As I mentioned in an earlier post, the single biggest thing to get an addict to do is accept they need help....but that help will only work if it is really what the addict wants. I only hope Ant realises that if he wants a normal life again, let alone salvage his career, his recovery needs to be complete, not a half hearted attempt this time.
I know you have no sympathy for him and that's your right , addicts cause pain and destruction. I personally just hope he can beat it and it doesn't consume him any more than it already has.

I think most addicts know they have a problem, so the hardest thing is getting them to seek the help they need.
I also know tramadols a bitch to come off of and it is similar to heroin in its withdrawal symptoms.
So why would a DR keep prescribing them to him after the public became aware of his problems last year?
Maybe because he is a powerfull tv star who can bend the rules? That is why i have no sympathy for him, but loads for his victims.
