Pill popping has become a major part of our lifestyle and culture in Los Angeles.
“Ima pill poppin animal” – it’s the title of a famous song by Rick Ross that surprisingly
applies to many people in Los Angeles, CA today. With the “cool kid” stigma that’s now
associated with mood-enhancing drugs in today’s pop culture, residents of the La La Land
are now relying on prescription drugs more than ever.
Adding to this, so many people in Los Angeles today live the typically busy and fast
pace lifestyle, they often tend to opt for a quick fix whenever they have the slightest
headache.
The result is a society that relies heavily (too much!) on prescription drugs.
Los Angeles Pill Popping Culture Have Become
A Major Problem
Why Is Our Over-Reliance On Prescription Drugs
A Major Issue?
Medical drugs are great, there’s no denying it. They cure illnesses and
improve the quality of life for individuals with serious diseases.
However, there are far too many red flags being raised today because of
prescription drug abuse. According to the National Institute on
Drug Abuse,“52 Million people in the US, over the age of 12, have
used prescription drugs non-medically in their lifetime. It seems
somewhere along the way the lines between medication and pleasure
became blurred, people are no longer able to differentiate between self-
pleasure and self-treatment
Aside from the fact that this over-reliance has resulted in us spending
about $300 billion annually on prescription drugs, more and more
people today are dying from prescription drug abuse . Los Angeles
County Department of Public Health have revealed in their report on
prescription drugs that of the 8,265 drug-related deaths in the state
since 2000, a whopping 60 percent involved prescription drug abuse –
that’s surprisingly more than the amount of deaths caused by illicit
drug use in Los Angeles, CA.
Our over-reliance on prescription drugs is
not only costing us billions, but it’s also
claiming our lives. Just this year pop star
Prince died from an overdose of opioid
fentanyl, a medication that is often used to
prevent pain in certain medical procedures.
News of the star cause of death has drawn a
lot of attention to the opioid abuse epidemic
in America but in reality this has been a
growing problem for years.
Pain relieving medications such as opioids
are to date the most common drugs
prescribed by doctors in Los Angeles. The bad
news is that their long-term effects can result
in serious health issues and addiction. Opioid
medications can be very addiction because
they affect the region of the brain that makes
you “feel good” according to the National
Institute on Drug abuse. For this reason,
many people seek to increase usage and fails
to adhere to their doctor’s recommendations.
Prescription drug addiction affects people in the same way many illicit drugs do. As with most
substance abuse, it’s always best to seek the help of a Los Angeles CA drug addiction treatment center
capable of guiding you or your loved one though the recovery process.
Prescription Drug Abuse Treatment
At BLVD Treatment Centers we offer flexible outpatient drug treatment programs to individuals in Los Angeles
so that they can overcome their addiction without putting their lives on hold. The program allows patients to
remain in close proximity with their family while receiving the professional support they need for recovery. Don’t
hesitate to contact us at 1-866.582.9844 with your questions.
