What’s a Website for Teen Guys to Talk to Someone Anonymously About Their Problems?

Question by Ezra: What’s a website for teen guys to talk to someone anonymously about their problems?
My nephews 17, going through a rough patch. He feels like he cant talk to his parents. I think he may be depressed. I know he’s secretly dealing with an oxy addiction at the moment too. Is there any websites I can tell him to go to where he can talk about what hes going through with someone, anonymously? I appreciate it guys, I’m worried about him and I’m not always available to talk with him.

What Jobs That U Can Get That Pays 10.00 an Hr Being a Felon?

Question by princessbrown237: what jobs that u can get that pays 10.00 an hr being a felon?
I have a drug charge and it’s holding me back from being something i want to be. I want to be a medical assistant, or something in the medical field. i’ve heard rumors that i can’t do that because of my charge. i’m a single mother and it’s hard to take care of my 5 month old with only making 7.00 an hr and paying rent / car note / care insurance / utility bills. I want to better my career for me and my son so i can get him the things i need without having to go in debt or not having a place to stay because of my background.

How Can I Get Treatment for Drug Dependency?

Question by Big Bob: How can I get treatment for drug dependency?
Hi. I was just weighing my options for how to deal with my drug problem. I work random 1st and 2nd shifts so inpatient rehab is out of the question, and because of the 1st and 2nd shift switching I couldn’t make every intensive outpatient meeting. I am not quite sure how to handle this. It is very hard for me to just stop using drugs by myself. I would probably go to rehab but I just started this new job I went to school for. Is there any other ways I can get help?

Can You Force an Adult in Indiana Legally to Go Into Rehab or Go to Jail?

Question by Chloe: Can you force an adult in Indiana legally to go into rehab or go to jail?
I’m fearful of losing my 31-year-old boyfriend to a very serious Heroin addiction. I think he deep down inside wants to get better. He has done very little though to find help as he gets frustrated because he has no money or insurance for a rehab facility. He is on death’s door. I’ve seriously considered finding a way to have him arrested but I KNOW that jail will only succeed into keeping clean while he’s there and the second he get out, he’ll use again. He’s done a couple of stints in jail for a few weeks and it did no good. He really needs at least a 3 month drug rehab inpatient treatment facility followed by going to a halfway house or a sober living facility. I don’t want to give up on him. PLEASE HELP! Any links or personal experience stories is greatly appreciated. I’d really like to hear from a lawyer or law student or even a police officer that has dealt with individuals like these. He still has so much to offer this world. When I met him 9 years ago, he was clean and totally different. He was hard-working, very likeable, honest, and strong. He is none of these things now. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP! I do NOT want to have to go to my boyfriend’s own funeral.

Thus, you might be subject to statin treatment even if your “bad” cholesterol is quite low. But why take a drug designed to lower cholesterol if that's not your problem? That seems nonsensical, unless there is very good evidence that statins have other …
