Addictions Therapist

I spend 16 hours a day on the internet and I really need to stop. I feel like a missed out on so many things but getting a hobby or some such isn’t so easy. Surprisingly, the internet isn’t so helpful because a lot of people seem to think that internet addiction is a joke. So, Is there some sort of 12-step program for internet addiction?

I know methadone is commonly used, but I’ve heard that it can be addictive as well. I suppose it could be true, as heroin was first believed to be a medication for morphine addiction. So, are there other treatments for heroin addiction?

My ex boyfriend is now incarcerated for 5 years. He commited a felony while under the influence of drugs. He has a severe addiction and is in his forties. Although he has tried many times to stay away from drugs, he has not succeded. He has destroyed his life, and finally hit rock bottom. While on drugs he is a disgusting person and has become abusive. When he is straight he is a wonderful guy! Not knowing what the future will hold for him, what are the chances of a lengthy incarceration straightening him out and him staying away from drugs once he is out? Also, I have been advised that abusers never change and just because he stays away from the drugs doesn’t mean that he will never become physically abusive.

I have a friend who really idolized someone whom she found out was a heroin addict. That’s when she started to wonder what it’s like to be doing heroin. She tried it and got herself addicted. I really want to help her get through this. I already talked to her parents and they told me that they need help in finding addiction treatment centers.

I’ve had this problem for an extremely long time. I’ve tried to set limits for myself and do other things to make myself stronger and more resistant. but i’m still stuck in this hole with not much progress. please does anyone have any ideas on how to stop this addiction?
