Have you ever thought of what could be the most powerful incentive for a person to give up drugs? Of course, this is something individual fopr every person. One might stop using drugs due to the provoking admonitions of relatives, the second migh fall in love and make the move for a loved one, third, might survive near-death state of an overdose and realize that life is the most valuable.

Among these incentives, experts often highlight the one, which usually is a consequence of the disease - addiction. This is the birth of a child. Although for the young drug users it not as effective, but among them there are many examples where the birth of a son or daughter puts the bullet in his drug addiction career. Woment who are on drugs for a long time, often become pregnant and do not realize that they are becoming mothers. Prior to giving birth, if they reach such course, they believe the unborn child is a burden. But then everything changes.

Many young drug addicts quit drugs foever after giving birth. The maternal instinct, which is very difficult to blunt, makes this to happen. Seeing, feeling their child, feeling his helplessness and need of constant protection and care, the minds of many drug addicts are scrapped. They understand that they should choose between drugs or a child.

Unfortunately, the frequent use of drugs during pregnancy adversely affects the health of the fetus, and thus, the young mothers get depressed by realizing that they ruined not only their life, but the life of a baby by starting to take drugs. Often it is more stimulating to a healthy lifestyle, but sometimes, contrary, it provokes a breakdown.

At this point the help of a qualified psychiatrist and a narcologist is very important, in order not to return to the past and secure a positive stimulus in the mind of the patient. Quitting drugs at home, probably possible, however, drug addiction is a disease, and medical monitoring is urgently needed. Especially because giving birth by itself gives a huge strain on the body, already weakened by taking drugs.

But, unfortunately, in most cases, the birth of a baby does not touch the drug addicted mothers in any way. They still continue to "inject", taking alcohol and other stimulants. In severe cases, it is meaningless to ask whether an addict will quit drugs, when he/she will have a son or daughter. In these cases, everything is so neglected that for the drug addicts nothing but another dose exists. Hence, it causes - the sale of children, their death from hunger and cold because of the carelessness of "parents" and the completion of children's homes. God forbid that any child on earth will know what it is like to have a drug-addicted parents!
