Question by Iamshan: Any drug rehabilitation counselors out there?
For an assignment in class, I need to interview a drug rehabilitation counselor. I don’t have time to go out and meet with one.
1. background and professional preparation for such a position
2. the most difficult part of the job
3. the most satisfying part of the job
4. what he or she has learned on the job
5. some generalizations about this counselor’s clients
Best answer:
Answer by luke
1. I grew up in a neighborhood where drugs ruined many people’s lives. I wanted to do something about.
I went to school for psychology and social work. But the most important thing you can do to prepare is to have compassion and not quick to judge.
2. The most difficult part of my job is dealing with those who refuse any kind of help, because they can easily bring down those making an effort. Specifically, people who relapse (or worse!) when they showed so much promise that they really wanted to change
3. The most satisfying is prevention. Its a long and difficult road to recovery for full blown addicts, but the younger ones who are dabbling with pot and drinking i try to make it so they leave never ever wanting to touch a needle.
4. Do NOT f*** with heroin
5. I work at a private in patient rehab in missouri. The alcholics are ussually older- upper 40s to early 60s and up. Those that use street drugs are usually younger- 20s to very early 30s. Probsbly 85% of them use nicotine, which we allow. OTher then that there is ussually a surprisingly large cross section of society. We get dealers, housewives, business men, working class heroes, engineers, farmers, punks, gays. A lot of these people a f***ed in the head, and are totally beyond rehabilitation. Just last week we had a lady thatwas in her early 30′s and really fat. She was here because of a court order, complete 4 weeks of rehab or lose her kids and go to jail for 2 years. 3 weeks in it turned out she had been shooting up in her room and was drinking scope.
But thats why i keep going. its all for the few that do change so they never get into a situation like that

is there a difference between amphetamines and methamphetamines?

Question by cindi: is there a difference between amphetamines and methamphetamines?
Best answer:
Answer by David M
Yes, the difference is a methyl group on the amine portion of the molecule. Methamphetamine has an N-methyl group while amphetamine does not. The extra methyl group dramatically affects the compounds observed biological effect as well – in this case, increasing the strength of the drug dramatically…
Amphetamine = Ph-CH2-CH(NH2)-CH3
Methamphetamine = Ph-CH2-CH(NHCH3)-CH3
Hope this helps!!!

Is it true that there are more teens to be found in drug rehabilitation centers than adults?

Question by delila f: Is it true that there are more teens to be found in drug rehabilitation centers than adults?
I have a friend who has just gotten out of inpatient rehabilitation and he has told me that there are a lot of other teens spending their time there. I was just wondering why this is.
Best answer:
Answer by dariana b
I think the reason why there were more teens spending their time in the drug rehabilitation center that your friend has just gotten out of is the fact that teens are more likely to get themselves addicted to drugs. Peers play a very important role with regard to whether a teen will start taking drugs or not. Those who don’t do drugs during their teenage years are also less likely to start taking it when they grow older. Every day, around 4,800 Americans under the age of 18 try marijuana for the first time. This is why the government and other organizations are trying to prevent more teens from taking drugs.

I am looking for the type of treatment that like a rapid detox for hereon users, this treatment involves clinic visits where you go in and they hook you up to something that cleans out your system thus taking away the toxins and also eliminates the cravings, the falling asleep effects, etc…
