How to Find Addiction Treatment Centers in Boerne, Texas That Can Handle Cases of Prescription Drug Addiction?
Question by callista t: How to find addiction treatment centers in Boerne, Texas that can handle cases of prescription drug addiction?
I have a friend who happens to be addicted to sleeping pills. It started out as a need because she’s insomniac, but for some reason, she has found a way to experience euphoria from use of the drug. She buys a lot and when I asked her what she uses it for, she even cajoled me to try. I would like to find an addiction treatment center so I can find out more information about this kind of addiction and maybe then I can get someone to talk to her about her condition.
Can I Live With My Grandparents?
Question by Britney: Can I live with my grandparents?
I am 17 years old and my mom has moved 3 times in the past 3 years and she wants to move again. You see what happened was my mom was living with her boyfriend and he did a whole bunch of drugs and he was an alcoholic and he would come home in the middle of the night and argue and abuse my mom. My siblings and I had to go to multiple court hearings and we even had the state come to our school and question us about what happened at home, they wanted to take us away from my mom but my mom always told us to be careful about what we say to them or we’ll never see her again. So, Like she said I didn’t tell them everything that went on and my mom left the house we were living in to move in with my grandparents, While her boyfriend is in rehab, We’ve been living here for almost a year. But you see, He is about to get out of rehab and I’m certain that she’s only moving out so he’ll have a place to live and everything is going to happen all over again. I do not want to move with my mom. I lived with her and her boyfriend’s nonsense since I was in the 5th grade and I’m a senior this year. I have my own room living with my grandparents, and my mom wants me to move into a house where I’ll have to share a room with my brother AND sister.

Question by tihspidaru: What should making “amends” mean when someone gets clean from a drug addiction?…?
11 years ago i tried to help a long time childhood friend that was in a rut back in our home town…we grew up together so i felt that i could help him…i bought him a plane ticket from michigan to arizona so that he could get a teaching position as they were plentiful there…i lent/sent him money to get things settled and so he could get a place to stay when he got in arizona…the very first night he was in arizona he stole my car…i didn’t see him until four days later when he showed up at my door looking like total crap and without my car…to find out, he had gone on a crack and meth binge blowing all of the money he had and the money i had left him…he had “sold” my car to get more drugs…the car was recovered wrecked and with total engine damage…me and a friend took him to a rehab place where he could live…he would have to work and pay them from what he made and go through all their programs…well, in no time he got kicked out of that for not following the rules (not getting high)…i only heard from him a few times when he would try and con money out of me and ask me for a ride…now 11 years later he finally contacts me telling me he has his life together and has been clean for 7 years and is getting married, is getting his masters degree, has a 4 bedroom house, and 2 cars…he has apologized and said he needed to make “amends” with me…well, i am very happy he has his life together…this person basicaly ripped me off and cost me thousands of dollars…since that time i have went on disability due to neck and back injuries and now live a very meager life in an efficiency apartment with no car and absolutely no extra money to even be able to go to a movie once a month…is sorry supposed to make up what he did to me?…i am happy for him, but should he not pay me back the money that his “drugging” cost me?…i forgive him, but how is just saying sorry supposed to make everything right?…would it be wrong for me to ask that he pay me back, especialy when he is doing so well and i am not now?…thank you for any advice you can give me…and i don’t need to hear how stupid i was for helping him when he had “used” my generosity before!…thanks, i already know that!…lol…
