Eminem: ‘Must Be the Ganja’ Album: Relapse Date of Release: 5/19/09 Record Label: Shady/Aftermath **So how did Eminem spend his time off? Drugs, mostly. “I fall in bed with a bottle of meds and a Heath Ledger bobblehead” doesn’t even begin to cover it. Relapse, Em’s first album in nearly five years, is studded with brand names, but not Lexus or Cristal — more like Lunesta, Ambien, Vicodin, Valium, NyQuil and other brain candy that helped Marshall Mathers turn himself into a zombie, before he got clean last year. It’s hard to keep all the drugs on this album straight, but that’s probably the point. Relapse is like a hip-hop version of Richard Pryor’s Live on the Sunset Strip, the classic 1982 stand-up flick where Pryor makes the audience squirm through jokes about freebase addiction and setting himself on fire. If it’s stronger than his last album, Encore, that’s because Em’s doing what he does best: cleaning out his closet. And there’s more psychotic shit piled up in there than ever. The power of Relapse comes from Em aiming his beat-downs at his truest target, himself. By letting Dr. Dre take over the low-end-funk production, and rhyming about things he actually cares about, he comes up with a more painful, honest and vital record than anyone could have expected at this late date, up there with The Eminem Show or maybe even better. The album it recalls most is his 1999 major-label debut, The Slim Shady LP, from the stripped-down Dre beats to the self-lacerating wordplay … Video Rating: 4 / 5

Hello guys, I’m a student and I’m currently studying recipes of cocktails online. I don’t have any bartending background except for my love of the different cocktails the world has to offer. Since I want to learn how to mix cocktails, what are the most advisable cocktails I should master? Both non-alcoholic and alcoholic).
read da title dipshit n sikk pix x dont own this song jaja I got the song from: www.mp3raid.com Lyrics: Dear diary, mood; Apathetic my life is spiraling downwards, I could’nt get enough money to go to the ‘blood fed romance’ and ‘Suffocate me dry’ concert. it sucks cause they play some of my favourite songs, like ‘Stab my heart coz i love you’ and ‘Rip apart my soul’ and of course ‘Stab me rip stab stab.’ And it doesn’t help that I couldn’t get my hair to do that flippy thingy either, like that guy from that band can do. Some days….. I’m an Emo kid, non conformist as can be, you’d be non conformist to if you looked just like me. I have paint on my nails and make-up on my face. I’m almost Emo enough to start shaving my legs. Coz i feel real deep when I’m dressing in drag, Some call it ‘freedom of expression’ most just call me a fag. Coz our dudes look like chicks and our chicks look like dykes, because Emo is one step below transvestite. [chorus] Stop my breathing and slit my throat, I must be Emo. I don’t jump around when I go to shows, I must be emo. I’m dark, insensitive with low self esteem, the way i dress makes everyday feel like halloween. I have no real problems but i like to make believe, I stole my sisters mascara so I’m grounded for a week. Sulking and writing poetry are my hobbies, I can’t get through a Hawthorne heights album without sobbing. Girls keep breaking up with me, it isn’t any fun, they say they already have a pussy, they don’t need another one …
YAEV = yet another emo video! this one’s a bit different; I love emo, and i know this song is anti, but i think it’s so hilarious, i just HAD to make a video with it. enjoy! To EVERYONE: When doing this movie, I searched for images with the keyword “emo”, thus all boys or girls in this movie have some (whether real or not) connection with them. So please don’t rant about that you’re boyfriend is in this movie and that he’s not emo, I don’t care – he shouldn’t had put up a picture of himself on a page that had something to do with emos. By the way – how many times must I say it – EMO’s ARE HOT and do NOT deserve to be treated as negatively as society does at the moment – start loving them, they don’t cut themself, that’s the biggest mistake everyone commits when thinking so. This movie was made as something fun – NOT AS AN INSULT TO them – once again, I love them! PS. I myself am not emo, just so you know; I just thought the idea was worth making a movie of. DS. Another note: I REMOVE ALL OFFENSIVE OR STUPID COMMENTS. End of story! I love you all!
Families who bring in their members for heroin addiction treatment are usually grossly unaware how this form of treatment is. It is true that heroin is widely acknowledged as the strongest form of addiction. This is because of the inherent manner in which heroin acts. Heroin is an opioid and being that it targets specific areas of the person’s central nervous system as soon as it is consumed. This is what causes the person to have the heroin high. However, over time, the person’s brain will adjust to the heroin dosage it is getting and that is why there will be an increased craving for the substance.
This is why it becomes very difficult to get a person out of the tendency for using heroin. The heroin rehab centers have to do all they can before they can successfully bring the person out of the tendency. The person’s brain keeps the addiction on even if the body wants to come out of the habit. Due to this, mere counseling and other forms of mild treatment do not work when it comes to heroin recovery.
What heroin addiction treatment needs is a strong medical as well as nonmedical approach at treatment. This is only provided in a rehab center that has all the requisite facilities. Let us take a look at these two aspects of heroin addiction treatment.
The Medical Part of Heroin Addiction Treatment
Medication is required while treating a heroin addiction because the temptation for the drug needs to be alleviated. This cannot be done through mere counseling because of the strong addictive nature of the drug. In heroin treatment, two kinds of medical treatments are popular: the first uses methadone and the second uses buprenorphine.
Methadone has been used since over thirty years for heroin treatment in the US, while buprenorphine is used only since about a decade. The newer versions of buprenorphine, named Subutex and Suboxone, have only been recently approved by the FDA for heroin treatment. That is the reason people still have more faith in methadone. However, there are some faults with the methadone treatment that are veering people towards buprenorphine treatment.
Both methadone and buprenorphine are opioids just like heroin is. When they are consumed, they can reduce the person’s temptation for heroin. In fact, the medications will act on the same areas of the brains where heroin acts. The need for heroin is allayed with the dosages of these medicines. As long as buprenorphine or methadone is taken in the right amount, the person will feel a much reduced inclination for using heroin.
However, methadone is habit-forming and so is buprenorphine to a lesser extent. That is the reason why methadone should be provided only in an inpatient treatment setting. If the dosage goes awry, there’s a chance that the person will develop a methadone addiction. In that case, it will become difficult to bring the person out of the methadone usage itself. There might be a withdrawal process for methadone. With buprenorphine, this is not much the case. The substance is not quite as habit-forming as methadone is. For that reason, buprenorphine treatment is mostly given in outpatient format, but this is unthinkable with methadone.
The choice of the medication is very important in the overall treatment program. The way in which the recovery will progress and also the costs of the treatment will depend on that.
The Nonmedical Part of the Addiction Treatment
This begins as soon as the person is put into treatment. It is important to counsel the patient to work up the determination that is needed to get into the program. Even during the detox, there are some nonmedical approaches used, such as certain therapies that can help the person keep away from feeling strong temptations for the substance. The counseling continues after the detox too, and forms a very important part of the aftercare. Here, among other things, one thing that will be seen is whether the patient has some emotional or psychological problems that are keeping them with the addiction. If there are some problems like that, the patients are coached on what methods they can use to disassociate their addiction for their mental setup so that they can be individually treated.
Education is also a big part of the heroin aftercare. Here the patient is taught about the repercussions of the addiction and what methods can be used to attain complete recovery. In most centers, the families of the patients will also be provided an educational program so that they can learn how to cope with the addiction and become instrumental in bringing the person to complete recovery.
