Second Chance Programs, JSettles2

Comments With Dr. James Haney Presents*Second Chance Programs, with JSettles, founder of a house of rehabilitation for former prison inmates, who have been convicted, served their time, and need a second chance in coming back into society, Part 2 This Video has Enhanced Text (et)*drjhaney Homicide among black males is an alarming problem and is often drug related, according to Dr. Winbush, but the statistics are not clear. There is an "increase in violence in places like Washington, DC, while Los Angeles, for example, has manifested a sharp decrease in the past year in spite of the gang problems. After the 1992 riot a truce was called between two of the worst street gangs in LA history, the Crips and the Bloods. There has been virtually no violence between these two gangs since this truce. Before the truce there were 20 to 30 of them dying in street violence each month. "There is evidence throughout America that black males are becoming more aware of their own responsibility in dealing with their situation. They are beginning to talk to each other. Black churches have a major role to play in this issue as well as other religious groups, such as the Nation of Islam. The Nation of Islam took Malcolm X out of prison and continues to do the same for others throughout our community," Winbush notes

Anger and Addiction

You may have justifiable reasons for being mean and acting ugly. I am convinced that somewhere someone really hurt you; they betrayed your confidence. They abused you and left you with a memory of misery and pain. It is by far not my intent to be insensitive, but holding on to the pain of the past can cause more damage to yourself than the individual or individuals who injured you. The things we suffer can either make us better or bitter. Such volumes of pain would easily destroy us if we had not found avenues to cope. We needed a way to avoid pain and simultaneously institute a soothing pleasure. Food, cocaine, alcohol, heroine, sex and a number of unnamed addictions became our answer. We knew we could count on them to calm the beast of anger on the inside. Soon, we forgot why we were angry at all. All we knew was we could "fix" the frustration, loneliness, boredom and disappointment with one act of indulgence. One act of indulgence became two and two became three until we found ourselves caught in an infinite, dizzying helix of pleasure and pain.

How deceived we have become. We cover pain with our anger and we cover anger with addiction. All the while the pain festers beneath. It fuels the fire. In brief moments of clarity or we see what we are doing to ourselves. It is at this time we have the courage to say, "I give up", and not on life but on the charade we played so long. We find the courage to face ourselves and the unsightliness inside us.

The rush of rage can produce a similar high to your common street narcotic. The problem is you manufacture the drug in your head. Your mind and your body may be conditioned to "overheat" any time you feel fearful, threatened or insecure. The cravings for anger will not subside quickly. You may need to enlist a variety of coping mechanisms to get you through the tough times.

You should look for someone to talk to. If you look hard enough there may be people already in your life in whom you can trust. If not find someone who has a listening ear. Pastors, priests, therapists and community group members dedicate their lives and time to listening and helping those in crises.

Educate yourself. Reading books or listening to CD's brings a since of self-awareness. When you become self-aware you become better skilled at managing your emotions and controlling your behavior.

How to Choose the Right Drug Detox Rehab Program

Alright, your son or daughter or Uncle Bob has finally decided to get help for addiction. Now what?

If you have ever searched for a drug treatment center before, you know what is ahead, phone calls on top of phone calls and then some very tough decisions.

Some of the questions you need to answer are:

1. Should we go for the treatment facility right here in town or choose one far away?
2. What treatment method will be right for Uncle Bob?
3. How long should the treatment take?
4. Will a religious program be best?
5. How much will it cost?

In the end, the biggest question will be, was it successful?

There are hundreds of drug abuse treatment facilities out there and most hover around a 25% success rate. Success means the addict is no longer addicted and stays stably and permanently off drugs or alcohol. Those are not good odds. It is pretty clear why many experts claim addiction is incurable.

Let's look at our questions.

1. Local or distant?

That one is pretty easy. Drug treatment programs are voluntary. There are no locks on the doors. It has to be that way, the drug user will have to stay off drugs on his or her own willpower in the end. Self-determination is learned by making the right choices. While going through treatment, especially the first portion of treatment, it is best for the person to be in a setting that does not offer a short taxi ride to some well-known drug dealer. So it is very advisable to get them out of the area where they have been using drugs.

2. What method of treatment?

Choose a method that will not end up with the addict still addicted to drugs!! This may sound pretty stupid, but many programs send the addicts packing after an expensive 28 days with pockets full of prescription drugs to which they are now addicted!

3. What length of time should it take for addiction treatment to be completed?

If anyone gives you an exact answer to this one, realize they do not know what they are talking about. No one can give a precise time frame to the completion of a program of this type. The common "28 days" is definitely not based on any kind of science. It is usually just the amount of time for which the insurance companies are willing to pay. Choose a detox rehab program that has no set time limit. Make sure it does not continue to charge more for every week but has a set cost, whether the program takes three months or six months, same price.

4. Will a religious program be right for this particular drug user?

It depends on the individual. If the program is based on religion and every addict who goes through must subscribe to the religion, then a large percentage of addicts will not do well there.

5. How much will treatment cost?

There are no free programs. Even the rare treatment facility that does not cost the patient any money is not free. These are expensive propositions that must be paid for. Usually it is the taxpayers or some charitable foundation who pays. These places are famous for long waiting lists and the old saying, "You get what you pay for." fits here better then most places.

In the end, the location, flexible periods of treatment and the employment of effective treatment methods will make the difference between success and failure for the addict. So get some professional advice and really look into the various offerings. Watch out for any expensive treatment that stresses luxury and short stays or that suggests sedation and other drug therapy. And keeping the user in the same area where all his or her drug connections live...well, what do you think?
