Erasmus n' Kinkajou 
Helping In Addiction
Erasmus : This site has been developed to assist people who are the family members of or who are significant others to someone with a drug problem. If someone has a drug problem, and they are relevant to you, it is “you” who now has a problem.
There is a lot of advice and assistance available to people who have drug problems. But “professional helpers” such as the medical industry, often overlook that drug problems affect more than just the person with the addiction. Everyone agrees that the family and significant others are critical in helping a person overcome addiction. But what do you need to do?
What this site aims to do is to give advice to family and significant others (FASOs), on what exactly must be done to assist someone with a drug problem.
The "user" monster
Kinkajou : Helping the substance user/addict often involves tough love. Remember the long-term goal is not just to get them to stop using. The long-term goal is to get them to want -to want- to stop using.
Kinkajou : These different goals imply very different strategies are needed for success.
Kick someone or apply heat and energy, and they will do what you want them to. But this type of action definitely does not get them to want to do - what you want them to do.
Erasmus : I don’t intend for this to be a big site. Everything here needs to be read and thought about, much in the same fashion that a true devotee would read a phantom comic. I’m sure you can speed read everything here within minutes. But the value of this site lies in reading, then understanding and then applying this to your situation. (Paragraph by individual paragraph if need be).
The value of this site is when you go through the site with a notebook and jot down things that you yourself can do to help the SUBSTANCE USER / ADDICT/ User in your life.
The needle and syringe : used by injecting drug users.
Erasmus : Drugs = Substances.
Erasmus : This site aims to provide family and significant others (FASOs) – some directions on how to help their loved ones in dealing with drug (substance) problems.
Drug problems can be treated and with good effect. But the goals of treatment are different for those – ready to stop – and those not ready to stop. Just this simple fact –significantly changes the type of interventions that FASOs (family and significant others) should undertake.
Our editorial team showcases the problems that emerge for drug (substance) users and their FASO s and tell you how to deal with them.
Kinkajou : The most concise advice:
stay onside – you cannot change their behaviour if you are fighting with them and if they are not talking / listening to you.
Look after yourself first. You will have no energy and resources left if you yourself go into crisis. Realise there will be problems. These are predictable. We will tell you what to watch for.
Kinkajou : Our site showcases a range of scenarios that emerge for the drug (substance) dependent. Often a crisis precipitates the need for change in:
## health problems
## Financial problems
## Relationship problems
## and Legal problems.
And the problems, to a devastating extent, often all arrive at the same time. Doing the right thing can keep your drug affected or/drug using friend alive. Make no mistake about it drugs are dangerous. And the problems they cause are dangerous as well. People also suicide and die. Drugs are excellent tools for death.
Erasmus :Too often we say that drug (substance) dependent people do well depending on the people around them and their social supports. But too rarely do we tell people just what it is that they are expected to do for the drug affected person.
This site aims to tell you these things. Finally we discuss ORT – opioid replacement therapy and its role in addiction management. Is almost impossible to help a true heroin (narcotic) user without using ORT. ORT has applicability to some other types of substance use as well. There is a role for methadone and a role for Subutex/Suboxone – but for different people at different levels of substance use addiction.
Goo : With our team, see the drug world through the eyes of experience and know what it is you need to do to make a difference.
IV Drug User.
Kinkajou : I think one of the most critical problems faced by FASOs (Family and Significant Others) is when they should help and when they should not help a substance
user / addict.
Goo : That is not really that hard. You are allowed to help the person. You are not allowed to help them take drugs.
Erasmus : There will always be grey areas. A user needs food. But if you provide food regularly, they will use the money this saves to access more drugs. It can be hard to draw the line.

A Summary of the Erasmus and Kinkajou (EnK) sites.
This page has the necessary contact information for professional and public inquiries Contact for general enquiries
The Team: 
Erasmus met Dr Xxxxx and over a number of years grew to develop a belief in the problems of our world.
CENSORED "ref dxdx" by order of “Frobisher” authorised by “The Commandant”.
