A key part of understanding opioid and heroin addiction is that it triggers an individual\u2019s involuntary responses – this chronic need restructures the brain. The result is poor stress management, lapses in judgment, ability to learn and retain information, and behavioral impulses.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”\/understanding-addiction\/” button_text=”Learn More” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”3.0.98″ custom_margin=”||50px|”][\/et_pb_button][et_pb_button _builder_version=”3.0.97″][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”3.0.97″ background_color=”#9cc8d3″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text background_layout=”dark” _builder_version=”3.0.97″ text_font=”||||||||” text_orientation=”center” max_width=”50%” module_alignment=”center” custom_margin=”50px||10px|” custom_margin_phone=”30px|80px||80px” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|desktop”]
Clinical studies have led us to believe that 80% of today\u2019s heroin users were first addicted to prescription painkillers. A recent surge in heroin use is largely tied to the regulation of painkillers. This results in heroin abuse being an inexpensive option for those who were first addicted to opioids through painkillers.<\/p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”\/opioid-addiction-symptoms\/” button_text=”Learn More” button_alignment=”center” _builder_version=”3.0.98″ custom_margin=”||50px|”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”3.0.97″ background_image=”https:\/\/www.methadonetreatmenttoday.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/01\/get-the-real-you-back-1.jpg” parallax=”on” parallax_method=”off” custom_padding=”112px|0px|114px|0px”][et_pb_row use_custom_width=”on” custom_width_px=”684px” background_color=”rgba(49,110,144,0.8)” _builder_version=”3.0.97″][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”3.0.97″ parallax=”off” parallax_method=”on”][et_pb_text background_layout=”dark” _builder_version=”3.0.97″ text_font=”||||||||” custom_margin=”|||” custom_padding=”25px|25px||25px”]
