Question by desperate: I was told there is a treatment for people addicted to meth like a rapid treatment used for herion addicts?
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…

Question by Looking For Cats: My question is about Narconon and AA. I have been told in yahoo answers that they do not work.?
is there anyone who can tell me why they do not work, why they are funded by the government if they do not work, why people are being sent to them by the legal system and why they are so popular if they do not work? this is all very frustrating to me as I have a 12 year old little girl who has some problems, we are trying the NA and the AA and nothing seems to be working. thanks for your input.

Answer by Chiro has the answer
I believe these places can work, but honestly, the addict or one with the problem seriously needs to “want” to be helped. This is rare because if there is an addiction there and a desire for that “high” feeling, that is so hard to shake off. It’s like not being able to function without that cup of coffee in the morning or that hot bath at night.

My AA friend said they told him he was on a “dry drunk”. What is a dry drunk?

If a person is drunk and exhibits a common behaviour that is found in many people under the influence of alcohol, then is “dry” for a period of time and experiences normal human mood fluxuations, why does Alcoholics Anonymous say he is on a “dry drunk”? Seems to me like it is a no win situation within the AA doctrine. What is going on here and is it healthy to make such comments to people trying to abstain from alcohol and other drugs?
