On a vaguely related note, apparently there is now an instant detox to serious opiate addiction like heroin. I read this in Wired a couple of months ago. Very interesting article:

"For 70 years, thanks to Alcoholics Anonymous, addicts have been told they're suffering from a spiritual problem. AA assumes that you can talk someone out of their addiction - which is ridiculous. Addiction is a medical problem. If somebody has cancer, you don't try to talk them out of their disease."
