Addictions

You should not for the following reasons..

Not only is it foolish to replace substances,

but suboxone is a opiate blocker,

and when you are withdrawing, taking this will create a crisis in the chemicals of your brain, meaning it can cause you withdrawal symptoms to become much more painful.

Referring to the pattern that addiction follows in most cases:

1. the addict has the first experience with a substance or behavior that fills a need, and it is a "feel good" experience that they begin to crave more of. This could be years before they actually begin to suffer the effects of addiction, but is known as the "qualifying event". An example would be a child is upset, angry, feeling an extreme sadness of some kind and goes to the medicine cabinet in an act of rebellion, takes an old prescription of a narcotic, and instantly feels a certain "relief" or "euphoria" taking the pill(s). That experience is saturated in the part of the brain that recognizes such feelings, and stored away. Since addiction is considered a brain disorder and not something that a person "acquires", that experience simply starts the sequence that will ultimately take their life.

2. At some point, be it hours or years, the addict returns to that particular experience- and tries to replicate it. They might take someone else's medication from their medicine cabinet (using the previous mentioned example as a sort of "road map"), thereby replicating the experience , and again, it proves to be a "feel good" time that, in the addict's mind, is going to solve whatever problem or feeling they want to get rid of, even though they know that the drug or behavior is considered harmful or contraindicated. At this point, however, their life has not been affected.

3. The behavior or substance continues to be sought after- and the life of the addict begins to reflect the time and energy it takes to seek out that "addiction". Now enters the part of addiction where denial, rationalizing, manipulating others to get that drug or to continue the behavior and minimizing the effect the behavior is having on their life and those they love, and the structure of the addict's life begins to crumble.

Their education, relationships, daily living, financial situation, and many other aspects of one's life are affected in a negative way. The addict often times cannot SEE how dire the circumstances are becoming, although during this part of their journey they might have what is called a "window of clarity", where they suddenly discover or see clearly what is happening to them, and desperately want help to change it, knowing they cannot do it alone. Many addicts try and attempt to "fix" their problems with substances or destructive behaviors on their own, and as they say in the 12 step programs, ":your best ideas, your best intentions got you to where you are today"".

Addiction is the only disease that TELLS YOU THAT YOU DON'T HAVE A DISEASE.

Even with tangible, undisputed proof that this addiction is killing the addict, they continue with their denial- rationalizing, minimizing, and even blaming their problems on o thers.

4. The addict has a window of clarity as mentioned prior, and they may seek help at this point. It is VERY important that at this time, anyone whom is close to the addict do anything they can to engage them in treatment.

*** (please look up "enabling" if you are close to an addict, because there is a difference between trying to help your loved one engage in treatment versus enabling them to do so)***'

Often times, helping an addict involves treating them in a way that is not natural- such as asking them to leave your home, or firing them from their job so they don't have an income with which to use drugs. Unlike other diseases and disorders, "helping" an addict often times does NOT feel good, nor does it feel as if you are helping, until they are in active recovery.

5. If the addict DOES engage in recovery- then the disorder is put into "remission" like any other disease or disorder. It does not, however, become "cured". Similar to cancer or diabetes, it is something that cannot go unchecked. Addiction is a life long disease, and even those who have been abstinent for 20 or more years can, at any time, and for any reason, "relapse"/

RELAPSE- a return to active use of the behavior or drug that was harming the individual- despite the consequences and negative experiences that accompany whatever "good feeling" the drug or behavior provides the addict.

Relapse is very common at this point in the addiction cycle, and often times although it can be deadly and incredibly harmful, if the person lives through it, can be incredibly potent in keeping the addict back in recovery- inspiring them to not relapse again. If the relapse is processed with trained professionals in a supportive setting, the addict can grow and learn from it.

6. Sustained recovery is the goal of any addict emerging from addiction. If this is not reached, the addict will either relapse, continuing the cycle or eventually lose their life to the addiction or the effects of it. thereby ending the "sequence" or cycle. (such as using IV heroin, the addict might not die from an overdose , but they could die from HIV contracted from their use and abuse of IV heroin by sharing dirty needles)

It depends what you are coming down from. With any drug you have the option of (depending on your area) going to a detox center where they will medically supervise and assist you in this process. If you are talking about long term, chronic alcohol use you may want to strongly consider going to a 'detox' or addiction treatment center because there is a risk of seizures with alcohol withdrawal. If you are talking about prescription benzodiazepines or opioids (oxys, codeine, etc) you will experience actual physical pain. This can be relieved with the BRATS diet, mushed bananas, rice water (cook rice, throw out the rice, drink the water), applesauce and toast or if you don't have or like toast, then soda crackers. The trick to this is that you have to eat all of these items at the same time to be effective, but it can help with some withdrawal symptoms. I hope that's helpful, your question isn't very specific.

Currently, Eminem claims to be completely sober. He was previouslty addicted to weed and different sleeping pills (sobered up from weed in 2002 according to his best friend Proof and from Sleeping Pills in 2008 according to Eminem himself). Eminem is considered to currently not be a drug addict.

Suboxine (buprenorphine-naloxone) is an opioid. Its half life is 36 hours - that means in 36 hours, your blood level of this drug would be reduced by 50%; in 72 hours, your blood level of the medication would be reduced by another 25%, and so on.

