Best answer:

Answer by Gary B
It is MUCH better to not get hooked in the first place, than to try to get “unhooked”. In other words DARE is better than rehab,

Since the drugs really screw up your sense of reason, much damage is done BEFORE the user finally gets to the point that rehab will help. In fact, may junkies DIE (OD or get killed) before they ever reach the point of wanting rehab.

And note, The patient must WANT to go to rehab. Just tying somebody up and dropping them at rehab does NO good. You can’t FORCE a person to change their mind.
