Question by girlwithoutaplanet: University student with opiate problem, how do I quit?
HI! I am a straight A student with a moderate opiate problem (have been using for 4 months, on and off), when I try to stop I can deal with the mild physical symptoms, like aches and diarrhea (as my addiction is not severe), but the fatigue is so bad that I am pretty much catatonic during the day, so that makes me want to use just so that I can do my homework, study, etc. What can I do, I haven’t been able to stop for more than three days? Oh and coffee helps, but it gives me severe anxiety if I drink too much (since that too is a symptom of withdrawal and is exacerbated when I drink coffee). Any suggestions?

I was thinking of quiting during the reading week in February, will 7 days be enough? Again, any remedies for energy depletion?

Question by Killer: my brother is addicted to weed?
I’ve been smoking weed every day for 2 years now, and I’m not addicted. but brother started last week and now he’s addicted! what should I do?

Best answer:

Answer by The Big E
If you have smoked weed every day for the last two years, you too are addicted whether you admit it to yourself and others or not. Insofar as your review of your brother’s weed smoking habit, that is especially not for you to be judging in light of the example you set for him. The blind are enviably not in a credible position to adequately lead the blind as both suffer the same impaired judgment before the process even begins. The greatest lies that hurt us most are the ones we tell ourselves.

Question by ATX: Heroin addict stole from me. Can I threaten to sue?
Here’s the deal, I invited a “friend” that I hadn’t seen in a while into my house, unbeknownst to me that he had relapsed on heroin. So he steals my $ 1000 cash rainy day fund when I go to the bathroom (which I find out about the next day) out of my closet and I come to find out that he’s been stealing from other people as well in a similar manner, to not just get his fix, but to purchase a diamond ring for his girlfriend and to fix his car he crashed while high on H (idiot posted a picture of the ring on social media) It is obvious to many people that he couldn’t afford the ring (no job, known heroin addict) and starts getting called out, soon after, he runs off to cali for “treatment” where he relapses again. Can I threaten to sue? Do I have a case even? Please help, I don’t know what to do!
Apparently, he has a job now.
