Web of Addictions

Welcome to the Web of Addictions.

The Web of Addictions is dedicated to providing accurate information about alcohol and other drug addictions. The Web of Addictions was developed for several reasons. We are concerned about the pro drug use messages in some Web sites and in some use groups.We are concerned about the appalling extent of misinformation about abused drugs on the internet, particularly on some usenet newsgroups. Finally, we wanted to provide a resource for teachers, students and others who needed factual information about abused drugs.

 

Childhelp

Not surprisingly, the perspectives of the children served by Childhelp are varied. Some have known nothing but abuse and neglect, believing they were alone and that no one cared. Others lived in happy homes with caring, loving families, only to be hurt by someone outside the home, usually someone they already knew and trusted.

 

Stop Silent Suffering

If a loved one or someone you know is going through a progressive late-stage illness… and taking certain prescription pain relievers, a common side effect is constipation that can be debilitating and difficult for them to talk about. But even if they remain silent, you can be their voice. To learn more about ways that can help break the silence, go to our website.

 

The International Paruresis Association

The International Paruresis Association (IPA) was founded in 1996 to raise public awareness about paruresis, provide support, and give out the latest information. Most of IPA’s members and leadership are treatment professionals, people suffering from paruresis or recovering from it, and their loved ones. Membership is open to anyone touched by paruresis as well as those with an interest in supporting others with paruresis, advocating for their rights, and advancing scientific knowledge about the disorder.

 

SleepNet

Sleepnet.com has updated its homepage trying to consolidate all the information available by disorder to make it easier to find the information you are looking for. The size of the site keeps growing and with over 250,000 pages it needs a total reorganization. Hope this helps and I will keep working to make the site’s navigation easier. Hope all is well with everyone.
