US Army Spends $117 Million – To Combat Drug Use Among Soldiers.
There are currently over a million soldiers in the US army, many have seen combat and survived to live with what they’ve witnessed. Some soldiers manage to cope, others never do, resorting to the use of drugs and alcohol to numb the pain and somehow kill the visions and voices in their heads. 
Many soldiers suffer from a variety of psychological problems including nightmares, flashbacks, paranoia and irrational anger for these reasons, Alcohol and Drug abuse is quickly becoming a growing problem among returning war vets, with the number of binge drinkers and narco-users nearly doubling in the past six years. Figures suggest that 11 out of every 1,000 soldiers suffered from alcohol abuse problems in the first have of 2009.

These numbers do not surprise me at all, I thought
they may be more like 1 out of 10,with all the easy access drugs and alcohol that produce a euphoria that in minutes can take you from being depressed and lonely to a feeling of being on top of the world,the problem is it is not reality it is a lie,
as real as it may seem.this world and all it’s changing values leave many with feeling that they are lacking,instant euphoria will be progressive especially this day and age. the sense of euphoria
and self esteem can be found with complete abstinence in Newport Beach Ca. we are planting seeds happiness is this
