What Are Some Diseases Brought by Drug Abuse?

Question by lela1997: What are some diseases brought by drug abuse?
I’m doing an essay about why drug abuse is so bad, so how do drugs impact us, and what are some diseases brought by drug abuse?

Best answer:

Answer by Barry
Hepatitis C is usually brought about by drug addiction, though not always. Drug rehabs in California might have more information about such things. I’d recommend seeking out pamphlets on whatever drugs you are researching. Most 12-step meetings have them for very cheap and they detail the negative effects of drug abuse.

Do some research. The consequences of drug abuse are endless.

  • Chris Blevins says:

    Are you serious dipshit?

  • Matthew Mammone says:

    Yup, several seizures years back, and one nearly killed me when it hit
    right after Getting off my bike right before I was crossing town and
    maneuvering traffic. Had I gone out on the road, i would have narrowly
    survived, goin traffic or carrying my bike down through the hillside park
    100 ft stairway without my helmet. So I should just look at myself as an
    addict for taking benzos every day? Or is it because I also take them for
    emotional pain and feeling good from anything ingested is sin? BULL

  • bondero says:

    @Vipguy2003 can methodone help you with opiates withdrawl?

  • Peggy Hill says:

    Because it’s a documentary about drug abuse, not actual, necessary
    treatment.

  • duhadamduh says:

    Oxycontin generic of Percocet lord how can they be this addicted and not
    know shit

  • Parag0n says:

    I suppose in context you are correct however I still feel that these
    medications of dependence are necessary due to legitimate patients who
    suffer from various illnesses. Due to the abuse of these medications it has
    actually had a terrible effect on people who need medications of
    dependence. Doctors don’t want to prescribe them because of drug addicts
    abusing the system. You also have people who are low on cash or just greedy
    and wiling to divert the drugs to the street, it’s a viscous cycle.

  • Matthew Mammone says:

    I take benzos. Seizures. Pills that allow me a life, period. Not to improve
    my live or make it better. I’d be dead, eventually, without these two
    little tablets. A seizure can hit anytime, no warning. In public say on a
    sidewalk, you hit the floor, and hit your head, some people bite off their
    tongues, I did myself once partly. Sewn back in place. Memory loss is bad
    for me, I lose memories. Just one hurts…. the last time I spoke to my
    Grandma is gone. Don’t blame pills because you fucked up

  • drugrehabtreatment says:

    Not fun

  • Vipguy2003 says:

    @jamesbond504 Absolutely, methadone clinics all over the country dispense
    daily dosages of methadone to addicts so they don’t have to deal with the
    pains of withdrawal. This allows them to work & lead a normal life.

  • Mark Teel, II says:

    Jus a word of hope: I was addicted to oxy for about 6 years, and ended up
    shooting heroin. I was ready to give up and die, and prayed for help. I’d
    lost all my stuff, dropped out of school – high school and college. Had
    violated my probation and thought I was looking at prison. God helped me,
    and I trusted Jesus as the One who could spare me, even heal me and give me
    real life. He did, and its the best thing I’ve ever known. Look to Jesus,
    He has the power to pull us out from hell’s mouth!

  • Peggy Hill says:

    I understand and agree with you completely. I think it should be legal for
    those who truly need and sympathize with those who need it but that can’t
    get it.

    So much bias, this really only shows one side of the coin, 2 sides to every
    story and this documentary only is interested in the negative face. What
    about the patients who actually legitimately require these sorts of
    medications? Why did this documentary only cover the disgusting addicts who
    abuse drugs and not touch on things like palliative care and drugs like
    Oxycontin used for people suffering from debilitating illnesses such as
    terminal cancer.
