			<description><![CDATA[ What should you do when the one you love refuses to get help?  Leave, Let Go and Let God is usually suggested to anyone seeking advice.  My husband of 11.5
years is addicted to crack and after several in-patient programs and 2 different out-patient programs, he has finally thrown in the towel.  I kicked him out of

crack demon crept back... ]]></description>

			<link>http://familiesofalcoholicsandaddicts.yuku.com/topic/55/t/Do-you-have-to-be-an-alcoholic-to-experience-problems-.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ No. Alcoholism is only one type of an alcohol problem. Alcohol abuse can be just as harmful. A person can abuse alcohol without actually being an alcoholic--that is, he or she may drink too much and too often but still not be dependent on alcohol. Some of the problems linked to alcohol abuse include not being able to meet work, school, or family responsibilities; drunk-driving arrests and car crashes; and drinking-related medical conditions. Under some circumstances, even social or moderate... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ My 22yo son is in an outpatient drug treatment for heroin. His father and I are paying for treatment. He has no car, no phone, no job and is living with his gf. He is trying to find a job and seems to be doing well staying clean. I'm living 1500 miles away and I'm having trouble supporting him emotionally-especially since he has no phone. Would it be ok to give him his cell phone back???? This is all so new to me and it's hard for me to know what's right to do. Thanks for any comments. ]]></description>
