I can't really be the person I want to be until I stop but it's really really hard for me to give up smoking, and pot, and booze. So could you people place me in your prayers for giving up drugs and gaining more self control? I would really appreciate whatever help I might get. I dedicate all such efforts to the liberation of all beings.
I have a little bit of hope for you but I hesitate to mention it because it is a pharmaceutical one, and their hype can often be worse then claiming the pundits are coming. The first introduction of this new class of drugs will be in the quit smoking arena, Seems they have been able to isolate the receptor sites for nicotine and allow a substitute drug to occupy those sites without causing withdrawal and eliminating craving as well. Nicotine is a much simpler drug to develop a drug treatment for because it's sites are very specific. Opiate sites are more diverse but they say it appears doable and they are in the testing stage.. Wether the opiate craving can be relieved as effectively as the nicotine craving seems to be is not yet known. The claims are optimistic but again we are dealing with drug co's and mucho $$$.
