I do know that they’re somehow interrelated. I was just curious as to how addiction treatment could possibly lessen the spreading of the aforementioned diseases.

Answer by alicia c
Drug addiction treatment would be able to reduce the spread of AIDS/HIV because drugs users are more likely to get affected by such diseases. Treating drug addicts will definitely help. Studies have shown that those who inject drugs who do not let themselves get subjected to treatment are six times more liekly to get infected with HIV or AIDS, as opposed to those who let themselves get treated.

My Daughter Needs Drug Rehab but We Can’t Afford It, Any Suggestions?

Question by bumble100bee: my daughter needs drug rehab but we can’t afford it, any suggestions?
My daughter is addicted to heroin, we cant afford drug rehab. Rehab costs about $ 7500.00 a month. She has been arrested twice. I have been trying to help her but there is nothing I can really do. Heroin is a bad drug to withdrawal from, and she is trying to do it herself. She doesn’t have insurance and I am on such a tight budget. Without help the chances are she will start using again. She gets violent when she is trying to withdrawal. I worry because she has a two-year old girl and I don’t want my grandchild to be raised around it. I pay for the baby to go to the sitter. Her boyfriend, (the babies father) is no help because he is addicted too. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I noticed the the nasty answers, let me clarify, Childrens services is involved. My daughter and grandchild live with me and I pay for and take her to the sitter everyday. There is no help where I live at. She is not on parole so I cant go to the court for help. This is the first time in weeks I have been on my computer, thank you, and I got it to get her some help.

How Can Question #2 Be Revoked?

Question by hal n: how can question #2 be revoked?
i just heard the “governor” deval patrick, can somehow alter the legislature that was just passed in massachusetts to decriminalize small amounts of cannabis. how is this possible? this is a democracy… right? i don’t smoke, i think smoking anything is harmful to the lungs, and i have never smoked pot, and even i think it is ridiculous that it is illegal.

i am 17 years old, and i am tired of the minority (no pun intended) controlling the majoridy. seeing how deval is going to be baracks little puppet, and barack has stated how he feels about decriminalization, the worlds most useless governor will keep his mouth shut.

Rehab or Substance Abuse Program?

Question by Angel Stokes: Rehab or Substance abuse program?
I don’t know anything about either. But my husband is a felon, and on probation. He apparently has been doing stuff lately. He is being accused of stealing. Don’t know if he did, or not…

He wants rehab… He wants to be done with this. He’s done great for so long (I think peer pressure has a lot to do with it) Because he has been clean for 2 years…

I don’t know if how this will go, but it doesn’t look good. My husband truly is a good guy, he’s been taking crunchbars lately, and he doesn’t remember anything… He’s just got a bad problem.
