Question by kc: Should I start a blog or website for addiction/recovery related information?
We have learned a great deal about recovering from narcotic addiction and have found several methods that work well. This is information drug treatment programs would not want out since it would cause them to lose a large number of patients. Would it be better to start with a blog or a website? We eventually hope to make this into an alternative business that would help people get of methadone clinics. Any advice would be greatly appreciated as there is a dire need for this information. Thank you.

Talk about how rough the resentment phase was on me, and how the drinking was gradually getting worse over time. Talk about being compelled to “do the right thing” and stop causing other people pain just because I was hurt. Come to the realization that I was not such a “great guy”, try to take responsibility for where I went wrong in the past, and express my desire to focus on the future and try to maintain positivity while giving up alcohol. Working on self forgiveness and forgiving those who have hurt or offended me. Video Rating: 0 / 5
STEP FIVE “———-confess with your mouth—” Ro 10: 9 “Therefore, confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed.” Jas 5: 16 “Now make confession to the Lord, the God of your fathers, and do his will.” Ezr 10: 11 “God opposes the proud but gives grace to the humble.” Jas 4: 6 “The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in men who are truthful.” Pr 12: 22 ADMITTED TO GOD, TO OURSELVES, AND TO ANOTHER HUMAN BEING THE EXACT NATURE OF OUR WRONGS. The Fifth Step is the second of the spiritual tools which the addicted person must learn to use and which will be used by him for the rest of his life in recovery. It is a vital and indispensable part of the process of recovery, for it requires the verbal admission of those things about the person which he has struggled to keep secret. The admissions must be not only to himself and to God, but to another human being. It is this very fact of revealing himself to another person which teaches him humility and honesty to a degree he has never before known. It also has the cleansing effect of confession which is necessary for the freeing of the soul from the tethers of secret guilt. If this Step is not taken, the addicted person will not recover from his addiction! The Fifth Step is designed to accomplish several objectives. First, the admission of defects (wrongs) which is a spiritual requirement in order to invoke God’s help in solving these problems. Second, learning to use the process of … Video Rating: 0 / 5

I have been doing Methadone for three years, now I am trying to get off of it. I am ten days into it. It is the hardest thing anyone could go through. I was wondering if I use oxycontin after withdrawing from methadone for ten days will it start the withdrawals all over again.
I’ve been on the drug for over a year now, and I’m tired. Tired of wasting all my money on it, my mind is tired, and my body is tired. I realize I can’t continue on this way, but at this point it’s all I know it seems. And in the back of my mind, I feel as if I’m going to be missing out on a lot of fun with a lot of new friends I’ve made. And then there’s the weight loss, sometimes I think that I’m addicted to the weight loss and not the drug. I can’t turn anywhere else for advice because the people that don’t know about, don’t need to find out and the ones that do are just as addicted as I am. I never thought I’d be in this boat, but now that I am, I need to find an oar.
I have a friend who is supposedly been clean for the last 8 months was a junkie but claims she has had no drugs in her system for that long. She went away for a few days then came home very aggressive looks like she has picked sores all over her face and bad mood swings. I think she has been using for a while but cant prove it so i would really like to know when the crawling under the skin starts to make you pick at your face.
