Drug Rehabilitation
Drug Rehab is an umbrella term for a variety of processes by which a person addicted to a drug stops using that drug. These processes can vary from cold turkey to the use of substitute drugs which do not have the same action upon the state of consciousness as the original drug to which the person was addicted.
Alcohol Addiction
Alcohol Addiction is a chronic disease characterized by a strong craving for alcohol, a constant or periodic reliance on use of alcohol despite adverse consequences, the inability to limit drinking, physical illness when drinking is stopped, and the need for increasing amounts of alcohol to feel its effects.

I really dont know what this thing is called in your place , but here people call it dendrite , its a kind of adhesive glue which people use it stich there shoes and other stuffs , it gives very bad smel. Last week , i saw some guys on street inhaling this thing through a plastic bag , when i went near it gave such a bad smell that i could not even stand there , when asked to them they said this thing called dendrite does not let you fill hungry ,

Of course it does. Deep inhaling can cause death. Long term sniffing can lead to liver disease, kidney failure, damage to bone marrow and the nervous system, to name a few. But if you're starving and there's no food to be had, maybe it seems easier to use this to suppress your appetite. It's sad that kids would come to that.

Even I came to know about this issue prevailing mainly among street children in India. It not only damages ones liver but also cuts out the oxygen supply. A person can live only till 10 years if he is a seriously addicted to dendrite.

I don`t know where you guys are from, I thought that dendrite is only used in my country and ther third world contries, here young children use it, and yes the reason is to make them not feel hungry.
