AbusersAnon.com – A help centre for domestic abusers

In many answers to questions you read people say negative things about Jeff, mainly him being a drug abuser. We all have things in our past we would like to change. That is the past, he is a kick a** wrestler. Who doesn’t have skeletons? Am I the only one who feels this way?

I agree with you; he’s not a drug abuser. I don’t believe he ever was; I have the book about him and Matt. The book didn’t mention anything about that. Jeff Hardy is amazing; he’s my 2nd favorite wrestler. Taker’s my favorite(can’t forget about the Dead Man).

What I mean is, when you catch someone with a fake prescription and it is obvious that they have aproblem do you get more excited to turn that person in, or feel bad that the person has an addiction and needs help. I agree, that you would need to call the police regardless of how you feel, but do you, deep inside, hope that the person gets help and recovers?

I am not associated with the medical industry at all. But I am a long term pain management patient from a serious spinal injury and 7 failed spine fusions.
It is my belief that most pharmacist can sniff out forged scripts. Should they call the police well i think that they have a obligation to. There are so many avenues for people who are addicted to drugs to go at no cost it is inexcusable but I also feel that the health care system may have some blame as well. I have heard of people that were being treated for a ligament medical condition and for what ever reason losses his insurance and his medical care. This person if taking the mesds as directed is most likely dependent on the drugs and when they can no longer get them crave them to help treat withdraw symptoms. I do feel bad for this type of person but a person who is forging scripts going dr. shopping to obtain controlled substances for street sale I have no compassion for. This just gives those of us that legitimately need this type of treatment a bad name. Sorry in advance if I hurt anyones feelings these are just my opinions.

Rush Limbaugh abused pain killers for years, and used illegal perscriptions to get them.

The "liberal" courts spared him going to prison, where most people would go for being a drug abuser.

Rush never thanked the "liberal" courts for letting him off easy.

Rush preaches personal responsibility. He should’ve practiced what he preached, and went to prison for his crimes. He is a hypocrite, that should be behind bars.

Why do Republicans listen to drug abusers, like Rush Limbaugh, for their information?
Joey, those two are the same person. And aren’t worthy of it.

Ignorance breeds fear, where little exists.
Savage is good to listen too, and makes more sense! Though I don’t agree with all his ideas.
Guess what….Michael Moore isn’t a drug addict either!

Rush is an on air personality, not a newscaster or journalist. So people listen to him for the entertainment factor, not to be informed.

I don’t know much information about the place but I have to go to an underage drug abusers program in a few days and I am just curious as to what questions will they ask me.

They will ask you about your partying, sex life, Your home life and relationship with your family. They will ask you about your school and what you want to do after school. They will try to find out the reason that you had a need to get high in the first place. What where you trying to hide from by self medicating. How you started. They will get very personal especially about your sex life or sexuality/morels. For some reason they think that how or what you do sexually is relevant to your drug abuse. Good luck and comply with them and you will find out that being sober isn’t that bad after all. Peace.

Should addicts be judged brutally, or should they be seen as people with a sickness, and pitied for their own self-destruction?
What about the youth of america? THe 15 year old kids that are overdosing on heroin and methenphedamines? They know what they are doing but, perhaps they are a little too naive to understand the consequences. Should there be more out there to help them, or is society lending out enough helping hands? Is there not a problem or is it their own damn fault? What can be done to clean up the youth of america?

If you mean that society takes more time in looking down on drug abusers instead of finding them help for their problems, I would agree to a degree. Abusers do indeed have a problem/sickness- addiction. This should not be taken lightly, but someone has to tell them the potentially hard truth, while doing something to help that person.

Opposite of what society or majority think, I do not feel that drug abusers are bad people. Like any living being, they have made a mistake, and should not be judged brutally for a mistake they made.

After three years of negotiation, my friend’s brother has finally agreed to check into a drug rehab and the whole family wants to support him. Are there rehab programs which provide talks or seminars about dealing with a family member who’s into drugs?

Yes, some drug rehabs offer programs to help the families of drug abusers. I’ve come across this information while I was reading about different drug rehabs in Texas (I’m going to ask my boyfriend to enter a rehab to put a stop into his addiction). I think the programs will help your friend’s family to forget about the pain caused by a family member’s problem with drugs. Give your friend all the support he needs because dealing with a person who abuses drugs is not easy.

No. Why is the government trying to save people from themselves? It’s just another example of the government being too intrusive. I should be free to do whatever I like, as long as it doesn’t hurt anyone else. And it’s a waste of tax money and prison space. We should concentrate more on catching real criminals and not criminalizing more people with ridiculous laws.

Lots, most of the heroin addicts will take it by iv methods. And you can’t go by the numbers of registered addicts, as there will be many many more that aren’t registered.

i find it funny that your mentioning the fact less conservatives are drug abusers, yet you have an avatar of a notorious, conservative drug abuser

yeah, you dont hear about conservative drug abusers because they are generally wealthy enough to get theirs via prescription rather than the street.

someone addicted to vicodin and valium is just as much a druggie as someone who smokes a J by the see-saw
