A major denominator in all young people and celebrity deaths is drug abuse, an illness that can lead to depression, personality changes, insomnia, poor relationship, and impaired judgment. In a few of these instances, medical care becomes somewhat inadequate and questionable, and self-medication was common. Deaths in various instances were shrouded in obscurity due to attempts to cover-up.

Some patients often do polypharmacy using many drug stores, numerous physicians, and several aliases to acquire medication. In addition, denial increases while addiction worsens.

Prescription drugs, particularly, now result to more deaths than cocaine and heroin. All these drugs can result to respiratory and nervous system depression. They are a deadly combination with barbiturates and sedatives as well as alcohol.

As human beings, it is normal to experience the feeling of sadness, fear, anger, depression, low self-esteem, guilt etc. Despite the fact that it is normal and natural to experience such emotions and feelings, they can actually be a cause of concern when they create and accumulate all sorts of problems such as addictions. It is actually a way to find relief from any feelings the person might be experiencing, it is also a way of escaping certain reality and get distracted or entertained. Those that suffer from substance addictions at times aren't even aware of the feelings given that they have actually been subconsciously repressing the feelings for a long period of time, that they even forget what it's like to experience something. Several people think of such things as alcohol and drugs whenever someone talks about addictions. However in reality, we have many other kinds of addictions such as: addiction to shopping, food, alcohol, cigarettes, computers, sex and gambling.

Dr. Horton points to NLP and Hypnosis and underutilized therapies in the treatment of addictions. How do Neurolinguistic Programming (NLP) and Hypnotherapy help you to recover from addiction?

This helps the person to be able to heal and gain knowledge of new positive and healthier ways to manage these emotions and way of thinking, and develop proper habits.
