Drug abuse is a crucial problem around the world, and in Gauteng, we see the highest number of drug abusers in South Africa. If you have developed a drug addiction and want a true shot at overcoming your addiction, Beethoven Recovery Centre offers a drug rehabilitation programme for people who are 18 years and older. We strictly admit people on a voluntary basis to ensure that they are willing to work with us and committed to overcome their drug addiction for good.
The Most Common Types of Drugs
When people think of the term “drug”, their first thoughts jump to chemical drugs such as cocaine, heroin, and the like. Apart from hard drugs, there are other addictive substances that are legal, easily obtainable, and as dangerous regarding the development of a full-blown addiction. Prescription medication also commonly contain addictive substances such as Opioids, Benzodiazepines, and Ambien. Finally, alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine are some of the most commonly consumed addictive substances – present in coffee, certain teas, cigarettes, and alcoholic beverages.
Signs of Addiction
There are several ways to identify if you, or someone close to you, might be an addict. One of the first, and most obvious, signs is bodily cravings. Bodily cravings can reach such an extent that it leads to unpredictable behaviour, poor decision-making ability, and excessive mood swings. Another sign is overconsumption of that specific substance. For example, if someone is addicted to alcohol, they are likely to consume excessive amounts of alcohol in comparison to their peers. The first step to drug rehabilitation is to admit that you have a problem and are willing to work towards getting clean and staying sober.
