[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 633620, member: 14557"] I stumbled to this paper while looking things related to neuroscience and how addictions influence the brain: [url]http://www.hamsnetwork.org/neuroscience.pdf[/url] It gives rather hopeful look to our young addicts and their future: Both drug and alcohol addicts mature out of their addictions. Most of the 20 something addicts will not be addicts when they turn 40. More so with drug addicts but also true with alcoholism (in twenty years after onset of alcoholism two thirds of (American, probably figures are similar also in other countries) alcoholics are fully recovered, half of them are absent and other half drink low risk way according studies of National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism.) This is something good to keep in mind, when things seem so utterly hopeless with our young addicts at times. [/QUOTE]
