Drug abuse has always been an ever growing menace and is one of the leading causes of death among young people. It is widely known that drug or substance abuse is dangerous in many ways due to the fact that certain substances have specific effects on a person’s mental and physical state. Thus, they are more prone to commit life threatening actions or neglect their basic will to live.

In the book, “Seek Help or Die Trying: Surviving Drug Abuse,” author Esther Morgan depicts the hazardous effects of drug abuse through the true stories of several victims. Aside from telling the stories of the victims, it also contains the long and difficult processes each victim underwent on the road to recovery.

The greatest horror of substance abuse is the negative effects it has on a person and how their problems affect those close to them. There are ways to identify a victim of substance abuse by paying attention to the person’s state of mind and changes in behavior.

It may help to know a few characteristics of the stages of addictions. In the first stage, an addict develops an increased tolerance of their drug of choice. In the second stage, there are changes in their lifestyle and social decay. This leads to legal and financial problems. They will begin showing obvious health problems. In the late stage, there is ethical breakdown, impaired thinking, jealousy, fears, etc. At this point, an addict will choose recovery or death.
