Drug And Alcohol Addiction In Long Beach, California
Long Beach is Southern California’s third-largest (and Los Angeles County’s second-largest) city. The area is well-known for its surf-perfect beaches and party culture, as well as the drug abuse rampant in those scenes.
In the LA-Long Beach-Santa Ana metropolitan area, 15.4% of the population has abused illicit drugs annually. An estimated 9% of Long Beach residents could be classified as having a substance use disorder. Treatment centers of both the inpatient and outpatient variety can help. The most commonly abused substances are:
Heroin And Prescription Opioid Abuse In Long Beach
Though the rate of overdose deaths in Long Beach is lower than the national average, the numbers are still alarmingly high. Prescription Opioid deaths in Long Beach are higher than that of surrounding cities in Los Angeles County. Because the risk of long-term Opioid abuse increases considerably after 5 days of regular use, many California doctors now prescribe lower quantities of painkillers.
The crackdown on prescription medication has spawned a sharp rise in Heroin addiction as people seek cheaper and more easily available means to feel “normal.” Heroin and Opioid addictions can be some of the harshest addictions because of their “hold” over people. These substances hijack the pleasure center of the brain, forcing addiction sufferers to seek out increasing amounts of the drug to get the same high.
We’re definitely seeing an uptick of heroin in Long Beach, and more young people are using it.
Vicodin and OxyContin are commonly abused Opiates but cost $40 daily on the black market (compared to $10 for Heroin). Due to increased demand, the amount of Heroin seized at the Southwest border has tripled in recent years.

Alcoholism In Long Beach
Though other substances have higher addiction rates, alcohol remains one of the most commonly abused substances in California. Long Beach’s party scene contributes to this, and alcohol is often abused alongside other illicit substances. Significant alcohol abuse continues to be a public concern for Long Beach residents.
Until very recently, the second-leading cause of premature death and disability was alcohol-related. Violent crime, vehicle crashes, emergency department visits, hospitalizations, sexual and domestic assault, robbery, homicide, and accidental death generally accompany high rates of alcohol abuse. Rates of binge drinking in the region are high; they resulted in an estimated 4,420 motor vehicle crashes; 6,338 injuries; 63,424 emergency room visits; and 2,800 deaths in Los Angeles County in one year.

California also maintains a number of programs that ensure adequate detox care and rehab services are available to its residents.

Starting in inpatient treatment and moving to outpatient recovery, people can learn how to stay active and develop new passions while maintaining sobriety.
