Question by exclamation mark: What mental disabilties do kids born addicted to crack or meth develop later on in life?

Best answer:

Answer by Festus
I think the kids already have a mental disability before they take their first hit of that stuff. Trying something out that you KNOW is almost immediately addictive is not high on any smart list. Because users of both will do anything to get more, the question is: Will they live to have a later life?

Q&A: Alcoholism to sobriety, then later social drinking?

Question by kittenl182: Alcoholism to sobriety, then later social drinking?
I understand that alcoholism is a disease/condition and that it’s defined as a person who has no control over their drinking, usually combined with depression and that abstinence is the only “cure” (for lack of a better term).

What I want to know is, is it possible for a true alcoholic to reach sobriety for a long time (and possibly cure their depression), and later be able to control their drinking such as in social settings? Are there cases of rehabilitation in such a manner?

NO…Too many alcoholics fall off the wagon and can’t get back on. I come from a family of alcoholism…on my dad’s side…I won’t go into this because it’s not what you asked, but let’s just say he helped DESTROY us!!!!!! I am the ONLY one who doesn’t drink and that is ONLY because of my son. I have to be the example he needs. I quit drinking 5 years and when he was young, started back occasionally…Occasionally got to be more often, until I “visioned” my son 10 years later, getting ready to go out with friends, and I said, don’t be out drinking tonight and he said, why not you do it? Then and there, I swore, I’d NEVER drink again!!!!!! Do I still crave it? YES!!!! Was I an alcoholic? I honestly think I was and if it wasn’t for my son, I would have my liver messed up and all the problems, my brothers have.
