Question by Bob Job: How to stop my Opiate addiction?
I have been using opiates for over a year now, sometimes with a perscription sometimes with out. Oxycontin has been my main obsticle and being that it nearly costs a dollar a milligram it can cost up to $ 100 just for one day. I have not been using everyday but every chance I get money thats where almost all of it goes. My mom is aware of this addiction and I have been trying to stress to her that this is a very hard one to break. I have used marijuana, adderall, benzodiazapines, and other perscription medicine. Opiates have this grab on me that is very hard to quit.    Read more...

Answer by D
That’s a surprisingly common pattern, and I dare say methadone clinics are nothing but money making machines for many of their patients. There are methadone users who’ve been “in treatment” for decades. All that to say, some people genuinely intend to utilize it for weaning off and away from opioids. An ethical treatment center would call her on her misuse, but since it’s often part of the addiction, kicking her out would also be the wrong thing to do.    Read more...

Mental Health and Addiction

Mental illness and addiction have no boundaries and affect people from all walks of life. Mental health and addiction treatment services play an important role in supporting Ontarians. Stigma and access are the main challenges for people living with mental illness and addiction. In Ontario, one million people will experience a mental illness, but only 20% will get help. Currently, hospitals, government, community mental health and addiction treatment agencies, and Local Health Integration Networks (LHINs) have the opportunity to improve integration and create a mental health and addiction system that is truly welcoming, comprehensive, coordinated, based on best practices and accessible – not only geographically – but across the client’s lifespan and the continuum of care.
