If parents find their child addicted to drugs, then serious conversations, threats and requests will be of little benefit. Most likely, addiction has already caused mental and physical dependence. Therefore, it is important for parents to contact specialists in a timely manner to treat their child.
Addiction treatment
Addiction to drugs dramatically changes a person. Yesterday's calm child becomes uncontrollable, aggressive, irritable, quick-tempered. He ceases to control his behavior and emotions, to realize the deplorable situation and the consequences of his habit. The addict has the illusion that he can get rid of his addiction at any time.
Drug addiction requires the obligatory timely intervention of narcologists to prescribe appropriate treatment. Parents of children who use drugs should seek help from a narcological hospital. Comprehensive qualified drug treatment is to prevent the harmful effects of drug use on the child's body, to ease his health and get rid of drug addiction.
Depending on the financial situation in the family, you can entrust the treatment of the child to a commercial clinic. As a rule, modern and effective methods of getting rid of addiction are used in such hospitals. It is believed that private clinics can afford a higher quality of service and treatment than government drug treatment centers. Commercial centers use a more intensive course of therapy, and therefore the length of a child's stay in such a clinic is shorter than in a municipal narcological clinic. Also, paid institutions are distinguished by a more stringent regime, completely excluding the use of drugs by patients during treatment.
Registration of drug addiction
In a number of cases, referral to drug treatment centers entails registration with drug addiction. This circumstance presupposes the restriction of some of the civil rights of the addict. Registration for drug addiction imposes a prohibition on engaging in certain types of labor activity, driving a car, and difficulties may arise in obtaining various positive characteristics and certificates. Anonymous access to a drug treatment center can be an alternative option for registration.
Registration of drug addictions is prohibited without the consent of the parents of a minor child. Also, it may not be carried out in cases of self-seeking help, when the patient does not have serious mental disorders, and also expresses a voluntary and sincere desire to get rid of addiction.
There are specialized public charitable and various non-profit organizations that provide psychological support and assistance to parents of drug addicted children. In such societies, it is possible to get advice from specialists who will give the necessary instructions and recommendations. Parents can exchange experiences and get advice from other families in which children suffer from drug addiction.
