Question by dino: Tell me about addiction to crack cocaine, I need to know what exactly it is doing?
I am a recovering (never say recovered – 6 yrs though) addict of another CDS and so is my husband, but he is struggling with this crack addiction. I want to know what exactly crack is doing when inhaled. I am very unfamiliar with this and it is the most powerful thing I have ever seen. He has made a commitment to stopping but I want to know more for me. I’ve looked at websites, but you always get the best info from people who have been through it or know first hand.

Question by blake: How bad are zanax, loritabs, zanaflex, and tramadols for you?
I’m just an average guy who has an addiction to things easily. I traded out weed for pills, cause I hate how long weed stays in the system. Right now I take loritab (any size) zanax bars (school bus) and tramadols (50 mg I think). Recently I started trying zanaflex and was just wondering about the “high” it gives you. I enjoy the slow down feeling and was wondering if they would do the same. Also, I wanted to try tram 300 (tramadol 300 mg) but wasn’t sure about how much to take cause I usually take about 3 trams in a sitting. I know. I need help but addiction runs in my “above average” family and I guess I got the gene. Not sure how to let go of my addictions cause I always need something to get me a high feeling whether it’s was weed, alcohol, or now pills.    Read more...
