What is wrong with addiction?

Q: I obviously need to give you a little more context about a question like that. What im asking is what is so wrong with being addicted to something? We are addicted to water, oxygen, nitrogen, sodium, and so many other things in life that if we stopped maintaining our addictions to we would die very quickly.Why then is it that so many people get so upset and bent out of shape when someone has an addiction to a drug? If you take away all of the negative problems like stealing for the drugs, gang violence, drug lords, etc by legalizing the drug, what is left that is so terrible about say Morphine? People with cancer take morphine regularly , day after day after day in large doses, sometimes for decades, or longer. They are not feeling any negative effects from that drug besides they are out of pain, possibly even having some euphoria, and get to live their lives as normally as possible until their cancer is cured or they die. People prescribed oxycontin for similar chronic pain are doing the same. There is little to no physical harm in taking these opiates but if you are labeled an addict people look at you differently, they think you’re going to beat them up for $5 and corrupt their kids or something.And then on the other hand you have people addicted to cigarettes that drink heavily but look down on someone that does heroin, even though alcohol and cigarette addiction kills many many times that which heroin kills. There are also the people that drink 6 cans of caffeinated soda, coffee, or energy drinks every day and think they are not drug addicts by definition and look down on other types of drug addicts like they’re lepers or something. See what happens what those people stop getting their caffeine fix and they get massive headaches and body aches from the withdrawal.I’d like to hear some opinions about this question, but again, let me make it clear that i am asking solely about the addiction, NOT ABOUT ANYTHING RELATED to addiction like violence resulting from stealing to get the substance, because that can be avoided by making the drug cheap and easily obtained, that type of violence is a result of its illegality, not the drug itself.I am also NOT talking about an addiction to anything that causes GREAT PHYSICAL HARM to a person like meth, alcohol, etc. I personally am ok with someone drinking themselves to death as long as they don’t hurt anyone else, but i can easily understand why others would not be ok with this type of addiction. Non-harmful addictions like morphine, oxycodone, hydrocodone, fentanyl, and psychological addictions to drugs like marijuana, MDMA(ecstasy), and others.I am also not concerned with things like hitting someone because you were on meth or drinking alcohol. Just as the courts do not believe being drunk is an excuse for doing those acts, neither do i. The alcohol does not make you hit your wife, you chose to do that. The meth may have made you paranoid and delusional, but you chose to attack that person. Opiates of course have no history of abusing people under their influence so again id like to focus on opiates and similar drugs and avoid alcohol and meth and that type of drug.Summary – What is wrong with being addicted to substances that do not make you violent if they are free and easily obtained and do not cause physical harm to the user? Drugs or substances like opiates that can be taken long term with little to no negative effects on the health of the user and do not cause them to attack others.I understand laws like DUI laws, etc that prohibit people from driving or operating machines while under the influence. I am solely talking about what is wrong with addiction to the above type of drug, when used responsibly and safely in your own home, just as people drink alcohol “responsibly” or smoke cigarettes today.Couple more points to the people answering:Overdosing – Not a serious problem with proper education, quality production of the substance, and responsible use. People that overdose fall into certain categories:1) Accidental overdose – avoidable with education, responsible use, doctor supervision of dosage increase.2)Suicide – has nothing to do with the drug or should we start illegalizing rope as well because people hang themselves?3) Product was much stronger than they were use to – again, avoidable with quality control of production through legalization.We allow people to obtain alcohol legally even though you can potentially overdose. The government allows people to be responsible with certain very dangerous chemicals on their own, but not with others.Also – if you don’t like the use of water as an addicted substance example, use firefighters rescuing children, or the high doctors get from saving patients, or cops fighting “bad guys” or love of hobbies. all of these things create a dopamine or serotonin reaction in your brain that is easy to become addicted to yet is perfectly ok in society. Morphine gives the dopamine response without doing the action. Ecstasy gives the serotonin response without the action.As the first answerer said, everyone is addicted to something, and that was what i was trying to bring across.Definition – “addiction is a state in which the body relies on a substance for normal functioning and develops physical dependence. When this substance is suddenly removed, it will cause withdrawal, a characteristic set of signs and symptoms”this fits the bill for water, sodium, and the other substances we need to live and if taken away will cause withdrawal and death just as with a heavy addiction to certain drugs.I would rather email you daisy, but here it is:drugs causing unhealthy coping mechanisms? in fact the drugs i am talking about (opiates) use the bodies natural dopamine receptors to create a sensation that is the same released when doing a good deed. firefighters use this to get past the horror of the job. people are fine with this type of usage but are completely against it when its gotten through an outside substance. firefighters and other similar rescue workers can easily become addicted to this rush but are looked up to.you also claim i am trivializing oxycontin addiction when i did no such thing. instead you are taking your own personal feelings and throwing them at me for a perceived wrong. my own mother uses oxycontin to control her chronic pain, but i also feel if someone choose to use oxycodone to control mental anguish why are they not allowed? we let people destroy their lives with alcohol and even advertise for it, but illegal drugs are wrong?

