A lot of the brain damage claims are to scare you into not taking drugs!. What they can do is get you arrested , you can lose friends and family!. Put you in situations were you can get killed!. Even kill someone close, that result IS permanent and will make you wish you had brain damage!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Studying the effects of drugs and alcohol on the brain has clearly been one of the most informative and fascinating parts of my work!. I had a sense growing up that drugs and alcohol weren't helpful to my overall health!. I might add, this notion was helped along by getting drunk on a six pack of Michelob and half a bottle of champagne when I was sixteen years old - I was sick for three days!. After that, I've been lucky enough to stay away from drugs and alcohol!. After doing this work there's no way you could get me to do marijuana, heroin, cocaine, methamphetamine, LSD, PCP, inhalants or any more than a glass or two of wine or beer!. These substances damage the patterns in your brain, and without your brain you are not you!.

There is really quite a bit of scientific literature on the physiological effects of drugs and alcohol on the brain!. SPECT Scans have demonstrated a number of abnormalities in substance abusers in brain areas known to be involved in behavior, such as the frontal and temporal lobes!. There are some SPECT similarities and differences between the damage we see caused by the different substances of abuse!. I'll discuss the differences in drug abuse patterns below!. There tends to be several similarities seen among classes of abused drugs!. The most common similarity among drug and alcohol abusers is that the brain has an overall toxic look to it!. In general, the SPECT Scan studies look less active, more shriveled, and overall less healthy!. A "scalloping effect" is common amongst drug abusing brains!. Normal brain patterns show smooth activity across the cortical surface!. Scalloping is a wavy, rough sea-like look on the brain's surface!. I also see this pattern in patients who have been exposed to toxic fumes or oxygen deprivation!. My research assistant says that the drug brains she has seen look like someone poured acid on the brain!. Not a pretty site!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Bill Clinton is noted for being a coke head and he spent his two terms gutting the military and refused to arrest bin laden after the first wtc bombing when he had the chance!.

Bush also is a coke head and thinks God told him to invade Iraq in a dream so you tell me!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
