It's kind of funny how the flower children of the sixties evolved to be the wealthiest generation of all time. The points you make about addiction are spot on. I can sympathize because it doesn't take much to get hooked on pain or sleeping pills. .-= Kent´s last blog ..<a href="http://bestplasticchairs.com/decorating-with-plastic-chairs">Decorating With Plastic Chairs</a> =-.

I agree that there are meds prescribed by doctors which are also addictive. Person taking these cannot stop using them and becomes addicted! They are not much different from addictive drugs...only thing is that these meds are not by choice but to recover from some illness. I liked you thought of being engaged in one’s treatment ... an individualized care helps in recovery of the affected faster! - Jay This is an interesting article Bill.

Among these folks there is a huge stigma on drug addiction, they have ideas of opiate addicts in the street etc. The idea that they have becone addicted to these same opiates and benzos simply by using Dr prescibed meds is puzzling. In this population addiction to any substance is very, very frquently overlooked or misdiagnosed by doctors. Bill Carol,

However it still has some pretty bad side effects. Hopefully they are doing their drinking at home.
