i'm currently doin addiction medicine which is a block course tat last for 2 weeks. i tot it is goin to be a boring attachment just like public health tat i had last 2 weeks. but it's actually quite interesting i must say. despite the boring lectures and tutorial on alcohol and drugs we get to go out from the tutorial room for more interesting stuff such as needle exchange place, drugs addict rehabilitation home, and self help group meetin which is the anonymous meeting.
there are lots of different anonymous meeting around which is quite common over here...but i'm not sure whether they do it in malaysia. anyway, i attended an alcoholics anonymous the other day. and there are about 64 meetings at different places in christchurch itself every week. which is crazee lots and it shows how alcohol is a prob here in new zealand. lol! of cos there r other anonymous such as narcotic, overeating, gambling and so on. i'm actually interested in goin for the overeating anonymous eating. it will be really interesting and mebe some of us do haf the addiction as well. haha!

anyway, alcoholics anonymous is a fellowship of men and women who share their experience, strength and hope with each other that they may solve their common problem and help others to recover from alcoholism. which is really cool i think cos others really dun understand how they become so addictive to certain things and what is goin thro their mind and wanting to get more alcohol. it's really interesting for us to listen to their story as well and to understand the condition from their point of view. like how they have no idea that they are addictive, and wanting more but tryin every way to hide from other ppl. and ADDICTION RUNS IN FAMILY...be aware of tat :)
