Doctors tend not to talk about "recovered drug addicts," and prefer the term "inactive addicts" those who dont use drugs right at given moment. In your opinion, is it not possible to get rid of this label? Even in the opinion of drug treatment experts, patients remain forever addicted. How can the modern society be taught to have an adequate attitude toward former drug addicts and consider them as a part of the society?
Discrimination of those who are in the process of getting rid of addiction is not acceptable. Society needs to learn a lesson from the past experience of the person who went through rehabilitation. Experience of former addicts can be used to fight drug abuse among current drug addicts. It is necessary to change the consciousness of the society, so that people try to help drug addicts, and not condemn them. I believe that this to achieve this, appropriate measures should be carried out by the governments. I appreciate your hard work. You are making an enormous effort to prevent drug abuse around the world working from Kyrgyzstan.

What should be in the Internet age and growth of online communities informational methods to combat drug addiction? What do you think, what means will be most effective today, and how the state should behave in order to successfully affect the suffering of drug addiction and to conduct prevention among healthy population?
Today, among us there are people who have received unwanted email from drug traffickers at least once. Recipient of the email, of course wonders: "How have they figured out my email address? » I think today it is impossible to stop such things as the Internet space is not controlled by anyone. State intervention in this case (blocking e-mail), will lead to a violation of freedom of expression and communication. Therefore, it is a very complicated problem which is difficult to fight. But, of course, the email of the person, calling for a violation of the law in this way, should be blocked and deleted. One possible option - is to carry out propaganda in everyday life, so people are don’t get trapped when they receive such an email.
