As people who work in
Citrus Heights drug addiction rehab know all too well, addictions can take a serious toll on the health of the person who uses drugs. For example, a study published in
JAMA reported that people who injected "black tar" heroin in California were at high risk of developing botulism in their injection sites, and that risk stayed high even when people reported that they cleaned their skin before injecting. Only by stopping the abuse did the risk decrease.
If you're addicted, but you have yet to enroll in a Citrus Heights drug treatment center, now might be the best time to do so.
Tips on Being Admitted Into a Drug Detox Program

In order to convince yourself that help is needed, and that programs can help you to recover, consider:
- Learning all you can about addiction

You may find that your willingness to enroll, and your motivation to work hard in recovery, may increase with each step that you take.
