Why was I able to quit my addiction “out of nowhere”? I heard it never happens?

29 Aug

I was a daily abuser of marijuana for 3-4 years.

During my work, I listen to the show Loveline a few hours every day. It’s hosted by Dr. Drew Pinsky, addiction medicine specialist. The show is mostly about addictions (sexual, substance, etc)

Anyway, as I was listening to Loveline, I began to realize how poor my choices were. I began to believe I was lying to myself. So, I simply quit. I didn’t have any profound consequences mounting up to my choice (yes, I was getting more and more depressed, but nothing major). I just decided to quit and never go back.

How I was able to make this choice? Most addicts do not have this “moment of sanity”. I have profound addiction in my immediate family.
Well, I had a ton of consequences. I just didn’t realize them. So this question is pointless :)

Do you think tobacco companies should open rehab centers for those addicted who want to quit smoking?

26 May

Millions of people are hopelessly addicted and want to quit but can’t. The addiction is so bad that even all their friends dying from lung cancer doesn’t stop them. Many people near death still have to light up to the very end.

I smoke about 2 packs a day. If there was a rehab center for stopping smoking, I would definitely check in. What are your thoughts on this?

How do you quit caffeine without murdering someone??

So, seriously, I need to quit caffeine after 15 years of Diet Coke addiction. I know it is messing with my memory and my head and I HATE IT!! So, I am taking caffeine out of my diet altogether. Only thing is, I am having horrible headaches, dizzy feelings and sheer anger. This is very hard and it is only the first day. I just want aspartame and caffeine out of my life!

I quit using drugs 10 years ago. Do I need relapse over and over again in order to be considered an addict?

04 Mar

I quit using drugs the first time I really tried which was over 10 years ago. I have several addict friends who question whether or not I am an addict. I don’t need that label and frankly can live without it, however, I work in substance abuse treatment and feel strongly that addicts can overcome active addiction without having to go through relapse after relapse. Your thoughts?
