“What are the Harmful Consequences of Drug Use?” : http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/hc-ps/pubs/adp-apd/straight_facts-faits_mefaits/harmful-torts-eng.php#harmful covers the BEHAVIOUR.

The next page “What is Canada’s Drug Strategy?” discusses about the PREVENTION too.

Treatment, eh?! http://www.drugabuse.gov/DrugPages/Treatment.html might help.

I think this article: “The evolutionary origins and significance of drug addiction” might help ya too…

http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1174878/

Most importantly,”Drugs distribution and use in ancient environments” will give you a clear picture about the ancient substance abuse.

But I betcha, to trace the origin is an impossible stuff … 🙁

Ahhhh that National Center for Biotechnology Information article has everything ya want! 🙂 Happy “papering” 😀
