How Can I Help My Big Brother Overcome His Drug Addiction?

Question by cal: How can I help my big brother overcome his drug addiction?
My big brother is having a relationship with Mary Jane (marijuana). He knows that it’s not good for him but he says he likes what it does to him so he continues to use it. The thing is, Mary Jane’s really affecting his life. He’s getting failing grades in school (he’s really smart so I don’t know how that happened) and he’s getting worse at baseball. He even spends more time locked up in his room with Mary Jane than hanging out with anyone else. I think he really needs help. He’s such a gifted person and I don’t want his talents to go into waste. We’re from Eastport, Maine.

Is Alcoholism a Disease?

Question by Leah K: Is alcoholism a disease?
Some say it is a disease. It’s the only disease where all you need to do is stop putting a specific substance into your body! My father had a real disease, cancer. Boy I sure wish he could have cured his disease by going to AA meetings and simply not putting a substance into his body.

Hey Alcoholics: SIMPLY DON’T PUT THE STUFF INTO YOUR MOUTH! Don’t claim you have a disease. There are plenty of people out there with REAL diseases. All the people with cancer and AIDS would love to trade diseases.
