Lisa2525 3 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 Hi guys! My friends have a huge problem - they've just found out their son was addicted to drugs. I'd prefer not to go into details but to make a long story short, they are looking for a drug rehab and need a couple of pieces of advice. I found a list of best drug rehabs in California https://addictionresource.com/drug-rehab/ (they live in Sacramento), but I can't be sure if they worth their money. Maybe, somebody has dealt with drug rehabs and can share his/her experience. I'd be very appreciated! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
g22 3,086 Posted January 9, 2019 Report Share Posted January 9, 2019 @Lisa2525 First there son need to really want to stop himself and to be far from his friends that stay doing that. start a sport try to make him addict to sport and some drugs need medication to stop and with some other drugs is better to stop drinking alcoole too and better for him to smoke goed weed 😁 Some people can change Some people can't change Some finish living on the street Or in the psychiatric asylum,jail........ Wat do you call addict ? real drugs cost a lot of money One of my friends son smoke and take club drugs and is not a problem but you can not change him 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gasmeter 2,736 Posted January 10, 2019 Report Share Posted January 10, 2019 Hi @Lisa2525 I agree with @g22 your friends son needs to really want to stop using whatever substance he is struggling with, otherwise it is a waste of everybody's time trying to help them if they do not wish to help themselves to quit using the substance they are struggling with. I know this from experience, I spent over 30 years addicted to opiates and coke, I would get clean for a few months and soon back slide into another habit. I note you say he "was" addicted, if he has stopped using then half the battle is won, he now needs to focus on living without using and keeping busy to fill his time with positive things and learn to overstand your friends are your enemy, if they are not down with him getting clean fuck them off they are not friends. People who encourage you to do bad shit are not your friends, good friends will encourage you to do good for yourself and in the neighbourhood and be a better person not a selfish ares hole who only wishes to take from everyone around them. Rather than spend money on rehab I would suggest finding an ex addict who is now living clean who he can relate to and help him get strong again and forward in life. I hope this helps. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

sliver1 217 Posted January 11, 2019 Report Share Posted January 11, 2019 I don't live in America, but I have to agree with the others. He might not need rehab, he need something else to fill his life. Going out from rehab he will have nothing to do and possibly slide back. If he has stuff he cares about to do all day he will see that the drugs are only keeping him from doing his stuff. Fishing was good for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Bella69 0 Posted February 7 Report Share Posted February 7 I can't quite put the whole story in my head. Even when I smoke, I can't think of elegant outcomes. But don't think about it, I don't abuse anything at all just use marijuana as a sedative and treatment. I don't even understand why many people are against it and the fact is that we have been convinced for many, many years that marijuana is evil. As a result, society is convinced that cannabis is an unspeakably harmful drug, leading to severe addiction and imminent death, if not physical, then at least social. But no one who blames marijuana really knows what it is or what specific harm it does. For example, I chose the ideal option for myself on OrganicCBDNugs.com only after reading the reviews. I didn't regret it at all! _________________________________________________ https://organiccbdnugs.com Quote Link to post Share on other sites
