1. Skin

Substance abuse rehab stops people from using because it wants them to have a chance to recover their normal complexion.  This is a time that all the different acne that people have can go away.  This also means that a lot of the people who have skin issues could see more scarring or cracking skin.  You have to get treatment if your skin is going crazy, or you might have your suspicions confirmed when you notice a friend has terrible skin that is getting worse. It can be painful, and it might stop you from going in public.

2.  The Meth Mouth

You might have bad teeth because of how many drugs you have done, and they could be stained by alcohol.  They call it meth mouth on the street, and it is something that you need to have corrected as soon as possible. You could have permanent damage done to your teeth because there is usually so much acid in the drugs or alcohol that you are using.

3. Bad Teeth

Your teeth will be stained, but you could also form many more cavities and have a problem with the way that your teeth feel in your mouth.  Your teeth could start to get looser, and your gums will start to recede because of all the drugs or alcohol that you have consumed.  This will continue until your teeth get very loose or fall out.

4. Bad Breath

Your breath will be terrible, and it will be obvious to anyone that gets close to you.  This is different from normal bad breath because it almost never goes away. You just need to be sure that you have started to recover and gone to the dentist to have your teeth cleaned and repaired so that you can solve the problem of the bad breath that you have had.

5. Hair Loss

Your hair will start to fall out because you do not have enough nutrients in your system.  This could cause your hair to thin out a lot, and it will also cause you to feel like you cannot style your hair because you do not have enough hair to style.  This could also extend to your nails that start to get very brittle and crack easily.

Someone who is trying to make a change to their life needs to be aware of the signs of drug use because it can make their hair, skin, and nails look terrible in a very short period of time.
Alcohol consumption is horrible for your skin, hair, nails and overall health. The faster you stop abusing alcohol the faster your body will recover.
