How Effective Are Substance Abuse Treatments?

Question by scarlet j: How effective are substance abuse treatments?
I have recently convinced my husband to undergo a substance abuse treatment, and now I am searching for an addiction center that will fit him. But just a few days ago, a friend of mine called me, and said that his son went back to using drugs after two months of abstinence. Now, that gives me doubts if treatment programs can effectively help my husband. Is relapse a normal occurrence? Will I keep my trust on addiction treatment programs?

Can Songs Be Applied to More Than They Are Intended To?

Question by raigafan18: Can songs be applied to more than they are intended to?
For example…

For a college project focusing around drug addicts, I plan on using the song “Fix You” in the background of the slideshow as a salutation to rehab treatment and the path to recovery. Is this appropriate?

Best answer:

Answer by ?lï?ï?
Yes, it is most definitely appropriate.

Usually, songs are more than just words with a tune, they are like a story that the artist has written. Each song tells a story, hence songs have more depth that many people can comprehend.
