14 year old ADHD, online scamming/bitcoin
He completed a cannabis
addiction
program back in October and is sober from that. He's never used other drugs ( he was tested and continues to be) I think that
addiction
has formed into a new one online. I also had a neuropsych test done and he just got an IEP at school.

Going back to my passions
It was/is an
addiction
that has stopped me from doing what I love for years. I’m at a point in my life where I can feel myself dying rapidly as I lay in my bed mindlessly scrolling or tapping away on my screen. And it’s suffocating. I don’t want to feel that way anymore.

I'm Back....
I'm also wondering if I'm an addict.....I've been on a sleeping medication (I don't think I get real sleep.....it just seems to sedate me for several hours) since I was in the hospital (6 months ago) and I've been reading about
addiction
to prescription medications.

codeine
I’m hoping that once my iron levels are okay I’ll be able to stop the codeine but I’m worried about
addiction
in the meantime.

change your mind
alcohol is an
addiction
not a disease. Anyone can become addicted if they drink a lot for a long period of time. It’s really no different than smoking or shooting up heroin. We have to re wire our brain to stop the habit of being addicted.

Disaster in Texas
I was totally unaware that she has a serious drug
addiction
. Long story short, she became uncontrollable and called the police. They arrested her and put on the mental ward for evaluation. Her kids were left with me. A 5 month old and a 10 year old.

Pain Relief Help and Information
[/i] [i]
Nothing is helping and each time I call the doctor it's like he fobs me off because he will not give me anything with opioids due to past
but anything with opioids is the only thing that will help the pain.

Thank you!
I know many doctors won't prescribe them because of the danger of
addiction
, but I could not have managed without them. I still having trouble sleeping - I have done so all my life due to a 'busy brain' but, without the torture of restless legs any longer, I just put up with it.

Here’s to the next part and the best part of my life!
It’s an
addiction
. Planning things that didn’t involve having a drink became “boring” for me. If I really felt I didn’t fancy a drink I would ensure not to get one (probably to convince myself this wasn’t an issue).
