DRUG ABUSE Defined

	DRUG ADMINISTRATION TERMINOLOGY
Too much of a good thing	DRUG ABUSE
Drug Abuse is a quantitatively definable administration of a consumable chemical substance in which the resulting effect produced is the determining factor used to measure some arbitrarily excessive quantity or one that exceeds the standards maximum dose and a lull in that effect experienced, triggers repeated administrations. Drug abuse is predominantly an educational disorder. When someone is improperly taught how to use drugs or learns on their own, abuse is inevitable to occur. As a result of the war on drugs (WOD) there is far more drug abuse in the American sociey than anywhere else in the world. Those who abuse drugs may or may not be prone to abusive behavior. Thus, there are two types of drug abuse: 1) Drug abuse that may be genetically predisposed; and 2) Drug abuse that emerges from the lack of an education in how to measure the quantity needed. By adhereing to dose administration specifications, a patient is able to aviod drug dependency.
Drug Abuse is related to: substance abuse chemical substance abuse substance use disorder (SUD) Drug Abuse is not to be confused with other forms of drug administration: drug use drug dependency anti-drug disorder fatal overdose (suicide) drug misuse (qualitative disorder) Drug Abuse is: 1) a behavioral disorder with an indication of a genetic predisposition. It is often manifested during childhood (0-5 years) when a caretaker or parent allows a child to consume large quantities of sugar or comfort foods, snacks, and medicine. Regardless, it typically begins the first time that someone is introduced to drugs that tdrugs is normal human behavior in the Electro-Chemical Age today. 2) typically a teaching or instructional deficiency; it has been known to occur prior to the war on drugs, but today, it occurs because the WOD doesn't allow for latitude when using drugs. The most common way that drugs are abused is by overdosing. When someone first learns to use recreational drugs, the lack of any formal education prompts them to abuse drugs, particularly those who are not used to drugs. The incidence of drug abuse was reported to drop during the mid-80s due to Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign. The campaign. Rather than instruction to children for warding off drug pushers, the sloagan has been used by teens and adults as the response if someone asks them if they are using drugs rather than offering them. The Clinton Administration grew wise to this and began a new prevention tactic: Drug Abuse Education and Drug Resistence Education. Although the idea is heading in the right direction, irrational fear keeps Drug Use Education from surfacing until now. ISN'T USE THE PRECURSOR TO ABUSE? It can be, but only if there is an external trigger. Drug Use Education negates those triggers by instruction. For example, consider this example: if Carl goes out drinking with his friends on Friday night after work, he might start drinking at home if his wife Betty and he are having relationship problems. Since Carl's camraderie with his friends is a pleasant experience, his subconcious might drive him to a liquor store so he can bring home the good spirits he had with his buddies. To Betty, Carl bought the booze just so he can get drunk and avoid her. The more Carl drinks, the angrier Betty gets, and the angrier Betty gets, the more Carl drinks. However, DUE maintains that the consumption of all psycho-active substances must be stopped at the first sign of a domestic problem. Until the problem is resolved, Carl should not be drinking, especially if his drinking is part of the problem with his relationship. Betty must be clear to state her problem. DUE specifically stresses that regardless whether or not two people are using recreational or other drugs, every household should set aside at least 15 minutes per week to discuss aspects of the relationship that may need to be adjusted. HOW DOES DRUG ABUSE TYPICALLY START? When a baby starts to respond to the mother (or father or other primary caretaker) there is an enormous sense of pride and fulfillment that the caretaker (especially new mothers) tend to over-react. She will begin a process of pampering, forgetting that discipline is necessary even for the most well-behaved child. When the child is later confronted with drugs -- perhaps as an adult -- he will link it to those pleasant experiences of the past subconsciously. Fear and ignorance spawned by the WOD does not prepare an individual for Drug use does not characterize a person, but rather it is a term that describes a behavior in which drugs are correctly administered.

	PATIENT (SELF) The most common form of drug abuse is self afflicted. Although it is still commonly believed that a patient intentionally abuses drugs to bring about harm, this is atypical behavior. To the contrary, the majority of drug abusers are probably "would-be self-medicators" who are doing the best they can to survive with little knowledge how to use drugs correctly. Whether someone believes they are using or abusing drugs for recreational purposes, it still might point to a medical condition. For example: if a person is not able to function sexually without a drug, does that mean that they are using the drug for recreational purposes or for medical reasons? There is no answer today because no one has seriously investigated this.
	PARENT OR GUARDIAN It is very common for a parent or guardian to abuse drugs while administering them to a child or disabled person. If the parent or guardian has no knowledge about the substance or no medical background the sufficiently allows them to know what they are doing, their actions might be well-intended. While we are still in a WOD which breeds ignorance, we cannot prosecute a parent or guardian, even if they have medical validation since it is impossible to state what is well-intended behavior and what is not. Zero tolerance can place a parent or guardian in prison for a very long time.
	PHYSICIANS The WOD is brutal on physicians who prescribe Schedule II through IV medication to patients, even though that it is their job. The Prescription Drug Monitoring Program (PDMP) in many states is designed to perform the work of the physician, autonomously assuring that the drugs and the dose are accurate, yet that's not ways what they do. In many cases, the physician will not prescribe a psycho-active drug simply because a person fits a stereotype. African-Americans, Hispanics, and gay / lesbians are the three groups most likely to substitute an illicit drug for one that's FDA-approved, simply because physicians fears prescribing medication to treat a disorder will be abused. It is discrimination imposed by the government.
