Question by Mill Boon: What are the recommended treatments for a person with alcoholism and drug problem at the same time?
Substance abuse is a big problem nowadays. Many people have seek for various kinds of early intervention in order to be treated. I would just like to know, if going to a rehabilitation center is the right thing to do for a person with these addiction problems.

Best answer:

Answer by PJ
Addiction is addiction.

Also – the treatment people make money whether their treatment is effective or not. They don’t have to come up with a different plan for different addictions.

The court doesn’t care what kind of treatment you get – as long as you get treatment. Mostly rehab and treatment are ineffective.

What do you think? Answer below!

US Backed CIA Afghan Puppet President Karzai ‘may have drug problem’

April 9, 2010 - 3:07 pm 11 Comments


Karzai a heroin addict? NEW YORK – A former UN envoy to Afghanistan on Tuesday questioned the “mental stability” of Hamid Karzai and suggested the Afghan president may be using drugs. In an interview on msnbc’s “The Daily Rundown,” Peter Galbraith described Karzai as “off-balance” and “emotional.” Galbraith also called for President Barack Obama to vastly limit Karzais power to appoint officials within the war-torn country until he proves himself a reliable partner to the US “Hes prone to tirades. He can be very emotional, act impulsively. In fact, some of the palace insiders say that he has a certain fondness for some of Afghanistans most profitable exports,” said Galbraith, in an apparent reference to opium or heroin. When asked whether he meant Karzai has a substance abuse problem, Galbraith responded: “There are reports to that effect. But whatever the cause is, the reality is that he is — he can be very emotional.” Galbraith was interviewed via telecast from Norway. An e-mail to the Afghanistan Embassy in Washington requesting a response was not immediately returned. Galbraith was fired by the United Nations in September as the UN’s No. 2 official in Afghanistan after he openly accused his boss, Kai Eide, of concealing election fraud that benefited the campaign of the incumbent president. Eide angrily denied the accusation.
