Copy and print out the post to show the doctor why you need the medication and be honest.

Oh, Some at NA are anti-drugs (all drugs, except cigs), but many are not and are on medication from their doctors. That is what swim would do if she/he was you. Go today, look up Narcotics Anonymous, go to the meeting talk to other addicts and ask them for a doctor who believes in "dual diagnosis." In other words a Doctors who believes that one can treat addiction with other drugs. These recovering addicts will help you find a doctor that will prescribe you the medicine.

Tell swim who is making this world a better place?

The DEA whose laws and policies jail otherwise law abiding citizens. If caught with 5 grams of meth, the swim gets to withdrawl without any medication in a 8x10 locked cell for 5 years. If the DEA pops a dealer, the quantity of the drug decreases thus increasing the price. This results in users committing more burglaries to feed their habit. In otherwords, crime goes up in the community.

Renegades offers a different solution. The addict with the chemical cocktail can withdrawl from the chemical easily and continue her day activites. She stops using immediately when she begins on the cocktail. Thus she stops using and buying and stealing, the quantity of the drug goes up, prices come down, thus there is less crime such as break-ins to feed the other addicts. Imagine if a large majority of meth addicts were able to quit what would happen to the crime rate such as break-ins? It would go way down because the price will drop (law of supply and demand).

Now tell me which plan - the DEA Plan or Renegades Chemical Cocktail is the more humane, compassionate, effective way to handle the meth crises?

A big f*ck you goes out to the DEA for their treatment of addicts as criminals and not individuals with mental disorders and chemical imbalances.

Oh, and a big f*ck you goes out to the politicans making these laws.

Addiction is a medical problem and a disease. You don't throw a patient with depression in jail, why someone with a mental disorder? She probably uses drugs to help her depression. It makes her feel better, works better than prozac. Until these cronies come to realize this, we live in an uncivilized world who lock up their own sons and daughters for years in jail for drug use.

Like the Jews in Germany during WWII, drug users here in the USA are also persecuted with the same enthusiasim. Instead of going to a gas chamber, they are thrown in Jail (concentration camps). Watch COPs and see how much law enforcement enjoys busting people with a $5 rock. They treat it like it is a sport, us vs them. When will the USA become civilized in the way they treat a segment of our population?

Now with the democrats in control of congress, it is going to get worse. They believe in big government and a lot of laws regulating how we live. It was them who wrote the first drug laws, ban marijuana, and started the mandatory sentencing laws.

I hear ya on the DEA opinion, but not so much on the disease part, think about it as if you were a cancer patient, how would you feel if you heard a tweeker complaining about how ""itsadiseaseman ya ya ya" cancer is a disease addiction is not. it may be somewhat predetermined but not genetically, we chose to use, to blame anything else is sitting on a "pity pot", we should be focusing on the big choice all addicts have, the question goes "Am I going to live with it? die from it? or quit?"
