I've learned that the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person. I've learned that when you are in love it shows. I've learned that just one person saying to me You've made my day!' makes my day. I've learned that having a child fall asleep in your arms is one of the world's most peaceful feelings. I've learned that being kind is more important than being right.

To all the questions about social services taking your kid....here is what happened to me unfortunately. I have been struggling with heroin for about 5 years now and when I became pregnant in April last year I was terrified and didn't know what to do. I didn't want to have a miscarriage from withdrawal so I pretty much had to keep using until I figured something else out. I moved back home and got put on Subutex and it made me feel horrible! So my only other choice was methadone. I started that...

The reason that many people turn to energy drinks in recovery is that they still haven't found a healthy coping mechanism to replace some of the elements of their addiction. Personally I joined AA and I have not drank alcohol since, but I did find my use of energy drinks and sugar, too, became quite compulsive in the early days. I still drink energy drinks, but don't have sugar at all. I looked at all the elements form energy drink use and was able to cut it down. I think a lot of...

Hello, My name is Anna. I have been going to a methadone clinic for 2 years and was recently discharged. When I first went to the clinic in December 2009 it was my last resort I was using heavily and was tired of the life. I had almost dropped out of college, started doing all kinds of stuff that i could think of to come up with money so i could get my fix for the day. Anyway after starting the clinic and getting to a stable dose I finished college got my teaching degree and started teaching...

I just found out that I am 3 moths pregnant. Due to my heroin use I had very irregular periods. I want to quit and go on methadone because I desperately want this baby. My question is will CPS get involved at this point if I go in to my Dr. And am honest about it all? I need help but I'm scared.

It's not ignorance about the addiction of Xanax (proper spelling) that the med. community is experiencing, although that may be the case for a few; it's the deep pockets of the pharmaceutical industrial "czars" that won't let Xanax be re-classified to a higher level!

I am only 23 years old and I have been on pain medication since I was 18 or 19 years old.

I recently was in another car accident and I haven't increased my medication use but I am DYING to get off all medications. I truly rather be in pain...

Nobody forces you to go. On the contrary, in most clinics it's hard to go up. nobody can force you to take medication you don't want too,. Your kid should know you were a junkie because you went and got help! I've been on methadone 30 years and on for the past 24 straight. Wouldn't change it for the world. It gave me my health back, my family, and self respect. People have complaints about clinics and so do I sometime but the hell with that. The goal is to go get your methadone, take it and get...
