Question by defenseonly: Are rehabs “locked down” so that residents cant escape or is it just easy to casually walk out?
For the record, I know somebody who did yes, once again they suffer, probably overdose, It is expected we are prepared, but it is hard, and we want to give up, all hope is gone, he leaves for 7 days stays in these nasty hotels, I really just dont want to listen to it any more, he doesnt want to live, if any of you know about addiction you will understand why I have to make the decision to turn my back. Yes he had intervention, jail, bootcamps, TRV’s etc…

It depends on the facility, you’d have to ask the clinic.

Answer by Witty Wabbit
“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” 😀

Question by swtgretchen: Drug addiction……..Cocaine………..?
A “friend” and her boyfriend started out using about 1 1/2 years ago. They finally have decided to quit but it’s really hard. They tried the stay away from everyone that does it and the disassociate themselves with all, but to no avail the friends they did have that didn’t do it now do and sell on top of it. They were there “support” and there aren’t any NA places around here just AA. They are slowly losing everything and I want to help, they can’t “go away for 30 or 60 days” because they have children. What other options?
I have heard there is actually a shot you can get that makes you sick to your stomach if you do it after the shot, rumors true??
sounds like a great idea, although just said “the few friends they did have are now doing the drugs and selling them” anymore bright ideas?
ummm and have YOU even been hooked on cocaine, your rigth even though you see your entire world crumbling around you, you don’t want to stop. The drug makes you numb inside so you don’t have to care.

One option is for them to appoint someone using a power of attorney to manage their finances and pay their bills. If they don’t have any money to pay for the drugs, then they can’t really get them without hiding some money [if that’s the case, then they don’t really want to quit.]

Answer by Kaleigh
I personally hate the smell. And I think it’s the fear that it could be something that you’re addicted to.
Answer by No Name
Many don’t like the smell. I like the smell, but one girl that I dated disliked the smell and many of my females friends dislike it just because they think it is a gateway drug.
@Kaleigh: Addiction to it is government propaganda. One can become a habitual user, but one cannot become an adict. Many of those who are in “rehab” or “drug addiction counseling” are there because the other option was jail and a criminal record.
