Question by Amberly: What can my doctor do for ambien addiction?
I want to get off of ambien and sleep aids all together, but when I try to do it myself, I get extremely sick and can’t stop shaking and vomiting. If I make an appointment with my doctor, what can he do for me? I dont feel that my problem is big enough for “rehab”, but I definitely know that I need some sort of intervention.

Answer by Dexter Morgan
You can’t quit cold turkey. That is very bad for your body. You need to gradually reduce your intake and your body will become readjusted and no longer need it. Talk to your doctor about your desire to stop taking it, he will advise you how eventually quit. But you can’t just stop taking it all at once. Tell him the effects when you stop taking it. You need to GRADUALLY reduce your intake, most likely over a period of a month or two. I’m not a doctor but I know if you stop taking medication and try to quit cold turkey your body will react badly.

He can advise how to quit SAFELY and alternatives

Melatonin is a natural sleep aide that is non habit forming.

No you wont need rehab for this
But you do need help from your doctor to do it
He will slowly and gradually get you off them
You are making yourself worse by trying this yourself

Question by Meghan W.: General addiction support?
I have what I believe to be an addiction, but it does not fall into the regular “groups” (Drugs, Alcohol, Sex/Porn, etc). Are there any general addiction support groups where I could seek peer aid?

Best answer:

Answer by kim s
It’s kinda hard to help if we don’t know what the addiction is. But there might be a support group for it. Maybe try googling it instead.

Answer by orchidmg

National Alliance of Mental Illness

They have support groups in many cities. See if your city has a group. They meet 1-3 a month for an hour and a half. Talking helps. You will be surprised that you aren’t alone.

I use to be addicted to beer and cigarettes and sex. After my divorce and having a child I stopped all that. But I’m now addicted to spending money on crap. Purses, pens, lighthouses, books, food. I’m also addicted to food. Big time! My health isn’t good because of it. I’m also addicted to Yahoo Answers 🙂

Good luck

Question by Lauren Luxe: What is your opinion on medical marijuana?
Do you believe it is helpful or destructive? Do you think it is beneficial or dangerous? Do you think it helps solve more problems than it creatives? Do you think it actually destroys white matter in your brain? Do you believe that brain cells are not capable of producing more brain cells?

There are many different views on the issue regarding medical grade marijuana.
A lot of published online reports contain falsified information to persuade people in order to create this idea that may not necessarily be true.

In your opinion, what is the best way to legalize marijuana?

And on that topic, what do you think will happen to all the other “addicts” who wish to legalize their own “drug of choice.”

In the wise words of Bob Marley, “Smoke the herb and it reveals yourself to you.” Do you think that is true?

In the words written in some texts, people believe that every plant, every animal, every living thing, somebody saw all of the uses for them and saw that it was “GOOD.”

What is your stance on this argument?
Please include supporting information and trustworthy sources. Thank you.

Best answer:

Answer by Boiled Angel
I believe it’s helpful, I believe it’s beneficial, I think it will solve problems, and I do not believe it destroys brain matter and the brain is capable of producing more brain cells.

I think the best way to legalize it is to market it and tax it. It will generate so much profit that it will pay for some of our debt. We will also save money from having to convict those who are charged with crimes involving it. Putting someone in prison is expensive!

I do believe Bob Marley’s words are true. From my experience with the stuff, I have found out many things about myself that I wouldn’t have realized otherwise.

I’m not saying Marijuana is the best thing in the world that will solve all of our problems, I just think it’s ridiculous that it’s illegal. It makes no sense. Well, it actually does make sense because there are a lot of greedy rich bastards out there who would fall if it became legal.

Answer by Mrs. Eric Cartman
Looks like someone is doing a paper, haha. Visit cracked.com and read the arguments for and against pot. Do a search.

As for my opinion, I’m 100% for it. Prescription drugs are dangerous; pot is not. I’ve known two truly sick people who benefitted greatly from it. Cops never get called in for a domestic violence situation when it’s weed. It’s all drunks. Most of the dangerous stuff is legal. You can get it from ABC liquor or the doctor. Weed is harmless. If drugs were legal, it would destroy the illegal drug trade. The govt spends millions fighting the drug trade, and drugs are easier for minors to get than beer. People are dying over WEED. Going to jail over weed. The prison systems want to keep it illegal because they want money. They want to house people. It turns normal citizens into criminals and gets them in the system. It’s greedy and it’s irrational.
