Being close to the Mexican border, El Paso, Texas is a hotspot for drug trafficking, as illicit drugs get smuggled past the border day after day. It’s relatively easy for residents in this area to get their hands on a wide variety of illicit drugs, which has caused substance abuse rates to skyrocket. Opioids, alcohol and marijuana are often abused, with the abuser experiencing both negative physical and mental symptoms afterward.

The road to recovery is paved with obstacles. Relapses are common and — at times — unavoidable without professional help. Fortunately, there are quite a few addiction resources and rehab centers in this city. These professional resources can aid many substance abusers on their journey to sobriety and help them achieve long-lasting results.