He also convinced others such as Dr Xxxxx / Dr AXxxxx ( with lot of arm twisting), Goo, Beethoven , Frobisher and The Commandant to collaborate with him and others in bringing their ideas to the world. "The world will be a better place for our efforts". That is the true strength of humanity. The desire to please and to work together to achieve common goals. (Often selflessly and in spite of the pain resulting.)
Erasmus is an old dog, but he reckons he still can do new tricks. He’s been around, and up and down a few dry creek beds in his lifetime .Born into servitude at the Daisy Hill Puppy Farm, Erasmus quickly realised the world could be a hostile and dangerous place. Puppies disappeared daily, never to be seen again.
Erasmus learned to look at the world with wary eyes.
Kinkajou: Features in our web sites as an adventurer but he is equally accomplished in the art of reasoning and has often followed the comments of Erasmus to their logical conclusion. His belief in the truth leads him to always "tell it true". This is the world as it can be seen and this is the real world.
Dr Xxxxx. This good doctor actually represents a diversity of opinions held by a small cabal of medically aware people.
There is something truly wrong with the medical world.
* Too many doctors tell you that they don’t believe in magic. Yet when you ask them what is the cause of some event in your life, the only answer they have is, "It must be an act of God”. There are "no" answers to lots of questions we may ask about our health or the health of our loved ones.
* Modern medicines are good at making people feel better but all too often the reality is that they do not change the long term outlook of a person’s health. Almost every significant illness that happens has unknown causes. Even in a condition as simple as heart disease, (regarded as having well defined risk factors), doctors cannot predict often "who" will become sick
People with many risk factors remain well, and people with no risk factors become ill and die.
* This can only happen if there is a substantial “gap “in our understanding of the genesis of this illness. Indeed, honest doctors will tell you that about half the risk for developing a heart attack is unexplained.
So in spite of all that has been learned and has been known or discovered until the year of our lord, 2014, in spite of billions of dollars of research and literally the work of millions of researchers, “most “ of the knowledge required to understand risk factors for something as simple as a heart attack, is still unknown.
Dr Xxxxx believes that Paill Spectrum , provides many of the answers, the science of medicine needs. The answers may not be what you like to hear. And if you chose not to listen, you may be the one going down the gurgler, while everyone else looks on.
CENSORED "ref AX1005" by order of “Frobisher” authorised by “The Commandant”.
Dr AXxxxx. Simply best described as a cold inhuman bastard, Erasmus says we are indeed lucky to have this paranoid psychopath on our side. In spite of his antecedents, his perspective is valuable for us to use to understand our world. Dr AXxxxx’s past background is in taking charge and being master at the helm of the ship of destiny. Control is the ultimate goal. Nothing must stand in the way of control. Domination not cooperation. Suspect your enemies and kill them first, preferably after extracting all useful information. Your destiny is yours to make and to take. Vengeance is a heady mix to this paranoic murderer.
An incredible knowledge of science gleaned from a long industrious and studious career in CENSORED "ref dxdx AX1004" by order of “Frobisher” authorised by “The Commandant”.
Biotechnology, provided the grounding for his understanding of human biology.
Dr AXxxxx joins us as a refugee from the “justice” of his peers.
The Commandant: Head of our security detail, the Commandant believes in doing the right thing and always considering safe options. However, his view of what is right is coloured by association with Erasmus, Kinkajou and the doctors Xxxxx.
Frobisher & Beethoven: These guys are our bullywot "security mooks", Frobisher is the literate one while Beethoven provides just more raw muscle power. While Officious and Intolerant of transgressions, they none the less have a sensitive and fragile side to their natures, an aspect their personality totally at odds with their aggressive and fierce appearance.
Goo is a simple and humble mammal.(Actually a marsupial numbat really). His ability to change the world is limited by his meagre intellect and his short life span. Furthermore, as a member of an endangered species, he has to face the prospect of personal death as well as species extinction. He could one day be the last of his kind.
Nonetheless, Goo soldiers on. " The only direction in life is forward" I will be with my friends.
