"SIGNS AND SYMPTOMS OF DRUG ADDICTION"
Rep. Act No. 8423 [ Traditional and Alternative Medicine Act of 1997,
Dec. 9, 1997] authored by Senator Flavier,et.al., recognizes and legalizes
traditional healers [Sec. 4, (h), RA No. 8423] performing ,divine/spiritual
healing, among others. This modality of healing discovers that majority of
the addicts have incurable but correctible back misalignment. The linkage
of this back misalignment to addiction in some misaligned people ,
althought revolutionary and unprecedented in the medical field is actually
a good research topic of the newly instituted Philippine Institute of
Traditional and Alternative Health Care [Secs. 5, 6(a), RA No. 8423] which
might someday curb the spiraling cases of addiction in our
midst.
Actually, addicts can be people of all ages who are dependent on
illegal and prohibited drugs or who are using addictive medical drugs
prescribed by their physicians.
The earlier an addiction is discovered
the better the chance the addict of recovery.
The general signs and and
symptoms of addictions are the following:
First, Behaving out
of character when there is no obvious explanation.
Second, moods swings,
anxiety, depression, fear, bad temper, lethargy and tiredness.
Third,
unusual laziness and unreliability; poor performance at school or work;
Fourth, neglecting food and appearance;
Fifth, constant snipping, dry
cough and skin peeling around the lips.
Additionally, some specific
symptoms of addiction include the following:
Sixth, pinpoint-size eye
pupils- a sign of heroin and morphine addicts;
Seventh, unsteadiness,
trembling of the limbs and confusion, sometimes resembling drunkenness, are
indicators of tranquilizer dependence.
Eight, red eyes,over-relaxed and
drowsy are the signs of a cannabis user.
Ninth, disoriented or giggly:
telltale behavior of an LSD user and terror during a bad
trip.
Furthermore, some additional signs of addiction to look for,
include the following
Tenth, unusual smells or substance around the
house, tubes of glue, tablets, capsules and powder, greenish-brown tobacco,
homemade cigarette stubs and hypodermic needles;
Eleventh,
uncharacteristic dishonesty- stealing,perhaps to buy drugs;
Twelfth,
changes in the person's circle of friends, attitudes interest; and needle
injection marks and/or bruises on the side of the elbow.
Admittedly,
drugs in the markets have some dangers. Since earliest times man has sought
drugs -external substances that affect the composition or function of
living organs- to relieve distress,discomfort and pain. However, drugs have
hidden dangers arising from the following factual situations:
(1)
Doctors andpatients have increasingly come to believe that treatment
requires prescription of one or more drugs.
but this does have dangers. So
result from poor medical practice, others from misunderstanding between
doctors and pharmaceutical companies and some dangers arise from
errors by the patient.
(2) Some practitioners prescribe drugs too
freely.
(3) The side-effects of the medical drugs.
The State in
protecting the health and safety of its citizenry has taken steps to
regulate and prohibit certain drugs because their corresponding
effects/side effects endanger a lot of people, users or non-users.
Praise
the Lord for discovery of this specific back misalignment with linkage to
addiction.
