If your answer is 90%, unfortunately you're right. That 's a disturbing statistic when you take into consideration that today over 11 million young people have problems with drinking and drugs, and only 15% of them are getting the help they need.
If you think that someone you care about is addicted to drugs or alcohol, recognizing the problem is the first step in getting help.
Many people think they can kick the problem on their own, but that rarely works. Unfortunately, overcoming an addition is not easy. Quitting drugs or drinking is probably going to be one of the hardest things. Most people who try to kick a drug or alcohol problem need professional assistance or a treatment program to do so.
