Addiction to Zenachlor—Drug Issues from A to Z

Abstract

As most professionals involved in drug education would agree, drug taking is an extremely complex phenomenon involving numerous disciplines. We live in a profound chemical culture and it is obvious that drug abuse is pervasive in our society. Moreover, drugs are very controversial and mean different things to different people. To further complicate matters, drug-related research is often inconclusive and frequently contradictory. It is thus not surprising that almost everyone in the field has his or her own set of beliefs about the phenomenon of drug abuse. These beliefs are usually firmly held and often highly biased. This article contains a listing and brief discussion of numerous interrelated psychosocial issues which appear to be necessary for a thorough drug education program. While admittedly biased, these topics appear to be among the main ones currently identified in the field. The issues addressed may provide fresh insights or stimulate fruitful discussion. Some may cause annoyance and be disputed—such is the nature of controversial topics.
