What are the Odds in Washington?
One in five families in Washington will be faced with an addiction problem at some point.
The odds are, that because you are reading this, you already know that there is a problem.
We put these statistics together for you to have some idea of where or how your family members are getting drugs and what drugs are available in your area.
Over 50 million people in the U.S. are using prescription drugs to get high sometime during the year.
Over 100 million people have used prescription drugs to get high sometime in their lifetime.
Washington State has specific problems of its own and so do the families that live there.
Heroin, cocaine, marijuana, methamphetamines, prescription drugs, and club drugs are abused in Washington
Drugs are sold by 10% of tenth and twelve graders, in the Seattle high schools.
In 2004 8.5% of the population reported past month use of illegal drugs.

In a recent study one in 10

stimulants, or other illegal drugs.
Prescription Drug Detox and Prescription Drug Rehab
Although the study on truck drivers focuses on prescription stimulants - they're trying to stay awake - stimulants are not the only prescription drugs creating a problem in Washington. Prescription drug addiction, dependency and abuse are common with painkillers such as methadone, OxyContin, Percocet and Percodan, as well as Vicodin and Lortab. All of these drugs are widely used and abused in Washington.
Getting off prescription drugs can be even more difficult than getting off street drugs - withdrawal can be painful and uncomfortable and, in some cases, can create medical problems. Most people will benefit from a stay in a comfortable drug detox before going to drug rehab if they are using methadone, OxyContin, Percocet, Percodan, Vicodin, Lortab and other prescription drugs.
These drugs a very addictive and accidental dependency can occur after a short period of time. Even if you are under a doctor's care accidental dependency can happen and leave you with a problem.
Dependency or addiction to benzodiazepines can also be a problem. As with prescription painkillers, the best remedy is a prescription drug detox program. If addiction is a problem then a drug rehab may be in order.