A: were all addicted to something

How does your MIND feel….?

Q: everybody talks about all these body symptoms when your pregnant, my question is….does anyones mind thoughts feel different? such as just “knowing”…okay this is why i ask…im getting all the body symptoms of being pregnant, late period, back pains, extreme nausea throughout the day, have been cramping pretty much all month on and off yet still no period to be seen, sever mood swings-one minute im cussing everyone out in my head, next im bawlin over simple stuff, like i thought about putting a energy drink in the fridge when i got home, and just started full out BAWLING. (i really hardly EVER cry) my breast are hurting more and more everyday, going potty every hour on the hour, making work kinda mad at me too haha.so here’s how my morning went when i got off work (i work third) i got home feeling extremely hungry so i cooked a big ol’ breakfast, during cooking and when i was done i got extremely nauseas and couldn’t even eat, so gave it to the dogs. then i went and took a nice hott bath, and just cried over every little nothing, SO not me, and i really dont have anything stressful going on in my life, i really dont let things get to me, even trying to conceive and not, it will happen if its supposed to so why stress it right?!even though all these symptoms, im scared to take a test (i am later today anyways) because i just dont THINK pregnant, i just really dont think in my head im pregnant, for some reason i just think ill never be able to get pregnant because its what i want most, yet have never gotten. so im not letting myself get excited just because of how i feel, im tired of being let down…one last test and im going to stop even thinking about it, just plain enjoy sex without a point except for pleasure again. my ma said when she was pregnant with my brother and i both, she just knew right away she was pregnant. i guess im kinda looking for that sign in my head, that i know that test will turn out the way i want it for once….even if its just slightly!!!so, not too much of a question more like ranting and raving and a poll-anybody here thats ever been pregnant, did your mind know before the test told you? regardless of all the signs, i just dont “think” pregnant, and thats telling me the test results before i even take it….but wish me luck and possibly my mind is wrong!! i sincerely hope it is. xo and best of luck to all else who are trying and failing for the moment, dont give up! yet dont stress it either. *muah*

A: I know how you feel, I’ve been having all the symptoms and even my mind had me convinced that I was pregnant. It’s called a “Phantom Pregnancy”. I had an ovarian drilling done last month on July 13th was supposed to work and I would have a period, but guess what? You guessed it, no period! My body was having symptoms of pregnancy ALL the classic signs, but since I have been dissapointed so much I can’t let myself beleive that i’m finally pregnant.I have to go to the dr in an hour to find out why the surgury did not work. Good luck to youFalse pregnancy, most commonly termed pseudocyesis in humans and pseudopregnancy in other mammals, is the appearance of clinical and/or subclinical signs and symptoms associated with pregnancy when the person or animal is not pregnant. Clinically, false pregnancy is most common in veterinary medicine (particularly in dogs and mice). False pregnancy in humans is less common, and may sometimes be purely psychologicalGod willing we will all get a “REAL” pregnancy soon.

