Drug Addiction Treatment, Do You Need Help? - Substance dependency treatment is available to assist any individual with an addiction or substance use problem. Each treatment is tailored to individual needs so that they can learn to control their addiction and live normal, productive lives. Let's start with these suggestions: First, you need to admit your problem. This first step may be the hardest step to seeking the drug addiction treatment you need. Looking For Redemption At The Bottom Of A 12-Pack - I spent many years looking for redemption at the bottom of a twelve pack. Guess what? I never found it. The dictionary describes redemption as: the act of delivering from sin or saving from evil. Did I feel as if I needed saved? Not necessarily, but I did feel that altering my 'reality' with the help of alcohol was something I enjoyed doing, and at the time, I did enjoy it. But once I finally stepped away and got a sober perspective, I realized that thinking the way I did then was literally insanity. Sobriety Birthday - "Foul is fair, fair is foul" said by the one and only Shakespeare. Boozing might be heaven for you but at the same time poison for others. It is simply because your life partner is too irritated with your alcoholic machismo and your friends are bored with your gibberish that you utter while deep intoxication. Coping Responsibly with Addiction. Do You Get It? - Preventing and Coping with Problems While preventing a problem before it happens is usually "better" than facing the problem, typically it also involves a different level of complexity. Let me explain. Preventing genital herpes or AIDS, for instance, is obviously "better" AND far easier to deal with than curing these diseases. In fact, given our current medical knowledge, both genital herpes and AIDS are without cure. As another example, consider unwanted pregnancy. The Internet: The Latest Form of Addiction? - Internet-Related Addictions In my travels through cyberspace, I have noticed an increasing number of websites and blogs discussing various forms of Internet-related addictive behavior. In fact, I have recently encountered the following online dependencies: porn, gambling, video games, comment addiction (i.e., checking the comments on one's blog), Internet addiction, blog addiction, Technorati addiction, forum addiction, information addiction, MySpace addiction, and addiction to Bloglines. This inventory is obviously not an official list gathered from the medical or psychological literature. The False High of Addiction - The Doctor Who Had Everything While scanning the information on the Titusonenine blog, I recently read a post entitled "A Bout With Addiction, for the Doctor Who Has Everything" that captured my interest. According to the post, Dr. G. was an anesthesiologist who became addicted to drugs. The Effects of Smoking and Drinking On Mental Proficiency - Smoking Can Prime the Brain for Later Addiction An article entitled "Adolescent Smokers Have A Greater Risk Of Developing Alcohol-use Disorders Than Nonsmokers" by Richard A. Grucza, and Kevin W. Chen revealed research findings that are problematic at best. Perhaps the most disturbing was this: research suggests that smoking "primes" the brain for later addiction to alcohol and perhaps other drugs. The Mixed Messages in our Society About Drinking Alcohol - An Issue of Mixed Messages How can something as prevalent, accepted, and accessible in our society as drinking alcohol be so harmful, unhealthy, AND illegal when consumed at or slightly above moderate intake levels? The simple asking of this question immediately uncovers a number of issues, one of which is the mixed messages that exist in our society about drinking alcohol. The Accessibility and Acceptability of Alcohol On the one hand, consider the thousands upon thousands of bars and taverns in the United States. The Basics EVERYONE Must Know About Alcoholics Anonymous And Addiction Treatment - One of the oldest forms of dealing with addiction is to be a member of Alcoholics Anonymous (simply known as AA). Many people that are getting to know about this group of people recently are having some misconceptions about the group. Some people see them as a bunch of unserious people with no effective means of dealing with the problem of alcohol addiction. Others perceive them as being irrelevant in the modern days of technology. There are even some that share the belief that the group cannot help an addict. What is AA? What do they do? How do they help the addict? All these and other relevant questions will be answered to help you make the right decision. Quitting the Negative Cycle of Excuses and Addiction - Dulling the Pain I have heard people say that they abuse alcohol and drugs to "dull the pain. Do You Like To Have A Beer Or Three? Me too - I find it perplexing how a person's thinking can becomeâ€¦â€¦..well clouded. Should Parents Test Adolescents for Substance Use? - Much has been made recently of the opportunities afforded by recent technology for parents to obtain cheap alcohol and drug testing facilities. So are these a real boon to parents. Is it a positive step being able to test your teenager for alcohol and drugs? Instead of getting the surly automatic denial, is it not a genuine benefit to be able to get a definitive answer so that both parents and adolescents know whether drugs or alcohol are being consumed? Do parents really need to use a testing kit to tell if their kids are using drugs. Beyond Sobriety - Congratulations! Now that you are sober, you have released yourself from the bonds of your addiction. Taking your power back from alcohol can be seen as a completion, a graduation, of the first of a series of seven mini "courses". You can now choose to enroll in the second course toward your "degree" in Taking Control of Your Life. Anything you do to an extreme is a way of running away from yourself. So the next course is to Take An Inventory of other addictions you may have. Are you smoking? Do you overwork? The War on College Alcohol Abuse - What causes college students to abuse alcohol? The answers are probably many, but the simplest answer is this: Because they can. Surviving Spring Break - If you have children in high school or college, you know all about the importance kids place on Spring Break. This rite of passage, practiced by teens for decades, is for many parents the first time they allow their kids to travel without them. Almost a declaration of independence, this one- to two-week period in the months of March and April is a time when most young people feel free to do anything and everything they can't - or won't - do at home under your watchful eyes. Finding Alcohol Rehab and Drug Rehab Programs - When you love someone close to you, sometimes you need to make the tough decisions. When someone you are close to is obviously abusing alcohol or drugs, you know that the best thing you can do to help them is to get them into a rehab program. It will be hard for them and perhaps hard for you as well, but you know that this is what you need to do for them to help them before the problem gets worse. The over-consumption of alcohol is currently rated to be the third most preventable type of death in the US today. Change Our Focus, Change Our Society - Do you ever wonder why although so much of our tax dollars go to government programs to resolve society's problems, things seem to be getting worse? Are you appalled while reading the papers or listening to the news because you do not understand why so many adults and children are hurting themselves and others? Possibly the main reason why many of our programs have failed, why abuse is so widespread, is because society has been focusing on the symptoms and not the causes. As a former high school teacher and psychotherapist, I am convinced that the causes of most of our problems are the inability to constructively deal with our emotions. Our schools focus mainly on the mind and somewhat on the physical body. But no experts teach how to constructively deal with feelings. Drug Addiction Rehab Programs Effectiveness - Drug addiction rehab is a generic phrase, which refers to drug rehabilitation, and presupposes a medical treatment for the dependency of legal or illegal drugs, alcohol, even nicotine or any other psychoactive substance. If you are longing or craving to use again and again a drug, then it doesn't matter if the substance behind that drug is legal or illegal, what you need is a drug addiction rehab. The Four Main Symptoms Of Alcoholism - For most of us, a trip to the bar for a drink is no big deal. Many go out with friends to have a few while socializing. Some choose to celebrate a special occasion, such as a wedding, or a promotion. Others may even use it as an opportunity to blow off a little steam after a long week at work. To some though, the act of having a few can lead to serious problems. These people suffer from an addiction to alcohol. Alcoholism - Causes and Effects - Alcoholism is the inability to control or ignore a strong craving for alcohol. People suffering from alcoholism often find that they need the aid of alcohol to feel good or normal. They often crave alcohol, but this craving is much stronger than the occasional craving people have for certain foods. The craving for alcohol experienced by those suffering from alcoholism is often so severe that the individual feels they need alcohol as if it were food or water. They do not feel they can go a day, or in some extreme cases, an hour, without consuming alcohol.
