Does Life Ever Get Better?
Question by melinda: Does life ever get better?
hi, I’m recovering from a drug addiction about a little over two weeks clean at the moment and I’m doing it on my own. And I don’t feel life is worth living, I mean does it ever get better? I feel like I’m in a black hole and the light is getting further and further out of reach. Some shit happened in my past that I couldn’t handle so I OD’d a little over 2 years ago and ended up in the hospital and after that I got hooked on drugs. Does anyone have any experience with what I’m going through??? I just want to be happy again and I’m scared. Im 21 years old.

Answer by Mary K
If you’re talking about ice cubes, what is the problem? Ice is just water and water is good for you in any form. What did the docs say about consequences? I am confused.

What Do You Do if Youre in a Treatment Center and They Wont Let You Leave.?
Question by danie rae: what do you do if youre in a treatment center and they wont let you leave.?
my brothers girlfriend is in az in an eating disorder center and they are lying to her telling her that her family isnt trying to help her and they need to keep her and she cant leave and theyre medicating her. how do we help her from home in idaho?
ok no she is of age and has been doing exceptionally well in the program until the facility found out that her church had given them 20,000 to help her she was doing well enough to leave her parents are on the same page as us this question is coming from all of us
and another thing they have her on trazadone and she went there voluntarily to fix her problems
also we talked to an eating disorder helpline who said that they should not be medicatiing her, that the goal is to get her off of all the meds and help her deal with the issue herself. she has completed the program with 100 percent in everything coming from her and the staff once the staff fund out they had another 20,000 towards her they suddenly found all these reasons to keep her
appearantly i need more details she went because she wanted to her parents were against it at first she is 20 years old and has been there for a month now
on top of all of that if she wanted to leave she would need her id which the facility has locked up with her personal belongings and isnt willing to return to her she is in az and home is id. so even if she grew the balls to just walk out the facility has her plane ticket and id

Best answer:
Answer by grundlegoat
thats kind of tricky because a lot of addicts don’t think they are addicts because they have prescriptions, don’t know they have a problem, or just aren’t ready to admit they have a problem.
