Financial Crisis – 25% Rise in Alcohol & Drugs
Posted by admin on November 6th, 2009

Dr Neil Brener, medical director at London’s Priory Clinic which has treated many celebrities for drug issues, said London’s city workers were those most likely to suffer cocaine problems. "Certainly people working in the financial industry appear to be much more likely to run into problems," he the Home Affairs Select Committee. "They have very high pressure jobs and they often start using increasing amounts of alcohol and cocaine when under high stress, not so much as a reward system but as a system to try and keep themselves going in highly pressured situations."
The Home Office says Britain has the highest reported cocaine use of any country in the European Union, official figures reporting that 12,354 adults were now receiving treatment for cocaine use. According to government figures, 3 percent of all 16 to 59-year-olds used cocaine last year, the highest number since statistics were first collected in 1996, meaning nearly a million people had taken the drug. However, while the drug’s use has risen, its street price and purity has fallen, law enforcement and charity groups say. Serratt said anxiety and depression were the two major causes of drug abuse, and both had been abundant in London in the past year due to increasing stress. However, it had taken about nine months for the effect of the recession to filter through.
"Bankers, lawyers, accountants — the higher functioning addicts — they’re used to working hard and playing hard so their stamina for stress and drug taking is higher than other categories of people. It just takes time for them to hit rock bottom," he said. "They may have been made redundant nine months ago, but it’s taken time for them to just spiral out of control." However many companies were still not doing enough to help their staff, he warned.
"Most of them do not even have a drug or alcohol policy," he said. "A lot of firms, particularly with high performers, turn a blind eye and most of their staff, if not all, have had no training in how to spot it and how to deal with it."
