I saw the commercial and would like to try them but am wondering if anyone else out there has any experience with them, negative or positve?

Answer:

They are so expensive…why not try Epsom salts in the bath instead…you should get the same or more benefit at a fraction of the cost. Eating healthily, drinking filtered water and lots of fruit smoothies and preferably organic produce can all help….and of course staying away from toxins…especially cigarette smoke. NO toxin remover would give much benefit if this was not accompanied by a healthy eating plan and also exercise.

Best wishes.

My boyfriend did a cleanse today before a test, but the place was closed when he got there. I was wondering if he should purchase another cleanse for another day or if he’ll be okay without it?

Answer:

Detox drinks, pills, etc are scams. Nothing pulls the dope out of your body, except time.

Just wondering. I keep getting headaches, and tension in my neck and shoulders nearly everyday. There is really no reason.

Answer:

Try working out sessions like running, swimming.
Sweat till you drop exercises.
Do stretching exercises.
Rather than going for detox, I would suggesting working out a lot every single day and refrain from drinking alcohol and eating artificial sugar, not smoking and not doing drugs.
Always eat everything in moderation.

Do yoga and sleep,sit and walk in correct posture.
Stiffness of neck can be associated with stress as well.

I am at home. There is no starting over. I did without for 48 hours and then used once.About 18 hours ago, and I don’t feel too crappy.Just wondering what tomorrow will be like.

Answer:

Yes. If you are dependant to an opiate and detoxing and take a dose during withdrawals you will just be back where you started after the dose wears off. It is basicallly torture to do that. The best thing you can do is just keep to it and not take anything. Even after 4-6 month of being clean if i would use for 1 day i would still get a minor withdrawal day. 2 days of use in a row and i would need 3 days of w/d.

I am currently going to school for pre-health with a nursing concentration, until I have the requirements to apply for nursing. I would like to be able to work as an RN in a substance abuse facility. I was wondering if anyone could give me any advise as to how to go about doing this? I do not know if I will need to specialize in a certain area in order to do so or not? If anyone could help me out in regards to what to do education wise I would really appreciate it! Thanks!

Answer:

Hi,

First off, good for you for wanting to work in addiction treatment! I’m an addictions counselor and have been working in mental health (mostly suicide prevention) for 7 years and we certainly need more qualified RNs in the field. So I think you will have an easy time finding work once you’re finished with school.

As for your question… To become an RN, you need to go to nursing school. Although I’m sure you already know this. As for specializing in addiction treatment, I don’t believe there are any additional requirements, but it would be good if you have experience working with addicts or at least a greater knowledge of treating clients with addiction. So I would suggest trying to get an internship of some sort with a treatment center in your area. They may not let you do much while you’re in school, but you will be able to put it on your resume. You can learn a lot from observing how things work in treatment. The other suggestion I have would be to take some extra classes that focus on substance abuse. Drug addicts and alcoholics face a variety of special issues separate from the “normal” population you would be working with in a hospital. Most community colleges and some universities now offer programs where you can learn more about these issues. I don’t know where you live, but you may want to start looking for college programs titled “Addictions Counseling” or “Addictions Studies.” Classes you may want to take would be any type of pharmacology, a bloodborne pathogens/infectious disease class, and even alternative treatments to addiction classes. It could also help to take a few classes for addictions counselors like group therapy, individual therapy, or something similar. These will definitely help you in the future in terms of communicating with your clients.

The most important thing I would think an RN working in addiction should have to be educated about is prescription drugs of abuse. Normally when I do an intake on a client coming into treatment, they have been medically prescribed multiple addictive drugs that only contribute to and exacerbate their disease (addiction). Usually these include opiate painkillers, benzodiazepines, and other sedatives and tranquilizers. I had a client once who was on NINE different benzos which she had been on for years, all prescribed by doctors for things like insomnia, anxiety, and even hypothyroidism. This is so egregious and disgusting to me! They were killing her. She obviously had to be medically detoxed for risk of seizures and death from her meds. And needless to say, after being evaluated by our MD, she didn’t NEED any of the pills.

Anyway, I’m rambling. Just excited to see someone wanting to help in the field of addiction treatment. It is rare these days, it seems. But what a satisfying and rewarding job. Good luck to you!!!

Other than suboxone, I’m dealing with alot of anxiety, and a lot of Post Acute Withdrawl Syndrome. I was wondering if it would be a good idea to take Xanax or other benzo’s for that. And if so, how long should those medications be taken

Answer:

First of all what is the opiate that you are detoxing from? Also how severe is your problem? Are you an actual addict or are you someone who developed a dependency on them (I.e. a person who had some type of surgery or accident and had to be treated for pain for pro-longed periods of time)? If you are an addict, then I would try to steer clear of benzos, as you will end up replacing one vice for another and just be in the same situation with a different drug class.

If your dependency or addiction to opiates is extreme then it is possible that benzos or some other type of sedative hypnotic may be necessary, or you may need to be put on methadone or buprenorphrine, but again, it is all dependent on your unique situation.
