In every country around the world, individuals struggling with drug or alcohol problems need safe places where they can repair the damage done by addiction. They also need to rebuild the skills they will need to live productive and enjoyable lives again. Effective rehabilitation means providing the support, guidance and training in life skills needed to help those who have been addicted achieve these simple goals.Australians are not exempt from the drug problems that plague much of the rest of the world and when they become addicted, they need this support as well. Methamphetamine has long been addicting Australians and pharmaceutical drugs, synthetics and cocaine have grown in popularity in recent years. Of course, alcohol has taken many lives in our country and caused many injuries and broken families. Cannabis remains the most popular drug in the country. While some people still don't think this is an addictive drug, it is responsible for about half the number of people seeking rehabilitation.Even if a person does not himself use drugs, it is very likely that one of his family members or friends does. And the societal costs of drug misuse mean that everyone shares the burden of addiction and overdose deaths. Thus this is a subject that touches every life in Australia. Australians need help to return to healthy sober lives.
