Is All Drug Addiction Bad? What Is Wrong With Being Addicted to Sleeping Pills?

Question by thetigersnameistony: Is all drug addiction bad? What is wrong with being addicted to sleeping pills?
I have been addicted to sleeping pills for a while (probably years.) They are over the counter. I take them only at night to sleep…it’s not like they are disturbing my life in any way.

I actually don’t know if I am addicted because I have not tried to fall asleep without them and once recently I actually fell asleep without them and slept through the night. I just love the sleep I get using them and hate “trying” to fall asleep. I could sit up all night easily without them. With them I just fall into sleep and I love that.

Can Someone Please Tell Me How to Find Addiction Treatment Centers in Rohnert Park, California?

Question by aisha t: Can someone please tell me how to find addiction treatment centers in Rohnert Park, California?
This is for my brother. We’ve only just moved here at the beginning of the month, and he’s gotten himself into bad company already. They influenced him into taking drugs, and now he’s so much different from the way he was before. Sometimes I look at him and I wonder whether he’s the same brother that I used to climb trees with, the brother who used to help me with my homework. Last night, we got into a fight, and though he hurt me, it also made me realize that even though he’s a drug addict now, he’s still my brother, and I would do anything to get him to go back to the way he once was. Please help.

And if anyone happens to be an ex-heroin addict, PLEASE contact me asap.

I have a close friend of mine who’s almost gone insane because of heroin addiction. His family is now considering sending him to Singapore, a supposedly drug-free nation, to keep him off heroin. Is that a good idea?

No! “sending him to Singapore” is certainly NOT a good or responsible thing to do!

What Can I Do About My Sister Spending Her Sons SSI on Drugs?

Question by johnsonpe4: What can I do about my sister spending her sons SSI on drugs?
My nephew is on SSI for reasons not completely known to me. My sister is his custodial parent but does not provide for him in the slightest. My mother/his grandmother who is disabled herself and can barely care for herself is the one who actually takes care of him. Every month when his money comes in. Money meant to keep him fed clothed and housed in school. Is instead spent on her drug addiction. I’ve gone so far as to spend my own money to get him socks because she won’t. But I can provide for him completely because I have 2 sons of my own who I raise by myself. He has next to no clothes and has even recently been expelled from school. But that’s all besides the point. Over the passed year I have reported her to social security twice and they have done NOTHING to stop her. So a few days ago I called the sheriffs department to see what they could do. Apparently they can do nothing apart from catching her with her junk on her. What else can I do to help stop what she is doing? I really could care less about her drug habit. But she should not be doing it on my nephews money. Any real tips or advice would be nice and VERY helpful. Thanks in advance.
1. My nephew does not live with me.
