You’ve probably heard someone say that they have an addictive personality. If you were confused by what they meant, never fear because a new study had nailed down what exactly that means. The study was conducted in order to examine how best to prevent adolescents from experimenting with alcohol. Basically, the researchers were able to isolate four personality traits which play a major role in a person becoming addicted to drugs or alcohol. It’s not to say that only people with the following personality traits will become drug addicts, far from it in fact. However, those who identify with the traits were more likely to develop substance abuse issues. It’s important for people who have a problem with drugs or alcohol to get help from an addiction treatment facility as soon as possible.The first personality trait which was linked to substance abuse was people who feel helpless. This is a broad category because people can feel helpless for a variety of different reasons. It could be an issue with a family member or friend. It could stem from work or a relationship. Regardless of what causes these feelings of helplessness, people all seem to gravitate towards having a few drinks to calm down a little bit. Eventually those couple of drinks turn into a lot more and before you know it, you have a serious problem with alcohol. Helplessness and depression are ugly cousins and can both factor into a person’s drinking.Being impulsive is another personality trait which can lead to substance abuse issues. Impulsivity means that you act before you think. This is very common when it comes to food. Drinking is another aspect where being impulsive is detrimental. Someone may decide to start drinking on an impulse before thinking about the consequences. They may have work or school early the next morning but they act first rather than thinking. Being impulsive can also be a sign of attention disorders such as ADHD.Anxiety is another trait which can drive someone to drink. It’s completely natural to worry, everyone does it. However, when worrying grows to consume your every waking moment, people often turn to drinking in order to control their emotions. Or rather, achieve the allusion of control. Someone’s anxiety may grow less when they drink, but it often comes back even stronger when they sober up. This can lead to someone drinking more and more as a form of escape.Thrill-seeking is the fourth and final personality trait associated with substance abuse. It’s certainly fun to drink, ask any college student. However, those who drink are seeking to have new experiences and the use the alcohol as the fuel to do so. Drinking is initially enticing because it is illegal to do so until you are 21 years old. Young adults who drink before coming of age do so in part because it’s against the rules. They associate drinking as a thrilling activity even after turning 21.

There aren’t too many drugs out that have had as much influence on popular culture as LSD. The main ingredient in LSD is lysergic acid diethylamide, a chemical derived from the ergot fungus found growing on grain and rye. Acid, as it’s called on the streets, is a psychedelic drug which seriously alters a user’s perception of reality. These experiences are known as “trips” and they often include both physical and auditory hallucinations. Each trip is different and depends completely on the location and mindset of the person involved. Most users describe seeing colors more vividly and inanimate objects having a wavy texture.LSD ingratiated itself in pop culture beginning in the early 1960’s thanks in part to bands such as The Beatles and prominent author Aldous Huxley, who became heavily involved in LSD after moving to Hollywood, California. The drug was mostly used in counter-culture movements for creative, spiritual, or recreational purposes. There are hundreds of myths and urban legends surrounding the drug, many of which evolved through smear campaigns of the past. On such myth, that LSD is retained in the spinal fluid of the user for the rest of their life, is simply not true.Acid is all fun and games until someone has a bad trip. One of the most interesting aspects of LSD is that the mindset of the user plays an integral role in how the drug will take effect. Those who use acid in a depressed or sad state will see their trip act as a reflection of their mood. Those who take the drug in an unfamiliar or strange setting are also more likely to experience a bad trip as your surroundings are an important part of how the mind is effected by the drug. Acid is also one of the longest lasting drugs as trips can reach up to 12 hours in length depending on the dosage. Many users describe having a poor sense of time and reality when on LSD. The dangers of LSD are not within the drug itself, as there have been no reported deaths from an LSD overdose. However, LSD does inhibit a person’s ability to think clearly and make rational decisions, so the risk of personal injury via accidents is quite high. That’s why many who choose to experiment with acid have a responsible person with them who is not on the drug just in case something should happen.LSD is one of the most powerful, yet misunderstood drugs. Anyone struggling with substance abuse to either drugs or alcohol should contact the Drug Detox Helpline in Newark, NJ as soon as possible. ...read more

I prefer handcrafted personal care products simply because I know exactly what's in it. Regardless if I made it or not. I've tried everything for my problematic skin and nothing has worked as great as handmade personal care products. Hand Made soap does not strip the natural oils from your skin and has all its naturally made glycerin.Vegetable glycerin is a powerful humectant that promotes the retention of moisture. A glycerin soap bar, left out in a humid shower room will form little beads of water, proof it draws moisture. Commercial Soap can be drying. The glycerin has been removed and a bit may be added back in, but for the most part sold to lotion and cream manufacters. Most Commercially made soap is actually detergent with high chemical and petroleum content.People who suffer from skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema and sensitive skin often find immediate relief after they switch to hand made soap. ...read more
