Is your MOM addicted to drugs?
same time doesn’t like to take showers but once every 4-7 days? Our daughter has a pain pill problem and its wrecked some of her teeth. But we’ve also noticed she will go for days without a shower. I was wondering if the effect of pain pills on the skin makes it uncomfortable to take a shower…or it could be a self esteem thing. No guesses please (I can do that myself)…I need to hear from experience. Thanks.
I’ve been addicted to pills since I was 17 or 18 years old. Vicodin,Percocet,Oxycontin and any other kind of pain pill. I’m 22 now and I have a beautiful one year old daughter. I’ve tried everything but when I’m not on pills I’m not happy. It’s selfish of me and I don’t know why I just can’t be happy like everyone else. My mother and father are both alcoholics and drug addiction and alcoholism runs on both sides of my family. Someone please help.
My mother in law is 72 years old now, but 54 years ago she was a newly wed starting a family. Her first child was a big baby. When she became pregnant with her second child, she begged her doctor to help her have a smaller baby. Her OB/GYN prescribed diet pills and she took those little pills during her entire pregnancy. Her baby girl was huge in spite of those diet pills.
After my sister in law was born, my mother in law said the baby cried constantly. Once they got home from the hospital, my mother law says that my sister in law slept all the time. From birth until age 12, my sister law’s favorite place was her bed. She slept constantly. Even now, at age 51, her favorite pass time is sleeping.
During adolescence and young adult hood, my sister in law became addicted to methamphetamine. She said taking the drug made her feel normal. She is now a recovering drug addict and alcoholic, but she still misses the drugs. Her daughter, my niece, is also a methamphetamine addict. My niece spent two years in prison for criminal activity associated with drug abuse. The cycle continues.
Is there anyway possible the diet pills my mother in law took during her pregnancy 52 years ago could have caused my sister in law’s drug addiction and subsequently my niece’s drug addiction?
I can’t help but wonder. Although I have suggested this possibility to my mother in law, she thinks it is far fetched. She also doesn’t think taking those diet pills while pregnant was wrong — she has justified it as being prescribed by her doctor and she was just following his instruction.
Could there be a connection?

I tried a diet drug recently – and it nearly killed me! (My doctor says I was lucky I got to the hospital in time.) But this wasn’t the first diet drug for me. I had tried all the others before that. (You can read more about diet pills, natural alternatives, and my long but finally successful transformation from Fat guy to Healthy guy, on my Blogger blog: Celopin Diet Pill. See the Author Box beneath this article.)
Note: I don’t know if they can sue a guy, just for putting his story online to help warn others. But just in case, I’ll play it safe: No brand names will be mentioned in this article. (And no, the pill that nearly killed me wasn’t celopin.)
Anyways, every time they put me on a diet pill, I’d suffer through a list various bad side effects. And after I’d had enough (with barely any weight loss results by the way), most of them would be taken off market due to dangerous side effects (Note: discovered AFTER we all suffered!), or they were proven UN-effective in losing fat.
Besides, have you tried ordering diet pills recently. As I began my online investigation, I was shocked to see the hundreds of complains about diet pill ripoffs!
Here’s a typical quote:
“On 12/03/06 I placed an online order with www.(name removed)… they said they had some wrong info in there system and were going to call my Doc for a fax number… Two day’s later it said there was no information the day after that my account was charged and I checked online again and it said My Doctor had rejected it. I spoke with him and he said he has never heard or received anything from them! I sent them 3 more emails asking what was going on and asked for my money back no reply. Yesterday I checked again and it said they are sending me a non prescription alternative. I sent an email back telling them I do not want it I want my money back because they lied. Still no reply.”
Here’s one with a reply from a consumer advocate website (spelling errors left unchanged in the interest of accuracy):
“Ordered product from (name removed) pharmacy. They substitued a different product than I ordered. I requested to send product back. They stated that in their terms that they can substitue another product. I may return product but they charged $45.00 for processing and cancellation fees plus I have to pay return shipping.”
Response:
“I had the same experience with (name removed) Pharmacy – ordering one thing and receiving something else. So I called them and requested a refund. Of course, their pat line was that the fine print told me that I could not get a refund once the product had been shipped.”
And this beauty:
“My daughter, friend and I all ordered the “free” thin- tabs for the small shipping and handling fee. Before we knew it we had all been charged $149.99, this happened immediately, and we received a large bottle of the pills which NONE of us accepted and all 3 of us sent back ” refused”. We were all told we had agreed to a monthly club type thing and would be charged EVERY month.
…My daughter cancelled her credit card as the only way to get them to stop charging her monthly charges. My friends account was sent to Collections (in Bombay INDIA) and I have yet to see a credit on my Visa.”
After I finally got fed up with diet drugs, I started working out at a gym. The muscle-bound oafs were all recommending various “supplements” (just another word for “drugs”), to all the beginners like me. So like a fellow oaf, I tried some of them. More wasted money and time.
The answer to REAL weight loss is NOT drugs. The odd drug may work for awhile, but it’s just a temporary solution and the bad side effects just aren’t worth it. And the answer is definitely NOT “supplements” either.
I’m just trying to do the right thing, and help people to not make the same mistakes *I* made. Don’t get SUCKERED the way I did for so long. Consider yourself warned!
Now that I’ve “done my duty” and warned you about the worst (drugs & supplements), I need to warn you about the other failures people often encounter on the road to successful weight loss. To find out what IS the right answer to successful weight loss, read the next article in this series of articles posted at my blog (see the Author Box below).

The hardest part about quitting smoking isn’t actually quitting smoking, it’s the bizarre stigma that everybody (even non-smokers) have created about how hard smoking is supposed to be. The ironic thing is that it doesn’t have to be that hard!
When most people quit smoking, they don’t actually become non-smokers. They become smokers who, depending on their success, are just not smoking at the time. Whichever method they’re using, be it nicotine replacement, pills, or cold turkey, in their minds they are still smokers.
The problem is that people try to treat smoking as a physical addiction, when it’s a mental addiction. You’ll notice that you can easily go for hours without a cigarette, as long as you know that you’ll get to smoke eventually. If it was a purely physical addiction, this wouldn’t be possible.
You’re only as addicted to smoking as your mind wants you to be. You have connections in your mind between certain events (getting off of work, being on the phone, working on a term paper) and smoking that trigger your urge to smoke. In order to truly become a non-smoker, you have to unravel these connections and realize that cigarettes won’t actually help you do anything.
It all breaks down to identifying when you want to smoke and why. If you figure out what causes you to want to smoke (and anticipating the way it affects you) you can easily break free from your supposed need to smoke, since you’ll reduce it to something as simple as, for example, biting your nails or chewing on toothpicks.
Want to quit smoking, but don’t want to waste money and time with nicotine replacements? Take a look at my EasyQuit System Review and learn how you to quit smoking the right way!
