Addiction

Addiction? What does it mean? Some say its something that you can't get rid of or have a hard time trying to. Others say its a habit or practice that is not healthy for you. Both are right. When you hear the word: Addiction, what do you think of? Personally, I think of drugs and alcohol. They are both deadly and very addictive. That addiction is very hard to get rid of and truthfully you cant do it by yourself.

Lately, I have been watching this new MTV show called "Gone Too Far". I recommend it to everyone.

Its about how Adam "DJ AM" Goldstein helps addicts of all kinds of drugs and alcohol clean and sober themselves up. DJ AM, himself, did drugs. He sobered up long enough to help other people but died this year in a sad sad death. This show is very emotional. To date, it is the only show to have made me actually shed real tears. It has made me realize things that I have never thought about so before.

Lately, I have been thinking about new careers. A couple weeks ago, I wanted to own my own record company, of course, a rock music record company. People told me I would have to be prepared for the true saying "sex, drugs, and rock n roll". I considered myself ready at this young of age. I would be even more ready by the time I would open it. But after watching the latest episode of "Gone Too Far", I realized that I could help people with their drug issues and alcohol addiction in a rehab center. I would be able to use my knowledge of heroin and meth to use in a very productive way. Mind you, those are the two of the top deadliest drugs known to mankind as of now. And also the two drugs I would like to try under a controlled project (which consists of trying it once, not a high dose, with clean equipment, and then going to rehab *side note there are people who do that to better understand how to help people with their addiction).

If you do know anyone who is experiencing problems with addiction, get them help. No one thing is worth being addicted to. We should be free to live our lives and not be weighed down by some thing that is bad for us. DJ AM helped people recover from their addictions and so can we.
