Guest guest Posted May 14, 2001 Report Share Posted May 14, 2001 Right at this very moment there is a chap on APA Div 50 (the listserv of the addictions division of the American Psychological Association) who is advocating that politicians and Fortune 500 types should be " prevailed upon " to practice 12 step to overcome their " addiction to power " . He says that he just *knows* that addiction is the root of all evil and 12 step the cure of it. apparently a recent cause of his rantings is the postings on alt.recovery.from-12-steps of SMART co-ordinator Vorous, a polite, mature man, questioning the effectiveness of AA. For all this man's commitment to 12-step, his commitment to anonymity is rather illustratedby the fact that when questioned on his professional qualifications to make such claims on a psychologists' list, he listed his AA resume, as if that compared with professional ceritification and clinical experience.

Guest guest Posted May 14, 2001 Report Share Posted May 14, 2001 Benzo's didn't come out until the late 1950's. I wrote an interesting post a few months ago that I edited and Jack put it in JRR (Journal of Rational Recovery). The first, Librium, was believed to be used for alcoholic withdrawal, then " facilitating a good therapist-patient relationship on the road back from alcoholism " , " fewer anger outbursts, able to communicate effectively " were the claims, all endorsed by the ASAM. If you take a medication, your responsibility is 100%. If you say " I'm addicted " , the doctor will take that into consideration. He should probably ask you if you intend to take them as directed. But that's all. Of course, every doctor when asked, or even without being asked and of course if you say you've had a history of addiction, will give the addictive potential (mod. to high physical, mod. emotional from what I understand as an average.) If you were misinformed, that's another story. In the 1960's, apparently, physicians didn't know that benzo's were addictive. But from the '70's on I think there is widespread understanding of what they are and how they work. But the bottom line: you want Ativan for sleep, he says you know it's a benzo (addictive, etc.) you say yes, if you have a history of insomnia, Ativan or Ambien are probably the two top pharmacological approaches. So then it's 100% patient's responsibility. Controlled Substances are manufactured in quotas, so you would be taking away from a patient if a shortage were to result. And this is a TREMENDOUS problem among chronic pain patients. Doctors seem scared out of their whits, from the family friends I talk to who are MD's as well as other bits and pieces. Highly powerful painkillers are manufactured in the smallest quotas (Schedule II-incidentally, Dexedrine, the very first medication for alcoholic treatment, is and always has been a Schedule II highly addictive!) Kayleighs, you agree with this, right? As long as the doctor and patient are informed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember this being the case, too. I hadn't thought about it in a long time. I used to exercise quite a bit in high school, rather compulsively, I have to admit. When I became a full fledged bulimic, I saw exercise as a waste of time - I'd figured out an " easier way " . When I was 19 and going to OA sometimes and AA most of the time and living with a 39 year old man from AA, my Dad took my car away as a punishment. He didn't care for the 39 year old man. My city has a bad case of urban sprawl and terrible public transportation, so I had to ride my bike everywhere. I remember my OA sponsor being concerned, despite the far more destructive bulimia that was still going on, that I might be " using " the incidental exercise I got from not having a car. I still shake my head when I think about her. Even if the bike riding hadn't been a necessity and even if I had been exercising compulsively, that would have been far better than the method I *was* using to control my weight. I guess she was never a fan of the " harm reduction " idea.

Guest guest Posted May 16, 2001 Report Share Posted May 16, 2001 I am not entirely sure what you are asking me. If the question is, may doctors prescribe potentially addictive drugs as long as the patient knows it is potentially addictive and the doctor knows the patient's history of addiction, then the answer in this state is " No. " There are certain exceptions, mainly for chronic pain patients, but I'm not up-to-date on what they are, or even on how " chronic pain " is defined. I can also tell you from personal experience, however, that some doctors believe that treatment is looney-tunes and the diagnoses of alcoholism and addiction are often wrong, since they are made by pseudo-professionals who have (perhaps not as much now as in the past) a very strong profit motive. Those doctors will sneer at past diagnoses and prescribe as they think is appropriate. They also make distinctions, based on the behavior of the patient, as to whether the patient is likely to abuse a particular drug or not. For example, my doctor will prescribe Valium or pain pills for me without any fear that I will abuse them. He would be much more cautious with my husband. (Clarification: he prescribed five days worth of Valium for me once to get me through a very anxiety producing, temporary, situation. On two occasions he has prescribed one tablet for me to get me through kind of scary medical procedures. On maybe three occasions when I was injured he has prescribed pain pills that are defined as potentially addictive for varying periods, depending on how extreme the pain was. This is only my general practice physician, doesn't include prescriptions that surgeons or orthopedists have given me. The surgeons and orthopedists did not inquire about my history.) > Benzo's didn't come out until the late 1950's.
