Graying Addicts
The age of addicts seeking treatment is rising at an alarming rate.
Drug addiction is often seen as a young person's disease. Maybe that's why we focus so much time and money on programs warning pre-teens and teens about the dangers of drugs. But the results of a new study show that we should be focusing more attention on the pre-retirement set.
The number of people aged 50 or over who admitted to treatment for drug abuse nearly doubled between 1992 and 2008, according to a new government study.
"These findings show the changing scope of substance abuse problems in America," agency administrator Pamela S. Hyde said in a statement. "The graying of drug users in America is an issue for any programs and communities providing health or social services for seniors."
While alcohol is still the leading cause of admissions in this age group, what was surprising were the increases in those seeking treatment for heroin, cocaine and marijuana, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration reported. Of those seeking treatment, only one-fourth started their drug use after age 25.
