Preferably, advise should be offered to those who ask for it, rather than being given in an unsolicited manner.

Now I am responding to that plea from a destressed person just like I would repond to a destess from a boat that was looking for direction out of a lost posistion. For why else would Dona write to the people on this board? Now it moves me to try to help Dona and not ignore her SOS. I know of a harbor that she can reach. It is chaired by Yvonne Day. The group helps people find their way out of the addiction to drugs like Ambien. For those of you that wish to defame her, call her yourself in Columbus, Ohio and talk with her. I did and I have referred people to her group and they have had their addiction released. There are some people that believe that they should stay on a drug untill death. There are others that believe that you can go "on and off" a drug. They should not call her for they help people to withdraw permenatly.
