And Scientology is scientifically baseless.

Give your answer to this question below!

I have a friend that has had alcohol problem probably for 4-5 years now and I had always tried to help her with motivational talk she says she’ll get better but then gets worse.So I want to know if anyone knows pills that help with alcohol dependecy and is it true that there are pills that will make you gag when you taste alcohol?

Is there any person out there ,who had get rid of these self killing substances called OPIATES.if ur(the person reading this)is a successful person(in quiting opiates)who had got his freedom back with courage from opiate addiction,(without relapse for at least 6 months),ur much needed person for me.can u tell me how u handeled the TRAUMA and emotional PAIN as well as physical PAIN while quiting.If ur the person(u may understand my pain because u also had gone thru this dark period of life for several months or years).what kind of method u use,how ur able to change ur focus from quiting to getting ur freedom with ur will power.before going further ,I want to tell u that,,,I had 2 relapses,1st after 5 months and 2nd after 6 months.
Ok,medicine works,but eventually,it comes down to emotional cravings(of cource ,after stopping treatment,thinking that,now I don’t need any medicine,I can handle my emotions myself without any medicine).well I had tried COLD TURKEY,but not much success.Well now I think that TAPPERING method is very good,but I need some one who can tell me how to use this method correctely.to tell u,I take 36 capsules in a day,with 3 shifts of 12 capsukes each, Namely SPASMO PROXYVON(my source of opiates).I want to know that how much quantity of capsules should I reduce each week(or 15 days or months as u suggest,with ur experience),so that I don’t feel much cravings,what kind of activity I should I do to keep my focus away from opiates.Meditation works,plz tell me the correct way and timing of doing meditation.Is there any specific diet which may reduce my temptation……or if u had invented any certain new method which works for u personally?……………well congratulations to u my frnd,for getting ur freedom back…….so plzz help me to get my freedom back…….. .
Well the thing is that the persons who had never been abused drugs,may give u advice that” quiting drugs should be a chilkd’s play for me,if im in ur position”.But a person,who had actually been gone thru this hell(of drugs),may know the suffering and pain of another addict……….thanx for reading and hopefully answering…………….god xless u my frnd………
