Question by ricker712: Is it legal for an employer to make an employee leave a inpatient drug treatment center early?
I was in an inpatient treatment center and my employer made me leave early to keep my job. I was in there for 4 weeks and wanted to stay for 90 more days in which i was able to leave for work everyday. All I needed my employer to do was switch me with a summer help employee. The summer help comes every may to help anyone that needs time off. My employer refused to switch me with another employee that agreed to switch with me.

What Do You Think of This Quote?

Question by Claire K: What do you think of this quote?
I was reading a book about a woman who overcame drug addiction. It is a very old and odd ball book but I found it in an old bookstore. This quote struck me. What do you think of it?

“For three years, I swam in thick, gooey molasses which was sometimes warm and sometimes freezing. Sometimes very dark as well. I was quickly pulled out twice, but then slipped and fell in again. I am coming out again, this time, on my own.”

Drugs Really Changed Me?

Question by Emily.: Drugs really changed me?
Please help me, I’m only fourteen but fifteen in three days. In about September I started drinking a lot more than I did and taking drugs. I smoked weed often and did e whenever I got the chance. I’d drink rougly two thirds of a bottle of vodka a day, and this would be in school as well as out of. After a while, teachers started noticing and my friends didn’t like it. One friend got worried and told a teacher about me drinking who phoned home and the social services were involved. I thought I’d totally stop, but I haven’t. I don’t really drink anymore but I smoke cigarettes and still smoke weed. About two months ago I tried LSD and kept having it even though I had horrible trips. I haven’t taken it for a while now because the person getting it me has stopped and it was really messing me up. I can’t eat much anymore, I’m pushing everyone I love away from me but I’ve been off the drugs for a while. I know I’m depressed and I never go out with people anymore, I don’t get much sleep and
I often find I’m crying when I don’t actually feel upset. A lot of personally bad things have happened recently and they’ve really upset me but I seem to be unable to show my emotion. I’m stubborn and determined not to show I’m weak or vulnerable and I can’t ask for help because of this. I really want to stop being this way because I’m losing close friends, I’m suicidal and all that’s keeping me going is my two year old sister. It’s like I’m just living each day the same constantly and all I’m doing is to make sure I’m not a failure to my little sister who is everything to me – but I know I am and it’s really upsetting me. Please help, I don’t know where I’m going or what I’m doing any more and I’m too stubborn, scared and uncomfortable to talk to anyone about it
