LINDSAY LOHAN'S OPTIONS (Sobriety Plan)

Visit amusement parks to get a natural high
This guideline is written for someone who is not so physically addicted to alcohol or opiates. Full on addicts should visit a detox to avoid complications or even death.

Damn, no drinking or drugging for Lindsay Lohan. This means she can't even detox with a little herb that always makes the transition off of alcohol a little easier. Well, here's some tips to help our Linds have a fighting chance of not getting her ass thrown in jail.
1. Get a psychiatrist and get a boat load of medications.
a. Naltrexone. Stops the cravings but won't make you sick. It's not Antabuse
b. Adderall. They really are amphetamine salts. Substitute crack/meth
c. Zoloft or Paxil. Makes you magically indifferent...
2. Purchase a fancy espresso/cappaccino/coffee maker w/built in grinder
a. seek out fancy flavored gourmet coffee beans
b. purchase or make flavored sugars (must be sugar, no substitutes)
c. purchase an array of flavored coffee creamers and real whipped creams

3. Find an obsessive "hobby" like cleaning and organizing

a. Scunci brand steam cleaner is addictive and fun to watch the dirt melt away
b. Swiffer dusters can be just as addictive
c. a vacuum cleaner w/a see through cannister
d. a carpet steam cleaner. Watching the dirt being removed can be obsessive
e. a label maker
f. Japanesque storage containers and cases

4. Find a recovery group like NA or AA that is diversified and upscale
a. a group w/a sense of humor is equivalent to visiting a comedy club
b. avoid groups and 'rooms' that seem depressing
c. choose peers wisely. Avoid recovering addicts that have replaced their addiction
with stalkerish tendencies
5. Stock up on favorite candies, gums and fancy cigarettes if you smoke
a. only purchase fine candies that pack a flavor like Werthers, Jolly Rancher or
any confections made in Pennsylvania Dutch country (best spearmint hard candy)
b. visit smoke shops and buy Canadian Player's or DuMauriers in elegant packs

6. Start up a skincare routine and pack it in an attractive ditty bag or makeup case
a. obsess on cleaning pores and smoothing texture (see my alternative to Biore
Pore Strips )
b. pull out all the stops w/the money you've saved by abstaining from drugs
7. Start a hobby that is artistic and focus inducing
a. painting blank silk or cotton clothing
b. manufacturing quality gemstone jewelry

Hand Painted Silk
8. Vitamin Supplements
a. Ginseng, DHEA or other energy boosters (check w/doctor first)
9. Get the sleep problem under control (probably what led you down the path)
a. Find/ switch around various sleep aids to combat the coffee and stimulants
Getting sober doesn't mean you have to drink crappy coffee and visit depressing church basement meetings w/mostly old men in attendance. Find the upscale and attractive groups if that's what it will take to be in attendance. If you're used to the finer things then by all means indulge in a finer recovery. Whatever it takes. Reward yourself daily.

The kind of 'rock' you want to invest in
Below is a sort of bibliography of tips geared for a woman who is entering recovery and is used to the finer things in life. Surprisingly, these sources aren't expensive but rather cheap. It's your creativity and production of the finished product that give them their value.

Cheap as hell
Remember, avoid assholes that will stress you and hobbies in which you would indulge in during your addiction. I avoided cooking for awhile b/c it was really difficult to prepare a gourmet meal without having a big glass of chablis on deck at all times.
Always remember, you're an addict not a freaking serial killer! It just means that some substances make you feel a feeling that other non-addicts don't have; brain chemistry to produce that euphoria. Maybe food is their drug. Never, EVER forget that the disease has an upside. Addicts are usually obsessive perfectionist by nature. Some of the greatest artists of all time carried these demons. A sober addict will always out perform a non-addict. You'll be hard pressed to find an addict who has a boring personality. So if it takes a little conceit to admitting to being an addict, then go right ahead. You were always arrogant, anyways...

Never thought So then...does that mean recovering drunks should just suffer? When one is keeping the demon at bay, sugar becomes a really good tool to have in your arsenal. From GOOP: And here’s how to handle an acute sugar craving: Take L-Glutamine, 1000-2000mg, every couple of hours as necessary. It often relieves sugar cravings as the brain uses it for fuel. ...
