    Mother of heroin users

    Hello T, As these are extremely sensitive sets of situations, I will try to tread as lightly as possible. It is safe to say that no child stanRAB up in class and announces that they want to be addicted to drugs when they grow up. There may be one or several factors that led your two children...

    My mother is an addict

    Hello Karel, May I suggest to love her unconditionally; meaning love the woman, not her actions. Yes, it can be quite a tall order but I doubt you want to leave her "out in the cold" on her lonesome. If she is really out of control and at risk of harming herself or others, I would look into...

    1 step to addiction and the struggle that awaits me

    Hello A and welcome, I've come to notice that help is something that can be asked for more easily than accepted, in a person addicted. I don't know if it lies in one's personality,the chemical irabalance created over time or both. At night, it is easier to travel without being noticed. It...

The psychology of addiction dictates that "more often than not" one will need assistance, if he/she is going to erabark on the road to recovery. You have stated that you "need" to...

    I need help...I have no idea what to do

    Hello Sg: No one can possibly know the road that narcotics will have them travel. In saying that, a person, once addicted, will become selfish because the inherant nature of this particular substance is designed to "eat away" at one's hopes, dreams and aspirations. Those that were deemed as...

    I feel like I'm mourning a lover

    Hello digmusic: While using the illegal substance of choice, prioities become shifted[over time]. What you miss is the "hiding" attribute of this substance. You can live without a substance that is not medically necessary. Are you not tired of being called all the stereotypical names that...

    State Hospital Detox

    Hello G, With respect to your son, I hope that he has seen the error of his ways and views this as time for reflection. At this point in time, only he truly knows his intentions. Chances are (and I take no enjoyment from stating this) if he does not think he has a problem, he will not...

    Buying wisdom . . . . .?

    When I was in junior school, a good while back now, a teacher asked us what we would do if we were very rich. One of the girls said she would pay someone a lot of money to make her wise, which is not a bad answer for an eight or nine year old. Thing is, if it did actually work like that - would...

    Is the Ninja 500R a good first bike? Any other suggestions?

    I've been looking around online, and that seems like the best bet for me so far. I'm definitely open to other options though, as I've never even been on a motorcycle before... will be taking an MSF course before I buy and buying used. Also, I'm 5'3". Thanks!
