DRUG ADDICTION AND HELP CARE
D. Sathiya, Dr. Smita Kavatekar and Dr. Preeti Savant
Abstract
Addiction is being overly involved in a habit. Although some habits like drugs, can have detrimental
after-effects, the addiction causes an imbalance and one ends up constantly engaging oneself in a
particular habit because of the satisfaction that comes from them.
Drugs are consumed by people for intoxication and entertainment. Drug addiction is a debilitating
problem that affects both physical and social well-being. This affects the individual, and the community
in many ways. Although we see more and more countries regulating the production, sale, and
consumption of drugs, we also see a rise in drug addiction. The pandemic times have actually fuelled
drug addiction even more. A simple survey conducted suggests that respondents consume drugs to
escape from their problems and over a period of time end up harming themselves. Both the literature
and Survey responses are of the opinion that drug help care websites are useful.
