  • Your Content for Nothing and Your Clicks for Free

     The first thing my business consultant (read brother-in-law) asked me, when I told him that I wanted to build a website and put AdSense on it was, “Do you want to build a site to help people or to make money?” After thinking about it for a while I couldn’t imagine why I shouldn’t do both. Why not a website that helps people and generates money for me?More

  • Pharmaceuticals: The Next Frontier in America's War on Drugs

     America’s war on drugs, which has been fought in the opium fields of Afghanistan and the cocaine plantations of Columbia, will have to reinvent itself to combat what is set to be America’s biggest drug abuse problem, pharmaceuticals.

  • Vitamins for the Recovering Alcoholic

     I have frequently heard alcoholics who are in early recovery remark that, “If this is what recovery is like, I’d rather go back to drinking.” Vitamin deficiencies, particularly of the B vitamins and vitamin C, may be responsible for much of the lethargy, skin irritation, memory loss and depression experienced by people who are newly recovering from an addiction to alcohol. Though these symptoms may have been ongoing while the alcoholic was actively drinking they may seem less tolerable while not under the influence of alcohol.More

  • Alcohol: When Enough is Enough

     Though there is still some debate about the nature of alcoholism, most professionals now understand it to be a chronic and sometimes fatal disease, likely with a genetic component. In the definition adopted by the National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, alcoholism is characterized by “impaired control over dinking…and distortions in thinking, most notably denial.” What this means for alcoholics is that they are frequently unable to make the decision to stop drinking without help from others.More

  • Alcohol and Drug Rehab Treatment: Critical Decisions

     Choosing the right alcohol or drug rehab center can make all the difference when it comes to entering long-term recovery from an addiction. The task of finding the “right” drug rehab center is complicated by the fact that there are over 13,000 drug rehab facilities around the country. Each of these treatment centers is unique, but being unique does not necessarily mean that they are all equally good.More

     17.6 million American adults are either alcohol dependent or abuse alcohol.

  • Hurting from the Outside- In: The Rise of Self-harming

     Ask any teacher or adolescent counselor what the most disturbing trend they are seeing in teens today is, and they are likely to tell you it's the growing number of "cutters".By cutters, they mean people who hurt themselves or "self-injure" a term that is more encompassing of the many types of behaviors that are actually involved. Whatever the form of self-injury, cutting, burning, biting or any of many other similar behaviors, teens hurting themselves in an attempt to deal with emotional pain is on the rise.More

  • Strengthening Family Bonds by Moving from Dinner to the Internet

     Advocates for children frequently see the Internet as a danger zone for preteens and teens. When one considers the presence of online predators, online gambling, cyber bullying, and a host of other potential dangers it is easy to see how this view developed. Many adults also face problems on the Internet.More
