"Luxury Treatment is an option that many don't know they have."

Luxury Drug Addiction treatment is different than other treatments in that it provides a level of comfort that is usually not found. For starters, private rooms and gourmet meals tend to be the norm. Some have a view of the ocean or updated appliances that one usually wouldn't find in another treatment center, which is why a lot of Hollywood stars prefer going to one of these places. By no means does this make other treatment centers less effective, but it is an option that is available. They are costlier, with insurance companies not usually paying for them. Call us today and we can find the right center for you.Mira was just eight years old when she starting taking medication to stop her from acting out in class. What originally felt like an overwhelmingly strong effect, and was impossible to resist, has increasingly lost its edge over the years. Mira, now in high school, doesn’t remember what going through a day without her chemical enhancing drug would be like.She has grown up with the pills and pills are all she knows. She still feels out of place in social gatherings, so at one of her first parties as an official high schooler, she jumped at the chance to grab a little liquid courage. When she can’t focus on school she takes a pill, so, naturally, the answer to any other problem must be to ingest something that alters her sense of self.Opposites may attract, but the combination of two dissimilar entities does not always end favorably. In the case of mood and mind altering substances, the results may spell disaster or even death.What Mira failed to consider is just how dangerous mixing alcohol and Amphetamines really is. The threat only increases for the millions of people who have become accustomed to life on ADD medication. The potential for abuse of both alcohol and prescription Amphetamines skyrockets when the two are combined.People are being prescribed Amphetamines in record numbers in recent years. Not only are more people taking such behavioral and performance enhancing drugs, but people are starting to take them at significantly younger ages.The new DSM-V, released in 2014, decreased the minimal age a person reaches a diagnosable age for ADD and increased the age that symptoms are required to start occurring. The changes allow for an increased number of people to meet the criteria and, therefore, be diagnosed with ADD and handed a prescription for Amphetamines.The ADD prescription drugs are becoming some of the most commonly filled medications in the United States. Vyvanse, one brand name drug, is ranked seventh most commonly prescribe pharmaceutical with 10.4 million prescriptions filled a month in the US.One of the most common misconceptions about mixing drugs such as Amphetamines and alcohol is that they will cancel each other out. The stimulation caused by the Amphetamine is not canceled out by the sedating effect of alcohol, rather the two combine to create a whole new beast.One danger caused by combing these substances is an increased potential for alcohol poisoning.Amphetamines affect the human body in such a way that a person can consume more alcohol than normal without experiencing the tell-tale signs of intoxication.Normally, such alcohol-induced effects as slurred speech, uncoordinated movements, and mental confusion indicate a need to stop drinking. However, these are altered by the stimulant’s effect.The body’s defense strategy to rid itself of the toxin by vomiting the contents of the stomach is also suppressed by the Amphetamines. The person may continue to consume alcohol far past the level of intoxication that is tolerable and into a game of Russian roulette.Another new terrible trend resulting from mixing alcohol and Amphetamines is suicide. The short half-life of most Amphetamines causes an emotional effect similar to a ride on a rollercoaster.The high is followed by a low mood, which is concerning in and of itself. Bring alcohol into the picture and the mood-altering effects of the combination is disastrous.Within a span of a few hours the warm, euphoric feelings created by the Amphetamines vanishes and the resulting mood is pummeled much lower than is typically experienced. A sudden and severe depression rises and, unfortunately, for many people, the consequence of this unexpected melancholy is suicidal thoughts and behaviors.The life-threatening aspect of mixing substances is not limited to self-inflicted harm. Altering an individual’s perception of reality is a side effect of both alcohol and amphetamines together, however the alteration is multiplied.The tendency to feel invincible or generally risky behavior increases exponentially with the amount consumed. The compounded decrease in cognitive functioning combined with diminished cautionary behavior tends to result in injury or death.Car accidents, falls and accidental injuries increase astronomically for a person under the influence of drugs and alcohol. The most common date rape drug is alcohol, which causes far more people to wake up to a nightmare situation all by itself. Unsafe sex and other dangerous situations occur far more often when drugs and alcohol are brought into the picture.For those who grew up taking prescription ADD drugs, however, an altered state is the norm. As millions of young adults move into adulthood with their prescriptions in tow, the ever-increasing death toll from mixing those drugs with alcohol becomes alarming.When children are taught that a solution to a problem is a pill, what does the future hold?
