Question by Somebody: Do I have to study specifically something to be an addiction worker?
I’m graduating soon and I really want to help people with drug addiction but I don’t know if I have to go to a college where they teach specifically those things. Does it really matter if I’ll go to a college and then I’ll be a nurse and so on…Can I still work as an addiction worker? I live in California and I don’t know about any specific colleges near me. I searched the internet too

Answer by lil bit
It can help just to read some books on alcoholism, eating disorders, drug addiction, excessive spending, smoking. They may have a course at the College – but I have never seen one seperate class for addictions. I think it is what one learns in college when taking classes for social work (Bachelors in Social Work; Masters in Social Work) – it is probably in the cirrculum.

Question by meetoo: Alcoholic sober for 12 years, but I really want to drink some good red wine with dinner – Do you think I can?
I got sober 12 years ago when my life was a disaster. Booze, drugs and the wild rock n roll lifestyle nearly killed me.

Since then, I have aquired a great life. Wife, 2 kids, a good job…….But, I really want to drink like a nice red wine with good food.

I feel like I’m missing out on one of life’s great pleasures – good wine.

Any alcoholics out there grow out of it, and found themselves able to just drink some occassional wine?

Best answer:

Answer by JonnyMac
Why would you want to risk everything you have, just to have a glass of wine? You are a recovering alcoholic, so you should know of the slippery slope that drinking can be. You claim to have a good life with your wife, kids and job. Don’t be a fool.
