The teenage years are an absolute rollercoaster. With hormones raging and emotions running high, an adolescent's brain is rapidly re-forming itself and working towards what its final form will be when they reach adulthood. Since we know that drugs and alcohol can arrest brain development and harm cognitive ability, it is crucial to guard against substance abuse, and remain vigilant.
The biggest signs that your teenager may be using drugs are sudden or unexpected shifts in their normal routine. Sudden groups of new friends, pulling away or ignoring old ones, and neglecting their physical appearance should give parents pause. Also, a sudden drop in grades and performance at or interest in other school activities can be an indicator as well. And obviously, any found drug paraphernalia is a fool-proof sign that you have a problem on your hands. Given the volatile nature of the teenage years, it's imperative that you choose a treatment program uniquely geared towards teenage addiction, to give them the best chance at recovery.
