Do you find yourself judging people because they're overweight or they appear to be anorexic? It's not a question a lot of people would probably answer honestly if I approached them on the street but unfortunately today, people are judged due to their weight and appearance.
Thousands of men, women and children throughout the United States are overweight and there are many teens and adults that suffer from anorexia and bulimia, and sadly they're judged harshly for the way they look.
It's extremely sad that we live in a world that spends so much mental energy judging and focusing our thoughts and opinions on others appearance and not our own problems and flaws, which I might add, we all have. It's not that most people are mean, they're just uninformed and assume that anyone with a...
When an addictive behavior is stopped or an addictive substance is withdrawn from use, withdrawal symptoms almost always follow. Depending on the behavior or substance, these symptoms can appear within a few hours (nicotine) or over a few days or weeks (alcohol, or most behavioral addictions).
Hunker down. Get quinine water to cure the restless leg syndrome. Get good food like Juice, soothing foods because at times your body will crave nutrition again. Pray for divine healing in Jesus name and, if you can, get you Dr. to prescribe you Clonidine (a blood pressure med used for opiate detox), and anything else that will help. Good Luck. Gene
This is a fantastic article. Personally after have gone through the process is sounds a lot easier than it really is. I think one other person noted that the maintenance stage really never ends. I think even after you get over your addiction you still have to work hard every day to prevent relapse. Vicky- I am so sorry about your daughter. You hope that by sending them to treatment they will get better. Have you thought about switching treatment centers for her?
A place where christian can share and help solve their common bonds of chemical dependency.

WHAT you let your daughter take Vicodin and she's only 14 OMG poor thing. I gave my girls Tylenol and that's it. I feel sorry take her she just might need to take them forever. It's not easy to get off of them. The best thing is to; take 1/4 off every 6 days. It will work it worked with me.
I have three children oldest now is 24 she is a great wife and mother of two. I have a 21 year old son father of 1 I have a 16 year old son father of none. I allowed my children to have occasional drinks when we went camping and bonfires. There was no age I set to allot his it was different for each child. My husband and I are not big drinkers so we never had booze in the home unless it was a special occasion. My daughter would have wine coolers at age15 but she was very mature and to this...
I'm in the same boat too. I have to take 1 gram - 1.2 grams to get high from it now and it's bloody painful when I go 2 days without it. God, I hate this pain.
I just want to let you know that I am a recovering codeine addict. I know exactly what you went through and I really could not cope with life without a dose, the pain and the emptiness depression was too unbearable, to the point I just had to take them to stop me from being suicidal and I made a few attempts at OD and rushed to hospital...I was mentally unstable. One day my sister invited me to church and I gave my life to Christ, it wasn't easy, but the new found company of the holy spirit...
I am 33 years old and I have depression and anxiety. My psychiatrist prescribed me Klonopin and Zoloft. I take them both together a couple of hours before going to bed. I am feeling so much better. I don't have as much anxiety and I rarely feel depressed. I am just concerned about becoming addicted to Klonopin. I have tried to stop taking it but I can't sleep and I am up all night tossing and turning. I would like to stop taking both meds all together because I really want to have another baby...

For those addicted to GHB, they need to know that it is difficult to find a facility knowledgeable and equipped to do a GHB detox. It should be a medical detox, not cold turkey. It is most like alcohol or benzos but can be even more prolonged (10-14 days for actual detox). Most facilities do NOT know this drug and will keep them for three days and send them out the door. Days 4-6 are typically the most crucial. At day 3 people can seem coherent but in fact will not remember those days. But do...