Q: To lose weight in 5 months, follow this simple diet routine, proved to be more effective:General Motors Weight Loss Diet, a.k.a. The GM Diet* – An e-mail received from Shri M Siddique (who recd from Ravindra Jaju)Have you heard of the Physics Diet? As common sense goes, prevention is always better than cure!The following diet and health program was apparently developed for the employees and the dependants of General Motors Inc. The program was developed in conjunction with the grant from the US Department of Agriculture and the Food and Drug Administration. It was first tried at the Johns Hopkins Research Centre and was approved for distribution by the Board of Directors of General Motors Corporation at a general meeting on August 15, 1995 . General Motors Corporation wholly endorsed this program and is making it available to all employees and families. This program will be available at all General Motors Food service facilities. It is the management’s intention to facilitate a welfare and fitness program for everyone. This program is designed for a target weight loss of 5-6 Kgs. per week. It will also improve your attitude and emotions because of its systematic cleansing effects. The effectiveness of this seven day plan is that the foods eaten burn more calories than they give to the body in caloric value. This plan can be used as often as you like to without any fear of complications. It is designed to flush your system of impurities and give you a feeling of well being. After seven days you will begin to feel lighter by atleast 10 pounds. You will have an abundance of energy and an improved disposition. During the first seven days you must drink 10 glasses of water each day. DAY ONE All fruits except bananas. Your first day will consists of all fruits you want. It is suggested you consume lots of watermelon and cantaloupe. DAY TWO All vegetables. You are encouraged to eat until you are stuffed with all the new and cooked vegetables of your choice. There is no limit on the account or type. Avoid oil and coconut while cooking vegetables. Have large boiled potato for breakfast. DAY THREEAny mixture of fruits and vegetables of your choice. Any amount, any quantity. No bananas yet and no potatoes today. DAY FOUR Bananas and milk. Today you will eat as many as eight bananas and drink three glasses of milk. You can also have one bowl of vegetables soup. DAY FIVE Today is a feast day. You will eat 1 (one) cup of rice. You also have to eat 6 (six) whole tomatoes and drink 12 (twelve) glasses of water today to cleanse your system of the excess uric acid you will be producing. DAY SIX Today is another all vegetables day. You must eat 1 cup of rice today and eat all the vegetables you want cooked and uncooked to your heart’s content. DAY SEVEN Today your food intake will consist of 1 cup rice, fruit juice and all the vegetables you care to consume. Tomorrow morning you will be five to eight kilograms lighter than 1 week ago. If you desire further weight loss, repeat the program again. Repeat the program as often as you like, however, it is suggested that you rest for three days before every repetition. You have your system under control now and it will thank you for all the purging and cleansing you just gave it. Even more than a diet program it is good to follow this diet once in a while to clean your digestive system and remove toxic substances that have a accumulated in the system.ADDITIONAL COMMENTSThe most important element of the program is the 10 (ten) tall glasses of water a day. You can also flavour the water will some lemon to make the drink easier. While on the program, take only black coffee and never more than one teaspoon of oil. Preferably do not use oil because the high calorific content. No fruit juices before day seven. Here is what happens to you body while you are on this program and how and why it works. Day 1: You are preparing your system for the upcoming program. Your only source of nutrition is fresh fruits. Fruits are nature’s perfect food. They provide everything you can possibly want to sustain life except total balance and variety. Day 2: Starts with a fix complex carbohydrates in the form of a boiled potato. This is taken in the form of a boiled potato and taken in the morning to provide energy and balance. The rest of the day too consists of vegetables which are virtually calories free and provide essential nutrients and fibre. Day 3: Eliminates the potato because you get your carbohydrates from fruits. Your system is now prepared to start burning excess pounds. You will have cravings, which should start to diminish by day four. Day 4: Bananas and milk. You are in for a surprise. You probably will not be able to eat all the bananas allowed. But they are there for the potassium you have lost and the sodium you may have missed during the last three days. You will notice a definite loss of desire for sweets and you will be surp

A: Please do not follow this diet. It is a fad diet. Fad diets do not work.I’ll tell you what I do not like about this diet. This diet does not provide sufficient fat or protein. Both are essential nutrients. This is basically a semi-starvation diet. You will lose lots of lean muscle mass as your body wastes away.It is very difficult for people to sustain wt. loss of more than 1 lb a week. A pound of fat= 3500 calories. If you burn 500 calories more per day than you eat than you will lose 1 lb a week. If you lose more than this you are losing water weight by dehydrating yourself, losing weight at an unsafe rate through semi-starvation, and you will not be able to maintain this weight loss.Don’t believe me? Americans spend billions on weight loss programs and products each year. If these fad diets worked than 2/3 of adult Americans would not be overweight or obese.Losing weight takes patience, persistence, and a desire to learn how to eat healthfully. Most people find that exercise is needed to help them create a large enough calorie deficit to lose weight. There is no quick fix.If you want to lose weight I would highly recommend talking to a registered dietitian (RD). An RD is a nutrition expert that can help set up a customized diet plan for you to help you lose weight. Contact your local hospital for more information. Good luck.
