Some ideas, these are not all very original but hey!

1. Built in chat function.

2. Forum.

3. Ability for users of the site to register and setup their own profiles. They could then list any addictions in the profile and search for other people with the same addictions to chat with, by email, personal message etc.

Medical-Addiction Question?

Question by Brett H: Medical-addiction Question?
Hey, I’m 26 and have been reliant upon opiates since I was 18. Finally, at 23 and after months of fatigue/sickness, countless attempts at anti-depressants, treatment centers, counseling, and psychiatrists, I began methadone at the Southern Indiana Treatment Center. At first I felt much better, but rather than decrease the dose my levels were increased to “find me a stable dose where I feel semi-normal.”. Needless to say I am now on 110 mg of methadone once daily. I still feel crappy half the time and have started realizing that my body, with the way it metabolizes medicine so quickly, may never be OK without it. The peak-and-trough blood serum test suggests my body needs 140. Should I accept the fact that my body will always need opiates? Anyone have any suggestions?

Nar A Non, look in the phone book for Narcotics Anonymous or Alcoholics Anonymous. I know for members of AA they have Al-A-Non for family members. It is free all you have to do is go to meetings. They have schedules of meetings in your area. You can also call the local mental health hotline and ask them or the hospital in your area.
