Drug Addiction Recovery Literature Ideas?
Question by xSweetiex07: Drug Addiction Recovery Literature Ideas?
My mom has 5 months clean from abusing prescription drugs and I would like to buy her a book for her birthday about recovery. She has been regularly attending Narcotics Anonymous meetings, and through that program she has read one book and started another. She is very involved and serious about staying clean. I want to buy her something inspirational, and keep her spirits up. If you have any ideas please let me know! Thanks so much!!!

Answer by jeffh3000
In a 2003 and 2005 report, the national institutes of health showed some pretty bleak figures.
They estimated that in 2005 that 48 million Americans, 20% of population, had abused prescription drugs.
Based off the 2002 survey, just that year, 4.7 million people used prescription drugs “non-medically” for the first time. This means new abusers of prescription medications on top of exister abusers.
Data for *new abusers* of drugs that year broke down as following:
* 2.5 million used pain relievers
* 1.2 million used tranquilizers
* 761,000 used stimulants
* 225,000 used sedatives
Why Do People Abuse Tramadol?
Question by Monica A: Why do people abuse Tramadol?
Best answer:
Answer by Crazeddoglady
Why do people abuse alcohol, cocaine, heroin, and every prescription pain drug available? Because they can. Addictive personalities must be monitored whenever they are prescribed serious pain meds. Unfortunately many of our doctors are less than enthusiastic about doing this. In fact, a small number of doctors are willing to continue to prescribe through greed (if you pay them under the table they’ll prescribe), laziness or because they are so busy they cannot do a good job. The US Veteran’s Admin. is one of the worst offenders and that’s our tax money at work.

Need Help? Baby Sister on Heroin?
Question by Tecumseh: Need help? Baby sister on Heroin?
My baby sister just called me and told me that she is on heroin, she says that she has people after her and that she can not quit the drug on her own without becoming terribly ill. I know she needs my help and i am willing to take her children into my home while she goes to a rehab center, the only problem there is she doesn’t have any money, but i think she has a medical card, so is there a rehab center that anyone knows of near kentucky, ohio or indiana that will take in someone with a medical card? I don’t now what to do and really need some kind of advice.
p.s. does anyone know if any rehabs take people with medical cards?
medical card is like medicaid or medicare, whichever one isn’t for elderly people, the welfare one. and i would never turn my back on her, the reason she came to me is because i have battled my own addictions and she knows that because of that the last thing i would do is judge her. I still see her as my freckle face 7 year old stalker and would turn my back on her about the same time hell froze over.
