the disease are used essential oils And other phytochemicals. Naturally, the higher the stage, the stronger the complications and substance abuse.
Signs of abuse
As a rule, fairly easy to identify the person who is under the influence of toxic substances. The symptoms of substance abuse may occur at any point in time to determine the most important stage of the disease and the effect of toxic poisoning in a particular case.
A person who is only beginning to consume the toxins after a few breaths dizzy, he goes straight, feet constantly stumbling, besides his speech becomes incoherent, incomprehensible, and sometimes quite difficult to determine what he says, and tells you anything in general, or just grunts.
Also, in the use of toxins people feel a certain sweetness in the mouth, they start nauseated, plus everything they scared thirsty. It should be noted that during the so-called " arrival "A man greatly slows down the reaction, his body filled with ease and that person fills euphoria . In principle, that substance abuse is experienced in the use of materials can be divided into 3 stages.
First step inhalant inhalation is 1-3 as a rule, they have no effect, except that a person who inhales their body starts to happen a protective reaction. It is fraught with the fact that in mind there is a strong weight, appears dizziness , Nausea, often it all comes to an end and, as people are, in principle, can not breathe anymore. The substance is only just beginning to penetrate into the brain.
Second step - 4-6 breaths, so-called "golden mean" sniffers have seen a marked improvement in sentiment, there is a slight dizziness, but everything starts to look brighter, man wants to constantly smile, jump, sing, laugh and give joy to everyone around. The head comes inexplicable clarity and thought processes are accelerated. This indicates that the substance has got into the brain, but the amount is not large enough yet to fully take hold of the psyche.
Third step - 6-8 breaths, one has little control over his body, he begins to lose touch with the outside world. At the close of eyes watched hallucinations And perception of the world as such, gradually comes "out." Tested enchanting feeling and reality are very much distorted in the eyes of a man who is in a state of chemical intoxication.
It is worth noting that these substances cause addictive for those who make them. Dependency may be either physical And Psychological . Over time, substance abuse requires an increasing number of breaths, he may long to spend time outside the home, and gradually increase the dose.
As a rule, the mental health of the person who uses chemicals greatly undermined. A man becomes aggressive, sometimes he had a period melancholia Its behavior is difficult to call adequate. Under the eyes of most bruising Such as those that occur during sleep deprivation. Sami eyes become red, the redness usually lasts even after the eroding effect of the use of inhalants.
It should be noted that the human brain is degraded by exposure to such substances, i.e. the number brain cells each inhalation becoming smaller. The skin changes color, often pale and begins to give blue. After prolonged use of muscle atrophy, falls sensitivity may exceed the threshold of pain. Determine the company of drug addicts, or understand where they are most likely going quite simple. Companies such an abundance of adolescents tend to profanity in speech, wandering eyes, reddish whites of the eyes, as well as some slowness or naoborot- active in movements as well as in speech.
To muster addicts resistant characteristic chemical smell (in closed rooms, basements) or scattered from the used tubes of glue and cellophane bags. Often, in such places as you can watch the bottles of beer, or a lot of calves from cigarettes.
Treatment for substance abuse
Treatment of addiction is carried out as follows. The patient was placed in a hospital in drug treatment clinic Where he restored the mind, it is necessary to return the lost property of the organism. In parallel, drug treatment: to enter a substance that helps to overcome the feeling of addiction to inhalants in the patient.
If the patient gave substance to the hospital in time, success will often be positive. However, one of the major complications of substance abuse is that the human brain, which is subject to long-term chemical resistance is destroyed, resulting in the patient may commit acts completely inappropriate, in terms of a normal person. In this scenario, a patient sent for compulsory treatment in a psychiatric, and then in the drug treatment clinic, in such cases, as a rule, the psyche is not restored and the person gets a life-long disability status.
Diagnosis of substance abuse in itself is a complex process, since it is possible that people just suffer from chronic insomnia, for example, and that, and other inherent factors such as under-eye circles, unkempt appearance, melancholy, and some detachment from what is happening around.
The majority of substance abuse is very common amongst troubled teens from poor families, which, in principle, it is not surprising. Purely for the reason that their peers tend to have consumed these substances, they begin to use them only on the advice of friends, and eventually did become a substance abuse with a strong attachment to the volatile substances, and do not even think about the fact that in this time happens to their body. First suffers mucosa Because through it are toxic fumes. However, the greatest impact falls on the human brain, since, as already mentioned, the substances that fall into it, along with krovyu- cause a general degradation.
While some believe substance abuse "fad" that can always quit, addiction, she is, believe in something similar to dependence on drugs hemp Which has some similar characteristics. It should be noted that any addictive, which is caused by prolonged use of illicit or toxic substances, it is difficult poborot- the longer a person uses them, the more difficult in the future will use to get rid of it.
The situation with the substance is identical to the situation with the use of any desired drug- addiction, harmful effects on the body, to undermine the psyche, and the inability to quit without the help of someone else.
We should also focus on issues such as becoming a man of substance abuse from a normal family. In such cases occur mainly due to the fact that the beloved son fell under the influence of bad company in which it is likely to have persuaded to do a few breaths, just taking "on the weak". To avoid this, parents need to see who communicates their son, and, if possible, to control his circle of communication.
As it would be unfortunate as it may sound, but the phenomenon of substance abuse is gone from the CIS countries, and at the moment it is in Russia every year more and more students start to use inhalants.
It should be noted that the highest number of addicts is among minors. Children usually start to get involved in this sort of thing in 11-13 years, although there are cases where substance abuse are children who were just 6-7 years. For substance abuse at such a young age results in the fact that the children were left to themselves, most often come from dysfunctional families or homeless children.
In general, the diagnosis of substance abuse among children is almost the same as in adults, but with one exception. Children easier to overcome the dependence on drugs than adults. Basically, it all depends on the mood and desire of man to overcome addiction, because, as you know, if a person does not want to help yourself, then no one can help him at all.
As already mentioned, in some complications of substance abuse (in the case of a long period of inhalation), the human brain can be destroyed to the extent that the drug abuser goes into a state of indifference to the world around them and their own health. The person will suffer from a mental disorder or to treat everything from melancholy.
If you pay attention to adults and adolescents who are undergoing rehabilitation, the more positive results you can expect it from a teenager, with the right psychological approach it can convince the futility of abuse, as such, and to show life with another rakursa- more positive than the one in to which he was accustomed, in consequence of which he will have ambitions, plans, and dreams, and substance abuse will be forgotten like a bad dream.
You can also add that in its essence, substance abuse as a social phenomenon may testify about very much. For example, in the CIS substance abuse is common, given that the substance involved mostly teenagers, this leads to the conclusion that they come from dysfunctional families, and thus helps to calculate the poverty rate in the selected area, locality or country. And also help to understand what the number of troubled teens.
Substance abuse at school
Among young people with addictions, many of the toxins go into high, medium, and in some cases and lower classes. For these children, to make a few inhalations school is commonplace. For example, if he misses a lesson, he asked to go out, go to the toilet, there will take a few breaths from the package, which is adhesive and will return back to the lesson. Recognize it can be on an uneven gait, lack of facial expression, or simply the characteristic chemical smell. It is likely to be or melancholic and audio would not be able to respond. The symptoms of substance abuse among schoolchildren may be quite the opposite, and manifested extreme excitement.
