OHFFS09,
You clearly are displaying your ignorance, lack of information, and prejudice. Let me guess, you are a teenager or in your 20′s, and think you know it all. Let me tell you, you do not. Harm reduction is the only thing that works. Would you prefer to have an addict break into your house and steal money, or kill you for money, or would you rather have them in treatment so they can refrain from doing drugs and get clean. Drug addiction affects all of us! Drug treatment works, moron!

Who asked you to care? Our tax dollars are always going to go to something we don’t agree with. I don’t agree with tax dollars going to blow people up but the military goes around blowing stuff up. I despise tax dollars going to churches but it happens anyway (faith based initiatives).
Lastly, many of these people return to productive lives after treatment.

Watching people fail in 12 step programs is heart breaking. Many people want genuinely to quit and turn to a “program” that doesn’t work and they they blame themselves because the program tells them that it is 100% effective to those who apply it right. I can make a 1 step program that works for people who follow it 100% of the time..
Step 1 – Don’t ever use.
A perfect program, right?

Rational recovery is much better then NA and it offers people real hope and the tools to do it. NA offers God.

Drug addiction/alcoholism has nothing to do with “spirituality” and I think the powerless, 1 day at a time approach is self defeating. The only powerlessness someone should have is to stop trying to “control” it and just give up using all together. The 12 steps are loaded with religion and self defeating behavior.
Addiction is a medical problem and should be treated as such. You wouldn’t 12 step for diabetes!
12 step programs have not shown to be effective at all in alcoholism/addiction.

a drug addict is mentally ill and spiritually poor, you’re probably addicted to something, food, sex , etc. too much of anything is sinful . don’t knock or judge what you don’t understand. I’m a recovering addict, me staying clean depends on what i can do for still sick and suffering addicts out there.
It could be a member of your family that you really love, me and my n.a. family would give them all the love and support they need to get their lives back together

No, I used to work in th IT dept of a Methadone clinic.
This stuff is usually paid for with local tax dollars and sales taxes and things like that. Welfare insurance does cover it, but welfare insurance is handled by a private company who issues insurance to recipients and the premium is paid by the federal gov. So technically, your tax dolls don’t usually pay for this.

Oh and you do ?never said that I am open minded just don’t want my tax dollars being used to treat idiot’s.There are more important things and people that need the help.I am going to guess that you yourself are a drug addict or used to be one.

Do you know how many of these people started off on prescribed prescription pain killers?
I personally know a young man who got hit by a drunk driver and went in a coma and got addicted to morphine in the hospital / rehabilitation. He lost his job as an paramedic and is now on methadone. Is it his fault? What about the older lady that gets addicted to her pain meds and is going to 3 or 4 doctors? Never broke a law in their life.
You think you know everything, but you don’t. Open your mind.

There is a big difference between a mentally ill individual and a scum bag fucktard drug addict or criminal.The mentally ill person deserves help as for the other two FUCK THEM.They made themselves that way no one held a gun to their head’s and told them to break the law.

Ok, we’ll make the suggestion to our congresspeople.
I love when people like you talk about social problems. We’ll just kill everyone we don’t like.
Let’s see how you would feel if you or someone you love gets into some sort of trouble like an addiction, a mental illness or maybe some criminal activity. People’s attitude ALWAYS changes when it’s about them. Even good ole’ Rush had a change of heart when he got addicted to oxys.

People don’t live in a vacuum. We are all affected by things that happen in our community. Crime goes up, diseases are spread, taxes increase, quality of life issues…
It is far cheaper and more effective to treat the problem than to ignore it or lock-em-up.
1 addict with a $60 a day habit costs society 10x that amount easily.

I contacted the local news station and explained why most of the report was wrong, but it had already aired so what could I do?
Go to harmed website and tell them how wrong they are. I created an account and tried to tell them very nicely but they don’t listen. If you aren’t an anti methadone nutcase they don’t want to hear you. They had a video at the time and EVERY single case was about methadone abuse and nobody in it was taking it as prescribed by a doctor.
sorry about the mistake.

If you are being sarcastic, I suggest you read the sidebar. I worked at this clinic for some time and I am very familiar with the inside layout of the building. The really funny thing is they repeatedly show red methadone in square bottles and this clinic uses yellow methadone in round bottles.
You can’t just assume that people handing each other things are illegal, especially when done right in the open in front of security. Until it can be proven to be pills, they are tokens.

People who dies almost always die because they were not taking it as prescribed or under a doctors care at all. Polydrug deaths are the most common (of a very rare thing) with the most common 2nd drug being alcohol and benzo’s coming in a strong 2nd.
Point is, don’t take methadone unless prescribed by a doctor who is familiar with any other meds you might be on.

Suboxone vs Methadone on Mon, 24th Aug 2009 11:31 am


There is nothing going on outside of this clinic. What you are witnessing is the sale of septa tokens (bus tokens). The layout of this clinic makes the soda thing IMPOSSIBLE to be methadone. Right inside the door are soda machines. The medicating booths are on another floor and you must leave the building from an door UPSTAIRS and walk down steps on the other side of the building. This was bad reporting and nothing more.

Mine too — along with hundreds of thousands of others in the US alone. Just do a little research — don’t be drawn in by all the hysteria. I’ve been on it safely for over 9 years with NO untoward effects. I feel badly for anyone who loses a loved one to ANY drug overdose — but it is the ABUSE and MISUSE of methadone which is deadly.

I’m not sure what you are saying, but if a dr writes you a prescription for a controlled substance and you sell it, you should go to jail. Methadone needs to be taken under the supervision of a Dr. It can be dangerous and only a Dr can determine the best dose and dose scheduling for you. Any drug taken in ignorance can be deadly, that is why some drugs are prescription only. Even OTC drugs can be VERY dangerous, like Tylenol, when not taken correctly.

ok so if your dr gives you methadone and you sell it would they set out set out of it and bash it???

Methadone is more addictive than heroin. Heroin addicts should go cold turkey.

An “opiate withdraw is the most horrible feeling in the world?” Then don’t take heroin, idiot! That feeling should be the b**ches incentive not to take drugs.

I like how this video talks about Methadone deaths increasing 400% in the past few years, but what they don’t mention is that Methadone prescriptions have gone up thousands of percentage points due to the demonization of oxycontin and percocet. Insurance companies love methadone because it’s cheaper and the doctors like it because it keeps the dea out of their offices. Methadone prescribed for addicts is probably the most regulated medication is existence.

Believe me, a lot of white people die, including Jews, that nobody cares about. This woman is well connected, well funded and comes from money. She absolutely will not accept that her son CHOOSE TO ABUSE Methadone and the Methadone dose he bought didn’t even come from this clinic and it’s very far from her area. She runs a website called harmd and they ban anyone who doesn’t demonize Methadone or any other pain killer.
