Recognizing Characteristics of Drug Addicts through Hand Analysis Dr. Kanchana Kohombange (Ph.D.) International Hand Analyzing Consultancy - Sri Lanka
Abstract: Recently science has shown that addiction and addictive behavior is not just due to social causes but has their roots in genetics, biological factors, and pharmacological factors as well. However, the consequences of chronic drug use and addiction can be damaging to every aspect of a person’s life. Drug abuse often starts first and then with time it leads to addiction. Addiction affects our brain and behavior. Sometimes long-term drug use can also lead to addiction. When a person is addicted to drugs, he cannot resist the urge to use them. Drug addiction is not about just heroin, cocaine, or other illegal drugs but also alcohol, nicotine, opioid painkillers, and other legal substances or gambling or sex. Apart from this repeated behavior, they don't offer any real benefit that refers to addiction that involves compulsive behaviors. The main objectives of this research are to examine the hands of drug addicts and drug abused people. Also, find out a successful way to diagnose chronic addiction tendencies through hand analysis. Obtain two types of handprints of both hands. Examine the obtained handprints. Their various aspects were observed under the four main streams. In conclusion, I confirm that hand analysis can be used to recognized drug addiction and its effects on behaviors. Keywords: Chirognomy, Chiromancy, Dermatoglyphics, hand gestures.
1. INTRODUCTION Addiction could be a psychological and physical inability to prevent overwhelming a chemical, drug, activity, or substance, although it is inflicting mental and physical damage. The term addiction does not only refer to dependence on substances like diacetylmorphine or cocaine. Addiction is when you cannot stop. Not when it puts your own health in danger. Some addiction also involves an inability to prevent partaking in basic activities, like reasonably thinking, eating, or keeping a steady job. In these circumstances, an individual has a behavioral addiction. Addiction could be a chronic sickness that may also be resulting in medications.
2. METHODOLOGY I have obtained two types of handprints from the drug addicts. The first type of prints was obtained by using fingerprint ink CAT. NO. 231T (manufactured by SIRCHIE fingerprint labs, ink. 100 hunter place Youngsville, NC 27596 USA). The second type of prints obtained with a high-resolution camera. Also, made personal data record of that person. Examined two types of handprints. Various aspects were observed under four main streams. Finally, results were compared with their behaviors and emotions, and all the findings were analyzed and classified. 100 drug addict case studies were collected for this research and results compared with 1000 usual case studies.
3. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION Based on one factor cannot predict if someone will become addicted to drugs but a combination of factors influences the risk of addiction. If a person has more risk factors, then the greater the chance that using drugs can lead to addiction. In this study, significant hand signs indicate a chronic tendency to addiction. For example, excess count of AB ridges along with deformed little finger can be seen in 90% of addicted people that compare to normal. These are the hand signs which do not change with time. Therefore, those signs indicate chronic tendencies.
