Where Can I Find Information on Pain Addiction to Write a Paper On?

Question by : Where can I find information on Pain Addiction to write a paper on?
I’m talking about real addiction to pain. Not pain pills or the pain(s) of being addicted to something. The actual addiction to causing yourself pain such as always getting into a horrible relationship or situations where pain will be the outcome. Haven’t been able to find much info except on personal made websites where someone writes their theory and thoughts on the subject. Need professional, documented work for a paper I’m writing for a school. Any websites, books, info, etc. will be much appreciated. Thank you everyone for your time. Take care and have a great and happy new year.
Thank you very much everyone. Really appreciate it.

Bay Area Alcohol in-Patient Rehab Options?

Question by mikeyb: Bay Area Alcohol In-Patient Rehab Options?
Hi Folks. I need your help. My sister is an alcoholic and my family and I feel it would be best for her to commit to an in-patient rehab program. She’s already gone to AA meetings and has multiple DUIs. The problem is that we’re on a very tight budget as it is so it’s unlikely that we’ll be able to afford to pay for this. Are there any non-profit in-patient rehab programs in California (particularly bay area / monterey county)? If so, can someone point me in the right direction?
