DuWayne Brayton
Portage, Michigan, United States
I am a single dad, single mom, all rolled into one. I am studying psychology and communication, with a smattering of international studies thrown in the mix, at WMU. I am the mentally ill parent of two beautiful boys, both of whom have their own issues with mental illness. And I frequently use strong language. If you are not comfortably with that, this is probably not the place for you.

Links Disclaimer

You might have noticed that I have linked several sites that provide information about the use of many recreational drugs. I am neither for nor against the use of recreational drug use. I believe that the decision to use a particular substance is and should be a personal choice. What I am in favor of, is helping to ensure that when a person chooses to use a particular drug, they do so with the best information available.

The sites that I list should not be presumed to contain information that can be taken as absolute, though many of them do base much of their materials on as much science as is currently available. Please understand too, that just because some people, or even most people have a particular experience with a drug, doesn't mean that you will have that experience. This is especially true of illicit drugs, which by their nature lack the consistency and quality control of pharmaceuticals. When you use recreational drugs you are taking a risk, each and every time.

I am hoping to develop a fairly comprehensive list of resources for people who feel that they need help abstaining or reducing their intake of a particular substance. If you feel that you have a need for such help, please feel free to email me. I will do my best to look for resources in your area and will both email you with the information I find and post information about those resources on my side bar. If you email me for such help, please write: Confidential in the subject line. Also feel free to email me links you believe would be appropriate to this or any of the other link sections.
