Faces of Drug Addiction (warning graphic photos) #drugabuse #meth

These photos speak for themselves, doing methamphetamine will change your life forever!





The above imagery paints a harrowing picture of how devastating the use of various methamphetamines can be. Think we're being overly dramatic? Think again. Meth has been called the world's most dangerous drug and many U.S. cities, particularly across the Midwest, now consider it the most serious drug problem they face. In 2009, the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Administration (SAMHSA) released findings concluding that some 1.2 million Americans over the age of twelve had abused methamphetamine in the last 12-month period. A year later, a report published by the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH) indicated some 13 million people were thought to have abused methamphetamine during their lives.

  2. Addiction is a really serious problem that should not be neglected by the government. If it is left untreated, it will cause a premature death.

  3. There are numerous reasons to give to the Cenikor Foundation of drug addiction treatment, but the best reason is helping people become responsible citizens free of substance abuse. Cenikor gladly accepts gifts of cash, appreciated securities and gifts from retirement plans all help those achieve better health and better lives. There are many ways to give, including memorials and honorariums.
