Why Prescription Drug Abuse For Boomers?
Many experts attribute this abuse to a history of drug use that can be connected back to adolescence for a good percentage of baby boomers when there was a great deal of abuse of alcohol and drugs much more so than other generations. As they now near retirement age they have many issues to deal with from work stress to money problems to relationship issues. Combine the societal and psychological issues with access to medication that can alter their moods and you have an opportunity for many to take advantage of the euphoric feelings of prescription drugs. Our main concern at Mark Houston Recovery is not how you got here but how to get you back to where you should be. Back to a life free of addiction and a life full of hope and promise.
