All of us have many pleasures in life. These pleasures are responsible for making us forget about our deepest worries while also enable us to think only of happy memories ahead of us. Sadly, many people consider drugs and alcohol as their ultimate pleasure. Without knowing its harmful effects, both drugs and alcohol can destroy a person’s physical and emotional state. They are also responsible for many relationship problems and one good example is having a broken family. One of the many reasons why people still use these prohibited substances despite all the warnings issued by the government and other concerned institutions is the fact that they don’t have any idea that these substances are harmful to one's health and well-being. Lack of information amongst individuals is a primary driver for drug abuse and alcoholism
 
In order to fully understand what substance abuse is, here are some guidelines to identify a drug or alcohol addict:
 
Hostility and Anger
 
People who are under the influence of drugs and alcohol are usually subjected to mood swings and may always seem to be angry. They also lose grip of reality making them do whatever they want. In worst case scenarios, a drug addict can also be violent in such a way that it endangers the lives of the people that surround him/her. Common crimes such as murder and rape are often associated and influenced with these substances.
 
Depression
 
Drug abuse and alcoholism can make a person become too emotional. For every hour that they are not able to use these substances, they feel anxiety and depression. It is as if their world will never be complete without having to take drugs and alcohol at every single moment.
 
Weak Memory
 
Both drugs and alcohol can significantly affect the way you think and decide. In most situations, substance abuse can make a person unable to learn things and also make them easily forget about simple things. Students who use abuse drugs and alcohol will most likely fail their subjects and ultimately drop out from school.
 
Changes in the Body
 
Sudden and unexplainable loss of weight and appetite is an indicator of drug addiction or alcoholism. Drug and alcohol users can also be seen having redness to their eyes due to the chemical reaction brought by the substance.
 
Drug addiction and alcoholism is a severe disease that shouldn’t be taken for granted off. If you think your friend or love one is using and abusing drugs and alcohol, bring him/her immediately to a drug addiction treatment center or an alcohol rehabilitation center. By doing so, you can prevent him/her from doing harm to his/her surroundings and perhaps to himself/herself. While alcoholism drug abuse addiction codependency recovery is quite a long and intricate process, it is still the best way to save a person’s life from completely falling apart.

There are certain common symptoms of addiction like depression, anger, drastic change in mood, loss of appetite and weight loss etc. If you notice someone in your family with all these symptoms get them proper treatment which helps them to get over from these addictions. http://www.pachills.com

This was an excellent article and I am completely supporting your article. Alcohol and drug abuse has become one of the serious issues of every community. The youngsters which are falling in this should be strictly controlled by articles and public awareness. You have intelligently managed to explain the points in a well elaborated manner.
