How to Beat Drug Addiction
Here are some helpful tips for those who are trying to get clean and stop using drugs.

Decide that you do really want to stop using drugs. Unless you have the desire to change you will never be able to.
Be completely honest with yourself and others. Your chances of recovery are not good if you cannot face yourself and deal with confrontations from others.
Remove influences that enable your drug use from your life.
Avoid relying on someone to stop doing drugs with you, as he or she may not have the willingness to change. You must be willing to stop spending time with people who use drugs, and to avoid temptation. Learn to walk away from those that insist on using or talking about using in front of you. It may require you to be alone for a while or find a whole new set of friends to hang out with. It will shock you to find out how much healthier your friendships will be once you are not using drugs to smooth out the rough spots.
Stock up on nutritious, easy-to-eat foods such as soup to keep your strength up while clucking (going through withdrawal). Be especially sure to focus on your protein intake. This will help keep your blood sugar level stable, which in turn helps keep your mood on an even keel.
Find a group in your local area such as Narcotics Anonymous. It will help you deal with the issues that come up when stopping drugs. Although the name may be misleading, recovering users of all kinds are also welcome at Alcoholics Anonymous.
Get in touch with a reliable friend who does not take drugs, if you have one. Ask him or her to stay with you to help out while you go through the worst of your withdrawal.
If you feel you cannot deal with withdrawal by yourself, then see a doctor or go to a hospital emergency room.
Write down a list of things you enjoyed doing before you started using drugs or things you've been interested in doing that you haven't done yet. Drugs have been a big part of your life and it will be easier for you if you plan ahead to fill the void that their absence will create.

Why your body spazzes
"He's throwing up, sweating, shaking, etc... not because his body knows that it shouldnt be in there but the body is CRAVING FOR MORE!!! It NEEDS it, his body NEEDS the high it gets, his body misses that feeling so it physically shows him that it wants more by withdrawl symptoms. It is almost impossible to resist the urge to shoot up more, to them it feels like a surreal im in heaven feeling. His body has gotten so used to it that it no longer feels normal to not be high."

Well?
Get your friend on a programme, get him on Methodone and SUPPORT him.... If he really wants to get clean, he's gonna need YOU his friends more than ever.

quote
Ibogaine is a psychoactive indole alkaloid derived from the rootbark of an African plant - Tabernanthe iboga. In recent years it has been increasingly noted for its ability to treat both drug and alcohol addiction. Both scientific studies and widespread anecdotal reports appear to suggest that a single administration of ibogaine has the ability to both remove the symptoms of drug withdrawal and reduce drug-craving for a period of time after administration. In addition, the drug's psychoactive properties (in large doses it can induce a dreamlike state for a period of hours) have been widely credited with helping users understand and reverse their drug-using behaviour.

Studies suggest that ibogaine has considerable potential in the treatment of addiction to heroin, cocaine, crack cocaine, methadone, and alcohol. There is also indication that it may be useful in treating tobacco dependence. It has also been suggested that the drug may have considerable potential in the field of psychotherapy, particularly as a treatment for the effects of trauma or conditioning.

A single administration of ibogaine typically has three effects useful in the treatment of drug depe
