Pure OCD
Finally my brother who got aware of my
addiction
helped me recover and directed me to a psychologist and psychiatrist where finally in my 30’s I was diagnosed with pure ocd. Meds helped a lot but not fully. You can relapse any time like I did now.

OCD is just another addiction. Part II:
All humans need to feel good, when it doesn't come naturally by ourselves, we give this power over us to either a certain external factor, person, behavior (Compulsions), or drug, to do it for us, for the reward of relaxation, feeling good with ourselves and about ourselves. Obsessions/Intrusive thoughts

Phase 1 of harpoon trial At OHSU. Two weeks of the worst part behind me.
My first inpatient infusion is on the 8th of sept, my experience was interesting to say the least, my first infusion was like, what I could only imagine Detoxing from a heroin
addiction
. For about 10 to 15 hours and then it subsided and I was back to about 90%.

Advice on Dealing with Spouse Family --Addiction issues
My husband's twin brother just died of alcoholism.

Sugar addiction?
Is sugar an
addiction
, a problem? People keep telling me just eat healthier foods and pay attention to when your hungry. I’m just so frustrated hearing that over and over because unfortunately that doesn’t help me.

Help with neural pain, and Morphine addiction.
Hi there, I two problems really. The first, I got infected with the Chicken Pox virus, which infected almost half of my brain.

Hello all, CURIOUS-What are people’s experiences with addiction issues and ADHD?
I have had my own struggles with
addiction
(most notably alcohol) and I am wondering about others. I am in recovery and doing a lot of work finding a place where 12 step/ADHD work/therapy/spiritually all begin to dovetail. Really interested in others experiences.

Why are benzos so vilified and how do I bring this up with a new doctor without sounding like a drug seeker?
In terms of
addiction
, withdrawal and dependence, perhaps I am in the minority, but the absolute worst withdrawal I have experienced is from antipsychotics.

Pain management denied by gp
The reason they do this is because this surgery is largely for homeless people and although I have not been homeless for 2 years and never have taken heroin they deal with so much
addiction
they have developed these policys.
