Question by Barack McClinton: How come no one finds it funny when you joke about hard drugs like meth or heroin?
Pot jokes are kind of corny and everyone agrees. And most people can appreaciate a cocaine joke as long as it has context.

But if you make a random joke about meth, people are angry about it. Why should be we feel sorry or feel sensititve about drug “addiction”?

And don’t tell me I don’t know. The police threw me in a “weed rehab” when I was a teenager.

Finding the right drug addiction treatment center or drug rehabilitation facility can be quite a challenge. Many drug addicts are scared to go to drug and alcohol treatment. They’ve heard the horror stories of withdrawals and are afraid of what they will be forced to deal with once they have gotten into a drug rehab and begun to get sober. Make no mistake, getting sober is not an easy thing to do. So how do you choose the right drug addiction treatment center?

For some, choosing a drug addiction treatment center depends on finding a place that will work well for their current situations. People with strong family and work obligations are more likely to opt for out-patient drug addiction rehabilitation program. Someone who is trying to overcome a drug addiction to a drug with dangerous withdrawal symptoms like heroin will be better served with an in-patient drug addiction treatment center. For others, finding an acceptable drug addiction treatment center will depend on the scientific approach taken by the drug rehab themselves.

Methadone rehabilitation must be comprehensive and lasting in order to lower acute withdrawal symptoms over the long term. There are many components to Methadone rehabilitation, since getting methadone addicts off methadone may be harder than getting heroin addicts off heroin. The reason being, methadone produces a physical dependence and a painful and prolonged withdrawal.

Although fraught with the perils of possible overdose and death by combining methadone with alcohol or anti-anxiety medications, and by the sure fire fact that you will acquire a methadone dependency, methadone use for the treatment of heroin addiction has been largely successful.
One of the reasons methadone use has been called into question is because of its recent use as a medication for chronic pain. This occurred due to the abuse of oxycontin for chronic pain and the illegal market for it that ensued. Unfortunately, the pain relief from methadone lasts for 12 hours but the drug stays in your body for much longer.
