What are the Odds in Missouri?

On Sept. 27, 2007, Missouri Governor Matt Blunt announced a new plan titled Faith-Based Missouri. It is a program designed to coordinate the government with faith and community based groups to better service the population.

Missouri is wracked by drug and alcohol problems and can certainly benefit from such a program.

ALMOST 9% OF THE POPULATION DEPENDED UPON OR ABUSED ALCOHOL IN THE PAST YEAR

By dependant on alcohol we don't mean having one or two social drinks down at the local bar with friends. The person needs that drink to cope with life. Not only is it dangerous for the person who is addicted, it touches the lives of each and every citizen.

Do you want to be driving next to someone who abuses or depends on alcohol?

Having just one person addicted to alcohol living in your area can cause you hardship. How about having 426,586 of them? That's one in every ten drivers you see on the road, or one in every ten people at a football game.

Along with alcohol dependence and abuse, there is a high level of illicit drug use in the Show Me State.

8% USED ILLICIT DRUGS IN THE PAST MONTH

IN THE 12-17 YEAR OLD AGE BAND, 11% USED THEM IN THE PAST MONTH

IN THE 18-25 YEAR OLD AGE BAND, 18% USED THEM IN THE PAST MONTH

To have over 300,000 people using illicit drugs EACH MONTH is an alarming statistic.

Prescription Drug Addiction, Dependency and Abuse in Missouri

As in all other states, prescription drugs are also a problem in Missouri. In fact, in many states prescription drug addiction, dependency and abuse is quickly becoming an even bigger problem that illicit drugs.

Some people get addicted to prescription drugs by accident - their doctors give them prescriptions and when the patient tries to stop taking the drug, they can't do it.

That's why most drug companies and most doctors recommend that withdrawing from prescription drugs be medically supervised.

A prescription drug detox program is often necessary to withstand the symptoms of withdrawal.

If you, a family member or friend have a problem with prescription drug addiction, you should look into doing a prescription drug detox right away.

Is Drug Detox Necessary for Anything Other Than Prescription Drug Addiction or Dependency?

Yes, alcohol, heroin and some other drugs also require alcohol or drug detox. Alcohol withdrawal can be very painful, and medical dangerous, as can withdrawal from heroin and some other drugs. Heroin withdrawal is very similar to withdrawal from OxyContin, Vicodin, and other prescription painkillers.

The sheer effort to stop drinking and taking drugs can make the physical aspect of withdrawal to much for some people. Binge drinking, heavy drinking and drug addiction or dependency all indicate the need to look into the possibility of doing drug detox in Missouri. If you are addicted, you might also need alcohol or drug rehab.
