Hi chris,
Treating drug addiction is not only about withdrawing from drugs and then replacing it with another drug, but it is about treating the underlying biochemical abnormality that causes you to be addicted to drugs. Please read:
Drug Addiction is a Nutritional Disorder at:
http://www.hypoglycemia.asn.au/articles/drug_addictions_nutritional_disorder.htm...
and discuss this with a Nutritional Doctor, Clinical Nutritionist or a Nutritional Psychotherapist, if self-help therapy fails. The first step in treatment is going on a hypoglycemic diet (look up at our web site).
For more information use our "Search our Web Site" and look for articles containing topics entered in search engine.
