Can Anyone Please Tell Me What Heroin Detox Is?

Question by delaney v: Can anyone please tell me what heroin detox is?
I’ve heard my parents talking to each other about this. It seems as if one of my cousins will go through this sometime soon. I just got curious, since I’ve always heard of drug rehabs and treatment centers, but this is the first time I’ve heard of detox.

Heroin detox is oftentimes the first step in a drug treatment program. It detoxifies the body. This means that it cleanses out remains of the drug and makes sure that the body is restored back to its healthy state. The managing of one’s diet is also a part of detoxification.

Is a Gallbladder Problem a Symptom of Drug Addiction?

Question by : Is a gallbladder problem a symptom of drug addiction?
Hi. I’ve been smoking weed for a few months straight now because it was a way of escaping from my depression. I’ve been gaining more and more anxiety lately and I get really nervous and start to twitch when I am in certain places in public or around certain age groups. Also, I’ve been getting alot of urges to pee. I wake up in the middle of the night because I had to pee so bad. Is that supposed to be a symptom of drug addiction/abuse?

I Have Been Raised by a Single Mother Since I Was Five. Do You Think I Will Suffer Any Ill Effects?

Question by Object Of It’s Ire: I have been raised by a single mother since I was five. Do you think I will suffer any ill effects?
My mother, Monique, divorced my father when I was five and we left to live by ourselves. I’m a bit worried by statistics which indicate I am more likely to criminally offend or become violent than someone raised in a two parent family.

But.. I think that’s baloney and that I’ll turn out fine.
Thanks for the support everyone. I ask mostly because of this:
