Movies -- Latest News -- The Tao of Robert Downey Jr.: The New Issue of Rolling Stone -- RollingStone.com: "'And here I was needing to anesthetize like never before. The wife has moved out, the kid's gone, my life is a fucking babyshambles, and I suddenly make the neuropathic connection that there's nowhere the coke can be but the garbage, and I fucking dig in the thing and there it is, and it's so fucking pure and so clean and there I am, in my own kitchen, cooking up some rock — no Vicodin, no Valium, nothing to take the edge off, barely a trace of fucking Absolut Citron left in the fridge, and I just go, 'This is as good as it gets right now.' I just go, 'Bam!,' triumph of the spirit. And the next thing that happens, I'm in custody within two weeks for even stranger reasons, and the phone rings, and it's the phenom's son and he goes, 'Hey, dude, do you have any more of that opium?' I, of course, told him it was opium. Never call it heroin, it's very taboo. But this stuff, this Mexican sludge, just grabbed you by the fucking heartstrings and tore me apart.

Anxiety during Withdrawal from Cocaine | Drug Addiction Treatment: "Relapse is common among those struggling to overcome an addiction to cocaine. Besides the physical ailments associated with discontinuing use of a drug, often psychological factors cause the drug user to be susceptible to a relapse.
It is important to understand the symptoms of a withdrawal, so that treatment centers may be able to better assist individuals with avoiding a relapse. The symptoms of withdrawal are often combated with other medications to ease their potency, making withdrawal more successful.
Santucci and Rosario (2010) recently examined the consequences of withdrawal in an animal model study, looking at how symptoms of anxiety develop during withdrawal from cocaine. The objective of the study was to examine the ways that anxiety levels are influenced by withdrawal, in anticipation that when applied to human beings, relapse risk might be reduced.
The researchers randomly assigned 26 male adolescent Long-Evans hooded rats to one of three groups. The first received daily injections of saline, the second received daily injections of 10 mg/kg of cocaine hydrochloride, and the third received daily injections of 20 mg/kg cocaine hydrochloride."

Heroin Addicts: UN Office Of Drugs And Crime Launches New Report – Talk Radio News Service: "widespread drug abuse in Russia, Iran and Western Europe–main buyers of opium from Afghanistan. Some 30,000 Russians now die from heroin addiction each year. There are two and a half million people (mostly youth) addicted to heroin throughout Russia. The underlying reasons seem to be linked to unemployment, social frustration and general youth disenfranchisement on domestic issues.
Iran has one of the highest proportion of hard drug users in the world as cheap opium and refined heroin easily flow over from the Afghan border. Some estimates put the number of heroin users as high as three million – one in 20 of the population.
“The whole issue is a problem of shared responsibility,” said Walter Kemp, Spokesperson for the UNODC in a phone interview from Vienna. “The question is how to reduce demand and at the same time improve health, justice and security. Afghanistan seizes only 4-5 percent of its drug production while it produces 90 percent of the world’s opium.”
UNODC’s largest criminal justice reform program is in Afghanistan, where the organization strives to rebuild human and infrastructural capacity, and develop national policies in areas of justice and counter-narcotics.
In the United States, the UNODC estimates around 800,000 heroin addicts"

Whitney Houston has canceled more shows in Europe and her “people” are saying it is due to an upper respiratory infection.
Just as reports of Houston’s illness surface, a witness, Marlon David, has come forward to In Touch magazine claiming he saw Whitney (who was hanging out with ex-husbad Bobby Brown) do cocaine at the Beverly Wilshire hotel in LA on March 10th. Marlon says that Houston looked terrible, a disheveled mess. She reportedly came into the bar screaming, “I want a f***ing drink!” followed by more lovely language. Marlon says she seemed completely oblivious as to who was watching. He claims he later saw her do a line of coke while in the establishment.“I saw her pull a plastic bag out, put a folded bill to her nose and discreetly snort a line from it of what to me certainly looked like cocaine. She’s extremely thin and looks like a disaster. She’s a hot mess,” eyewitness Marlon David exclusively tells In Touch.
And believe it or not, Marlon says that Bobby was the sane one, looking embarrassed for Whitney and trying to get her out of the bar.“He had so much trouble trying to control her. He tried to make her leave, but she wouldn’t. She started yelling his name loudly and calling him a stupid son of a b****, and he told her to shut the f*** up.”So basically nothing has changed. I don’t doubt this story for a minute. I think Whitney Houston is simply a vessel for the record companies to make money. Who cares how she performs – or if she is on death’s door – they are trying to squeeze every last dollar out of her, before she kills herself. They threw her out onstage last year before she was ready.I think she probably got clean for a short while, but then being out on the road again she was in the same circumstances that led to her addiction in the first place. She wasn’t strong enough to stay sober. I worried this was going to happen from the very beginning, and it looks like it may have. Sadly, Whitney Houston is washed up, kaput, done with, ruined. She will never, ever be that gorgeous girl with the voice of an angel and a sparkle in her eye. I just don’t see it happening.

After admitting to a string of affairs, the world No.1 is now under investigation for his relationship with a doctor who has been arrested for smuggling human growth hormone.
