Cocaine Addiction & Recovery Support Group

Cocaine addiction is the excessive intake of cocaine, and can result in physiological damage, lethargy, depression, or a potentially fatal overdose. Though the immediate craving to do more cocaine is strong and very common, this feeling usually subsides in most users within an hour. This craving can, as it has in many users, develop rather quickly into an intense...

Looking for some schools for troubled teens - ranch types with kids with drug problems. Year long programs....

My son really needs to be in some kind of in-patient rehab but refuses to go to our local 45 stay facility. We need to whisk him away and to get some real help. Know of one in Montana but need to see if there are others out there that any of you are aware of.

thanx

There is one ummmmmmm, I do not know the name but if you go to oprah.com or was it Doc Phil???Any ways there is a ranch for teens (boot camp) that Doc Phil had on I believe (I do not watch t.v any more)and am not an advocate for t.v (my ego had to throw that in)I had went to the ranches web site from Doc Phils I not remember how to get to it but since your on the search I trust your winds beneath you will guide you.Once you get to the Doc Phils site (or oprah's) I know that window of oppertunity to get into treatment varies and I wish you the best in your search.

I actually did write Dr. Phil and attempted to write Oprah but never finished the letter. Thanks...
Note: I am now looking at a facility called Ironwood that is located in Maine - (quite a ways from Montana). The one at Ironwood looks better. I got the impression that the Montana facility (Spring Creek Lodge) was a bit to anxious to "help" me. I had just hit the send button asking about their program when the phone rang. It was them. They even called me a few times after that and sent a few e-mails. I think I've changed my mind about it because I looked into lawsuit claims under their name and they had had a string of them.

    I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
