ADVICE FOR ADDICTS

EDITOR:

Ellen Forney's "How to Kick at Home" gave up a lot of good
information, but I'd like to add something: If you use sedatives to
get through those first awful days of withdrawal and then decide to go
back to dope, you really need to be careful with your dose. The risk
of an OD is much, much higher when you've got sedatives in your
system--and they can linger for more than a day.
