    It’s true that alcohol and drug abuse can destroy career, life and family. I have seen so many people who were very good persons in the society berofe and after alcohol or drug abuse, not only they have destroyed their life and family but Whole the society is suffering.

    Addiction Recovery Arkansas

    Once an error is clearly and fully understood, it need not be repeated. Addiction is to the false Self. Drugs and Alcohol are just self-medication trying to alleviate the pain caused by that addiction .

    The local presidential campaign staff, volunteers, and supporting elected officials are now gathering under the glow of TVs at bars, restaurants, and homes throughout Madison. The outcome of this primary, particularly on the Democratic side, could have significant repercussions when it comes to the ultimate nominees chosen to compete for the presidency this fall.

How else can we get our leaders to face the fact that substance abuse addictions are out of control these days, especially now with prescription drug dependencies. Unfortunately, many rehab centers focus on just getting a person off their substance. Let’s get the word out that there are facilities out there that taper an individual off their addiction first while teaching them new and healthy habits such as weight training, martial arts, healthy eating habits, and learning new skills.
