Look at these three people. They all look healthy and successful, right? At first glance, they all look like the type of employee you’d be proud to hire. But what you don’t know is that all three of these individuals are abusing drugs. Surprised? It’s more common that you think…

…The young executive, fresh out of college and struggling under a mountain of debt was just looking for a way to relieve stress…

…The emergency room doctor spends her day surrounded by unimaginable horrors. Her problem began when she started looking for an escape…

…The construction worker was injured doing his job. In his rush to get back to work he began using pain killers and quickly became dependant on them….

Substance abuse can affect anyone, it does not belong to the domain of the unemployed lay-about. In fact, 9.4 million of the 16.4 million illicit drug users and 10.1 million of the 15 million heavy alcohol users hold full-time jobs.

These people don’t mean for substance abuse to take over their lives. Most of them just don’t think of the potential dangers of using drugs or abusing alcohol.
