[QUOTE="1905, post: 84251, member: 2668"] It's a choice to not drink, or do drugs. But when you're in the throws of the addiction-it's not a choice at all. There is no way out without help. I don't believe someone who works in a prison can be so uneducated on the subject of substance abuse. Don't the prisoners go through withdrawl? There be so many of them this happens to. Is there help for the prisoners? I really don't know that much about it. I guess if an addict tries not to "use", making a choice not to use, they feel bad. Then they have to. It's hard. People can be mean, drug addicts don't exactly earn the respect of others. We are sympathetic, many are not.(People who work with them should be, however!)-Alyssa [/QUOTE]
