Drug Use, Misuse, and Abuse Use- Taking a drug correctly for a legitimate medical reason. (taking vicodin prescribed by a doctor for pain after surgery, having a soda or coffee would fit here also) Misuse- Using a legal drug for purposes it is not intended for but will help them feel better (not following instructions-taking more than you should, taking someone’s non-scheduled prescription drug) Abuse- Taking an illegal drug with no prescription to experience the feelings associated with the drug: high, intoxication, etc. (drinking alcohol if under age, shooting heroin at a party, taking someone else’s scheduled prescription drug )

Physical Vs. Psychological Addiction PhysicalPsychological SweatingAnxiety Heart PalpitationsRestlessness Muscle tensionIrritability Difficult breathingInsomnia Tremors or uncontrollable shakingDepression SeizuresParanoia NauseaHallucinations

NARCOTICS/OPIODS Examples: Heroin, Opium, Codeine, Percocet, Morphine, Fentanyl ( a painkiller 100 times stronger than morphine), & many more. Illegal if sold/used for non-medical purposes Most relieve pain Can slow breathing, cause sedation & instant addiction
