SteveFord Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 You're probably better off. Caffeine withdrawal is REALLY bad. I gave up after 1 day and back to coffee it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mihcmac Posted September 5, 2020 Share Posted September 5, 2020 "Kids are different today" I hear ev'ry mother say Mother needs something today to calm her down And though she's not really ill There's a little yellow pill She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day Doctor please, some more of these Outside the door, she took four more What a drag it is getting old "Life's just much too hard today" I hear ev'ry mother say The pursuit of happiness just seems a bore And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jvi Posted September 6, 2020 Author Share Posted September 6, 2020 I believe "mothers little helper " came from a doctor, many of the current drug problems started at the doctors office NOT just on street corners from shady creeps. Over prescribing raked in millions and killed or led many to the dark side. YES I value doctors, most not all... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what they use to put you under for major surgery! A fairly unique approach to treating insomnia. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fortyearspickn Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Anti-depressants which, if you stop taking them suddenly, will drive you into a depression so deep - you might intentionally OD on something else. And some people will blame the gun, and not the big, fat, rich pharma-billionaire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uncle fester Posted September 6, 2020 Share Posted September 6, 2020 Peace to all who's struggling with it. I got a nephew who got messed up with heroin, now he has a baby, no license, new job every month and a crack whore girl who's the mother of the baby. So, good luck to all, addiction sucks.

How about this then: Alcohol is the approved drug of choice. Why? Seems like a lot of people die from using alcohol. It's just another drug, right? Do you support banning alcohol? We tried that once in the US. It was a huge success. I work as a therapist and this statistic is absolutely right. However, nowadays everyone can get a chance to overcome abuse. For years of work I have had a lot of patients and I had period in my life, when I was using drugs, but my counselor helped me to become myself again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
