I am an addict 14 March 2007
Shea l Russell, retail Send response to journal: Re: I am an addict mashfan5{at}hotmail.com Shea l Russell	Hello, I am addicted to cough syrup. I consulted my family physician, and he brushed it off. I went to detox for 6 days and managed to stay clean for 6 months, but I have become addicted again. The problem is, is that it is too accessible, we need to get pharmacies to put cough syrup and other items containing DM behind the counter. I am yet again trying to quit abusing this easily attainable drug, but it is really hard to do....there is no Cough Syrup or DM Anonymous.
