Substance abuse is a very complex problem, which is characterized by uncontrolled drug craving, irrational and anti social behavior. Drug abuse for most of the time will have devastating consequences on the mental and physical health of a person. Although substance abuse begins as part of unpaid act but very soon the abuser loses his grip over the situation and becomes completely dependent on it. Since drug abuse can affect brain function, it can create havoc in one’s life. Almost every society faces these types of problems, Samaritans can help and identify the victims and lend a hand so that they can get back to mainstream.
The nature of the problem is so complicated no two individual can benefit from single program. Each one of them has to be looked after differently, the psychological, social, emotional aspects everything has to be brought in together to design an integrated program that will help the patient to join the mainstream of the society. Many time these individual also get entrapped in legal problems so help must be provided in that front as well.