There is no standard layout for the nature of a drug 'addict'. Addiction is simply a term that is frequently used incorrectly, used to label frequent drug users or drug users who have used to the point that they experience physical and psychological urges to obtain the drug or obtain something to allow them to do the latter. Drug 'addicts' will frequently lie to get the drug but it ultimately depends on the person and the willpower of that person. Addiction is a highly disputed subject among both the professional and the layman's world.

When someone is addicted to a drug or alcohol they will frequently lie to maintain their addiction. For example they will lie about money, where they were etc. It comes with the territory so to speak. This doesn't mean they are overall liars about everything or overall bad people, they just are trying to continue their addiction. It is a complicated thing to understand.

Unless they are afflicted with some sort of physical abnormality yes.

It is a time release formulation of buprenorphine, a mixed opiate agonist / antagonist with a long half-life (stays in the body for a long time). It is used to treat opiate (heroin) addiction in a manner similar to methadone - it prevents the addict from going through withdrawal by maintaining their physical dependence, while hopefully giving them time to recover mentally and financially.

Buprenorphine has several advantages over methadone as a maintenance medication. Most importantly, it can be prescribed a month at a time, so the patient doesn't need to go to the methadone clinic every day. Withdrawal is less severe, and it effectively blocks other opiates so the patient can no longer get high. Ultimately, however, it is another form of addiction, and the patient must either go through withdrawal at some point or take the medication the rest of their life. I am looking more for documentation of it's actual use in place of other meds i.e methadone. I have been put on it, and yet I still can['t seem to get the answers I am looking for from my Dr. who is all for it, being a Pain Management MD< and a meth. withdrawal clinic with suboxone or subutex used.

There are several forms of addiction like for instance dependency to drugs, sex, alcohol, and etc. The only way to stop those is to undergo a rehabilitation program and recovery program that can change their lifestyle.

Some do, but for the most part, no, men do not use vibrators. They are not stimulated as much as women are by vibration.

Leave them at the store. Those things will screw you up worse than just about anything.

if we are still united i can answer you very well but it's a long time ago.

If you are taking suboxone, you already have one drug problem! Let's not even think about starting up another one by taking illegal steroids. Go to your NA meetings and stay clean. You do not need any more problems in your life right now.

can a person take famciclovir while taking anabolic steroids?

Encourage,Ensure, an Help. (EEH). People need guidance an prayer( encourage)Start by getting posters, have a conference meeting. Start having cookouts, or some way to make money. Take your profits,put it on a building,make it your business. (Ensure). Go out an (help) thoses that have drug abuse problems.

Suboxone does not show up in drug tests. It only shows up if they specifically test for it, which my doctors say is very rare.

you can avoid medicine abuse by not overdosing on pills, not taking pills or medicine that is not proscribed to you, or you can go to therapy or medicine abuse classes so you can overcome medicine abuse or so you won't start going or getting into medicine abuse.

Just make sure you wait 6-8 hours after taking a diladid! People say 12hrs but i took two 30mg oxy codone the other day at 10:30 a.m. & then took an 8mg suboxone at 4:00 p.m. and It did me real good! So bottom line I would say wait a min. of 6 hrs!

Absolutely not, its perfectly natural for a girl to want to explore her body, dont think of it as a bad thing.

I hope this helped.:)

There are many different TYPES of addiction, but the form is always the same.

Addiction is a disorder of the brain, located in the part of the brain that is used for "pleasure and gratification" (instant or otherwise).

Here are some types:

ADDICTION TO:

pornography

food

drugs (covers ALL drugs, prescribed and illegal, man made and pharmaceutical, all different types (such as cocaine, heroin,marajuana, inhalants, ecstasy, etc))

alcohol (alcohol IS a drug)

inhalants (glue, paint, etc)

technology ("tech junkies") (gaming, movies, etc)

gambling

Sex

exercise

Almost any pleasurable substance or activity will have someone "addicted" to it, as referenced back to the "pleasure" part of the brain where addiction is located.

You just lost the best lover you ever had. Don't rush into a relationship to fill the void. Let someone approach you and even then be hesitant. Be strong, and avoid "Euphoric Recall", that is, remebering how good it felt when you were using. You have to force yourself to focus on something else. Good luck...Stay Strong. Most 12 step programs advocate not becomming involved in a relationship for at least the first year of recovery. You need to become comfortable with yourself before you can be comfortable with someone else. As recovering adicts (alcoholics fall into the same catagory- even though some don't think so) we have a hard time dealing with reality, which is why we seek chemical release. Until you can be comfortable facing reality without any chemical crutch, you won't be able to have a successful relationship. This process usually takes at least a year... some take much longer. Good luck in your recovery. (P.S. I'm not just citing some psycho-babble- I've been sober for 24 years)

yes it is very dngerous to take oxy with subs!! you can die no doubt about it. what suboxin does is prevent you from doin an oxy it is a opiet blocker. if you take a sub and try to do an oxy an hour or so later you dont get high or if you do an oxy and then do a sub you will get severe withdrawl symptoms or go into cardiac arrest be careful with both of these drugs.

Yes, those are both types of addiction. Physical addiction is when the body gets used to the drug and you have to have it for the body to function normally. That is why alcoholics have to go to detox centers. But they still have a psychological dependence, and if they stop treatment at that point, they will likely start using again and get the physical dependence back. So they then have to treat the psychological urges to use the substance and the underlying causes.
