  The Addiction Project is produced by HBO in partnership with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) and the National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism (NIAAA).

  I would suspect that the involvement of so many non-profits - especially granting organizations like the RWJF - is the real impetus for HBO streaming the shows for free. And those orgs probably deserve most of the credit for this “first” for HBO.

  I am given, unfortuneately, false hope as I watch these great addiction successes. You see I am from Edmonton, Alberta Canada and have two sons (31 @ 33) both with serious, muiltiple addictions, but alas here in the north we are still in the caveman stage for addictions and the rehab that is needed. Keep on keeping and I will continue to watch and dream.

  profanity and drugs hurt this presentation. only the early and ending surf scenes have merit.

  I too have been using opiod painkillers for almost 9 years, i need a program like the one described in the series for the young couple who were getting off opiod addiction, in Canada they don’t even recognize suboxone, do you know of any help ? Please I’m dying out here…

  Are there any new medications out for adiction to cigarettes, besides wellbuteren?

  I have heard there is a new drug that takes away cravings. is this true?

  also what were the medications mentioned for alchol treatment?
  thank you!

  to answer # 11’s question, I live in Calif.
  SUBUTEX is a deritive of suboxone. most of the pain management doctors here are now using this drug. It is absolutely a miricle drug that works
  within an hour or two. call dr hirtle in burbank ca.
  he is a pain and addiction specialist-great person
  if he is too far for you he can prob. refer you to someone in your area, or look up painand addiction dr’s in your area and simply ask if they use suubutex for treatment of opiates! G.L.;)

• 14. jettybane  |  September 14th, 2007 at 2:02 pm

  ps. it is an outpatient solution and most insurance covers the medication and office visits!

  to: Ronnie Cool do what your parents want to do for you.
  It makes a lot of difference when you are talking to someone with all your teeth , trust me i know. It makes a lot of difference in your life when you are not ashamed to say what you want to without fear of someone making a comment on no teeth. I hope you value my experience.
