Petitions to Keep Starbucks Stores Open: Craziness or Caffeine Addiction?
Question by Good?Gyrl: Petitions to keep Starbucks stores open: Craziness or Caffeine Addiction?
I read in the Wall Street Journal that there are groups around the country circulating petitions and calling Starbucks’ headquarters trying to stop them from closing stores. Are they insane? Coffee is NOT that important. I think it’s ridiculous! They have more than enough stores – for example, Chicago and NY: you can’t walk 5 city blocks without finding at least THREE or more Starbucks stores. I think it’s insanity. Do you think it’s time they closed, or are you sad?

Question by maheman: I need to have my tooth extracted, but i get panic attack….?
Hi
Actually, It’s my friend who has a broken tooth and need to have an extraction. He is overseas in middle east.
He can’t do an extraction here because he gets panic attack. He needs to be unconscious or hypnotized or any new methods.
I have a question.
Has anyone have any idea?
How should he do it when he gets panic attack?
If he needs to be unconscious, how much does it cost?
By the way, he lives in Virginia, Virginia Beach
Thanks

Medication helps in suppressing withdrawal symptoms. A lot of times, the reason why a drug addict can’t quit on his own, is because of the withdrawal symptoms. Having a drug that would be able to free the patient from these symptoms would matter much. Another reason is that medication helps bring the brain functioning back to how it once was. Drugs, such as heroin, interfere with the functions of the brain. The medication reverses the effects brought about by illegal drugs.
Why Is It That There Are People Who Undergo Drug Rehabilitation Who Still Go Back to Taking Drugs Afterward?
Question by CARRIE S: Why is it that there are people who undergo drug rehabilitation who still go back to taking drugs afterward?
Does this mean that the drug rehab program that they were made to undergo just wasn’t effective enough? Or is it more of the fault of the individual?

Looking for a Drug-Free Psych Doctor for My Son.?
Question by Dawn: Looking for a drug-free Psych doctor for my son.?
My son who is 22 has taken long-term medications for his OCD, one anti-psychotic for nearly seven years! In the last few months, his Psych. doc has had to change his SSRI medication over and over, due to side effects as well, but these seem to be causing more side effects and problems. He is either manic or can barely keep his eyes open. I am seeking a Psychiatrist who can wean my son off of all of his meds under supervision (my son’s desire as well) and treat his issues drug-free if possible. Prefer a doctor in Washington state (where we live), Oregon or Northern California. The Psych docs here (we are in a small town) in the last few days, have only wanted to sub new meds for the old, many of these drugs have long-term serious health risks. Please help us if you have any leads for us. Thank you all so very much.
