Why Is It Up to Addicts to Choose to Go to Detox?
Question by Kimbo: Why is it up to addicts to choose to go to detox?
It dosent add up to me. Drug addicts are ADDICTED to illegal drugs. Why send thses people to jail, where they will get no treatment and will likely have acces to drugs while incarcerated? I think when a person is arrested for drug usage, they should be sent to a state funded rehab clinic until they are clean. Oh and no walking out or being thrown out, this is the punishment as well as the cure. That way, hopwfully, some of these people canhave a second chance. Well thats my view anyway.

I’ve been on methadone treatment for over a year because of a heroin addiction. I want to get off it because i want to go into a program for alcoholics but they dont accept people on drugs. I don’t want to do it at home because I know its extremely painful and dangerous. I live in NYC. Is there a detox center that will detox me from this drug?

How Prevalent Is Meth Use (Like as a Percent of the Population)?
Question by Dollar: How prevalent is meth use (like as a percent of the population)?
I mean like what percentage of the population in say a given state uses it. I mean, i live in NY, and you really could think that every single person west of the mississippi smokes meth. If you see it portrayed in the media or if people talk about it thats how it seems. And enough of the stuff comes in from mexico that alot of people must be getting high on this stuff.
And why do so many people even try it?
