I'm termally ill on opiates anti-depressants Ritalin inhalers herbs power drinks mega vitamins. My urine test came positive for coke and opiates. Have court for vop. Will I go to jail?

Without knowing the specifics of your case, I suggest you talk to your doctor, or find a doctor before you have to return to court. A helpful doctor will explain that you are taking opiates for terminal illness and that this was why your urine tested positive. Also, don't forget to be apprised of your legal rights. The judge may not want to throw you into an overcrowded penal institution if there are viable options suchs as treatment or short hospitalization. Ask a Public Defender to speak on your behalf in court, or better still, borrow $500 from someone to have a real lawyer represent you before the judge. It may cost another $500 in legal fees, but who wants to go to the clink just for violating parole? Cheer up. You have a medical condition, not a moral deficiency. You should not be housed with serious gangbangers when you are terminally ill.

How do you know that Ritalin is not woking for you?

Ritalin is very controversial and in the past if a child was more active than other children or perhaps disruptive in class Ritalin always came up and handed out to children like candy from a Pez Dispenser. Ritalin is NOT a good drug and the Canadian FDA has put restrictions on this drug. Most of the problem with children may be hyper-active, moody, crying episodes, will not listen to the parent (acts out) etc., is due to TOO MUCH SUGAR! It seems too simple to be true, but generally if you take a child off of ALL foods or drinks that have sugar in them you'll see a great change in your child and for the good! Try it, what do you have to lose. This means no candy, pop, etc. It's tough, but it will help your child. Try a month and if you find your child is still not acting the way he/she should be then see a specialist.
