Is heroin more addictive than other drugs? I lost my son to an overdose last year and I’m really trying to understand what happened and why. Please help – your site seems the only place that isn’t telling me he was a hopeless addict and this is new to me because everything I heard before and after his passing was that he was a hopeless addict.

Wow, I just came across this site and am appalled by the things you are saying! Addiction is a chronic illness, I cannot believe you say it isn’t. You people are crazy when you say it is not a chronic illness.

I was reading your website about the freedom model, and noticed that you talk a lot about getting over alcoholism and drug addiction for good. I think that’s great, but there are people out there that cannot recover from this disease. Obviously the homeless drunk is not able to free himself from the grips of booze. So try to be more careful how you portray “getting over” or “moving on” as you put it, from alcoholism and drug addiction.

I cannot believe you say that loss of control over drugs and alcohol is a myth! You people are crazy. An alcoholic or drug addict is out of control. That’s just the way it is. Stop lying to people!

How can you say alcoholism is not genetic? Just look at the Irish or American Indians. Obviously this proves that alcoholism is a genetic disorder.

I’ve been sober for a few months now and I’m beginning to struggle because I have a lot of time on my hands since I quit cocaine and drinking. Does The Freedom Model have a goal setting module or goal exercises to keep me sober?

You Asked, We Answered Addiction Questions We get this a lot. The only goal that needs to be addressed is what level of use you truly prefer – continued heavy use, reduced use, or abstinence. Whether or not you set ancillary goals that address other portions of your...

The drugs we have today are so much more addictive than they were 20 years ago when we grew up. I think your book avoids this reality, and is irresponsible because of it. Please stop saying people can easily get over an addiction. That might just get someone killed!
