What Are the Biggest Addiction Problems Seen in Texas Addiction Help Facilities?
Although drug abuse is a big problem, alcohol abuse is probably even worse.
- Almost 25% of the people in Texas did some binge drinking in the last year. In other words, they don’t just have a couple of beers, they drink enough to get drunk. Enough to stop them from driving legally, and safely.
- Also, nearly one in ten Texans qualify as being addicted to alcohol or being alcohol abusers.
- In 2011, the University of Texas Austin was voted # one party school in the U.S. There are nearly 5,000 universities and colleges in the U.S., so that’s saying a lot.
What is a party school? A school where the students are so focused on drinking, drugs and partying that they probably miss classes every month because their drunk or hungover, their grades suffer, there are more accidents and injuries, rapes and other sexual assaults, and all around bad decision making. Not what you would want or expect from a college student who is there to get an education that will set him up for the future.
Unless he’s going to be an alcoholic or drug addict – hard to make a living doing those things without also being a dealer.
To be on the top of the list of party schools, you can be pretty sure that the entire culture of the state is oriented towards drinking. Kids whose parents teach them about drugs and alcohol are 50% less likely to drink or take drugs. So, chances are, fewer adults in Texas think alcohol is a problem than in some other states.

What About Drugs? Are There a Lot of People Needing Addiction Help in Texas for Drugs?
Yes. The problems are mostly with marijuana, stimulants (cocaine, methamphetamine and prescription drugs), heroin, and opiates other than heroin – like prescription painkillers, sedatives, tranquilizers and so on.
About 7,000 people a year get addiction help in Texas for heroin and stimulants.
But the most serious drug problem in Texas is with prescription painkillers. The number of people suffering from OxyContin addiction, Vicodin addiction, methadone addiction, hydrocodone addiction – just to mention a few – is astounding. About one in twenty people in Texas used prescription painkillers for non-medical reasons in the last year. That’s about 2 ½ million people!
