s a major cause of elevated anxiety levels.
  • Leveling off of patient admissions for painkillers and other prescription drug abuse suggests the economy may be turning around  

"People recovering from substance addiction at Cliffside are apparently beginning to feel that the economy is showing signs of recovery," said Richard Taite, Chief Executive Officer of Cliffside Malibu.  "I anticipate that in 2011 we will see a reduction in the proportion of admitted patients seeking treatment for dependence on prescription drugs."

Dr. Georgina Smith, Program Director of Cliffside Malibu adds, "In recent years we have noticed a higher percentage of our patients expressing anxiety over the state of the economy, and we have treated a record high number of people addicted to prescription pills, which can be misused to mask feelings of anxiety."
