A very important topic, a dear friend alerted me to it, where he pointed to a new cause that leads to addiction, a reason that does not need bad friends who offer a drug or narcotic “pills” as a matter of experimentation, and does not need dealers and drug promoters, but on the contrary, it is often Addiction comes as a treatment for a psychological or non-psychological illness, then unfortunately the patient gradually turns into an addict in every sense of the word, addicted with his behavior, his movements, and his request for the drug in various ways and means, and he is never different from another drug addict in anything.

Mostly there are many psychological diseases, the treatment of which requires the use of some sedatives, and often many young people do not want to resort to doctors specialized in psychiatry, and therefore they search for the solution themselves, and often the solution they choose is sedative pills that gradually turn into narcotic pills, To turn the patient after a period of time into a real addict.

There are other cases of young people who resorted to doctors in the private sector, and found what they wanted with these doctors, to repeat the visits after that, in order to seek medicines and strong prohibited pills, only to find themselves in the end in the middle of the addiction path, where it is difficult for them to return to their previous calm state, and it is difficult to treat them from addiction, They start experimenting with all the other, more powerful and destructive species.

Not long ago, I received a call from a respectable woman, who has a young son in the prime of life, who entered into a depression stage due to a traffic accident, which prevented him from walking, and made him sit in a wheelchair, and then his condition relapsed severely after the death of his father, to find himself heavily addicted to sedative pills he gave him A doctor in the private sector, after which the tragedy of this woman began, as her son turned into a real addict, in addition to being a person with a disability, and with him the quiet house turned into something like “hell” for this virtuous mother who does not know how to deal with what looks like a “monster” when she comes to him The state of addiction in the house, he beats and breaks everything he encounters, screams and gets angry constantly, asks for pills, and if he does not find them, he does everything, and he never hesitates to extend his hand to his mother.

“My tragedies never have a solution,” says this woman, and her tragedy continues, and no one intervenes to help her. The police cannot imprison this young man, as he is of the “people of determination,” and she cannot confront him because of her weakness compared to the strength of a young man, even if he is in a chair. It is mobile, and there is no treatment on the horizon except narcotic and sedative pills that increase its addiction.

Her story makes the heart break for her condition, especially since he is her only son, and at the same time he has turned into her only enemy. She cannot complete her story because of the pain and tears that collapse as soon as she begins to tell her tragedy, but she screams and says: My son is a victim.. and I do not want his case to be repeated. For any family, do not rush to resort to sedatives, as it may be a cause of disaster.
