What are the Odds in Virginia?
Over 167,000 people in the state of Virginia abuse or depend on illicit drugs per year.
- That translates into about one person in your neighborhood who depends or abuses illicit drugs.
Does that mean your neighborhood isn't safe? Not necessarily, but it does mean that your children are that much more likely to see (and potentially begin to use) illicit drugs.
What is crime like in Virginia?
Well, in a span of two days, the state saw two methamphetamine arrests. One was for possession, and possibly distribution, and the other was solely for distribution.
Concerning the former arrest, a man named Phillip Hadley Junior was arrested for possessing meth. A Lynchburg, VA local, Phillip is looking to serve at least 10 years but may face 40 if he is found to have produced the drug.
Virginia Task Force said that it found over 10 pounds of meth, which equals about $500,000 dollars street value, on the four people who were arrested. Supposedly these four are major distributors in the Virginia area.
Although these arrests help the police are having touble keeping up with the users and distributors. Why do people do methamphetamine in the first place? Once that question is answered, only then can we really start to resolve the issues that plague the state of Virginia.
As impossible as it may seem to answer that question, because realistically every person is different and every person will have his or her "own" reasons, parents can help protect their kids.
They need to take action and
talk to their kids about the problem. Undoubtedly, the expression,
"Parents, talk to your kids about drugs", is overused, but it is
equally overlooked. Every parent doing something can help with the odds
your kids will stay drug free.

When Is Drug Detox Needed for Prescription Drugs?
Many people wind up addicted to or dependent on prescription drugs because they can be so difficult to stop taking. With OxyContin, for example, your body becomes dependent on the drug within days or weeks, and addiction can also develop in a short time. When you try to stop taking them, it can be more painful than the pain you were initially taking them for.
Prescription drug detox helps alleviate that pain, so people taking them become willing and able to get off the drug. If they have also become addicted, they should do a drug rehab program after the drug detox.
