		<description><![CDATA[Drug Addiction is the excessive, and thus injurious, use of certain substances. People can get easily addicted towards drugs because such substances give them temporary relief from their physical and emotional suffering. It is very hard for one to believe that a loved one has fallen victim to drug addiction, and at times most people do not know what to do because there is a lack of adequate knowledge on how to handle such a problem.

		<description><![CDATA[This is the question heard every day by intake counselors on the phone: how can I help a drug addict in my life?  The answer is actually quite simple: by making this call, you already are. The key is to realize and understand the drug addict is an addict and needs help.  This is sort of your own little period of facing denial.  Then you call up a center or helpline and ask for help and the journey begins.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Helping a crack addict is an extremely long, hard, and painful task.  

You should be aware of that before you try to help.  The crack addict is someone you love or you wouldn’t be trying to help them, but that love is the very aspect of helping him that will cause you the most pain.

		<description><![CDATA[The initial act of approaching your loved one about a drug problem may well be one of the hardest things you have ever done.  

First you need to try to determine if the loved one is even aware of his addiction or not.  It is quite possible that the addict, through denial, does not think he has a drug problem.  Another possibility is that he knows he has a problem, but doesn’t want to do anything about it; or he is aware of his problem and can’t do anything about it because his addiction is so strong.
