"Oh she takes care of herself. She can wait if she wants. She's ahead of her time. Oh and she never gives out. And she never gives in. She just changes her mind..."
-- Billy Joel's "She's Always A Woman To me" 
Life is full of emotional difficulties and some people just don’t have the inner strength to face the challenges that comes their way. Study shows that women are almost twice likely as men to experience depression that commonly would lead to addiction. Many women with drug and alcohol problems have an underlying depression that they mistakenly try to control or hide their depressive symptoms through alcohol or drugs.
Going for a drug rehab, however, can help most women and drug addiction. In addition, it is important for member of the family to increase their awareness of the appropriate treatment information, so that they can seek an early and suitable drug treatment for their loved one.
Drug addiction, as victims would describe it: Is just like going through the motions where they don’t know how to stop; they couldn’t stop even if they wanted to stop. It’s like they are on automatic pilot, they’re up, there’s smoke, just like that.
