Drug rehab: Prescription pill abuse
Submitted by andybeak on Sun, 05/18/2008 - 20:45.
When the word 'addict' is mentioned people often revert to a stereotypical picture of a dishevelled heroin addict sleeping on a park bench. Nothing could be futher from the truth - people from all walks of life get addicted to chemicals. A great many people are addicted to pills that they obtain on prescription. Many medications that can be obtained over the counter are abuseable, but I have known addicts to see multiple doctors in order to get multiple scripts for stronger medications. These addicts are often quite wealthy elderly people who became hooked on the medication after having it legitimately prescribed by a doctor.
