What are the Odds in Alabama?


One out of ten Alabama high school seniors report using methamphetamines

One out of seven 12th graders have used ecstasy to get high

Almost half of all high school seniors have used marijuana


If you're a citizen of Alabama, you've most likely come to the realization that Alabama's not what it used to be. With its rampant drug use, this beloved state has grown to one of the statistically worst in terms of drug use, drug addiction, and drug related crime.

Just how bad is it? In 2006, of the 67 counties that make up the state only one county, Choctaw had no arrests for the sale or possession of drugs. ONE, just ONE. Though, that most likely has to do with the fact that Choctaw's population has been steadily declining since the saw mills closed down in the 1920's. And of course, Hurricane Frederic ripping through in 1979 surely didn't help matters as most people don't up and move to a disaster area.

There's no place in Alabama that's immune to this epidemic and sadly, no one knows this better than your kids.

One out of four high school students have been offered, sold or given an illegal drug on school property. Yes, that's ON SCHOOL PROPERTY.

One in five high school students can obtain marijuana within an hour and one in seven kids are getting high using an illicit drug each month. One in ten is using prescription drugs like Valium and Oxycontin to get high and one in seven 8th graders have used inhalants. That's a lot of kids that most likely already need a good drug rehab program and they aren't even 16.

Put another way, half of the kids at your child's school are getting high. And if your kids aren't, then they are being bombarded with offers at every corner. How long do you think your 15 year old can hold up to that kind of pressure? How long could you?

Illicit drugs and the crime that comes from it have turned our schools from places of learning into modern day prisons. Think about it. What if you had to go to work knowing that 7% of the individuals there were carrying weapons? What if 23% were selling drugs? How about a 30% chance that your belongings will be stolen or damaged by a fellow co-worker? You'd probably feel pretty unsafe. In fact, so does your child. As it turns out, 7% of freshmen miss at least one day of school each month because they feel unsafe at or while traveling to or from school. Honestly, who can blame them?

Prescription Drug Rehab and Drug Detox in Alabama

As with all other states, prescription drug addiction and abuse is climbing in Alabama. Many are very dangerous to take, and difficult to stop taking without drug detox, and possibly drug rehab.

Painkillers, antidepressants, anti-anxiety medications, sleeping pills and stimulants are all included.

Which prescription drugs should you watch out for?

Brand names include OxyContin, Vicodin, Prozac, Valium, Xanax, Ambien, Ritalin and Adderall. That's not all of them, but they're the main ones. They're all readily available in Alabama. And all of them may require prescription drug detox to withdraw from safely.

There is no doubt that someone you know is dependent on these drugs and needs help. It may be a friend, your kids, your parents, your husband or wife, it may even be you.

The best advice or guidance you can get is from a prescription drug detox program who will assess your situation and tell you whether you need to withdraw under a doctor's care.
