Getting over an opioid addiction takes time and determination, but with the right support and resources, those struggling with opioid addiction can recover and move forward with their lives.

An underlying cause often brings about addiction. Mental disorders can lie at the center, such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder or anxiety disorder.

This ensures that after treatment is complete, the patient will not fall back on old practices.

Bel Air, Maryland Addiction and Treatment
For the past decade, Maryland's rate of drug use and abuse has significantly increased. The overdose rate is currently higher than the national average. This epidemic is due to the many industries where manual labor is required. As soon as prescription opioids were more readily accessible a large part of manual workers started using–and eventually abusing–the painkillers.
Harford County, MD, a vibrant community known for its scenic beauty and rich history, has faced significant challenges related to substance abuse in recent years. Between 2020-2024, the county witnessed a 15% increase in opioid-related treatment admissions and a staggering 25% rise in fentanyl-related overdose deaths. Cocaine abuse cases also saw a 10% uptick, while methamphetamine-related incidents were 20% higher compared to other Maryland counties.
