Fact Or Fiction: Is Britney Spears Joining The X Factor?

Oooh I hope this is true because this would definitely make me watch The X Factor!  Us Weekly is reporting that according to sources, Britney Spears has expressed an interest in joining the judging panel for the talent search show.

We know there’s lot of room for Brit now that judges Paula Abdul and Nicole Scherzinger have been let go, and it has been rumoured that Simon Cowell was looking for a big name to fill the vacancy.  It was even rumoured that Cowell was trying to get Beyonce to sign on to be a judge.

I would love it if Britney Spears joined the show and I think she would be just what the show needed get more viewers.  What do you think? Would you watch Britney as a judge?

Steroid Dependence And Steroid Rehab

When using drugs you alter your brain’s natural chemical levels. Sometimes these changes in levels can cause addiction. A chronic disease, drug addiction can be a very serious problem. Usually, addicts are compelled to abuse drugs and develop a resistance to their effects, causing them to need more of the drug to get the reaction they are looking for. A synthetic drug, steroids are used to mimic the effects of natural testosterone. Athletes have used steroids to enhance their athletic performance. However, many have become dependent on steroids and subsequently start to abuse them, so they must seek steroid addiction rehab.

Drug Addiction

On an individual level, drug addicts invariably lose self-esteem. Drug addiction impairs cognitive functions: Addicts may experience memory and learning problems, and decision-making difficulties. As a result, addicted students often drop out of school. This causes conflict within families. Addicts become estranged from their peers, leading to feelings of isolation and loneliness.

Young Abusers

In the world of steroid abuse, young athletes are very susceptible to becoming addicts. Young athletes become dependent on steroids to help optimize their level of play. Most young steroid abusers are male. Drug addiction treatment is paramount for all addicts, but it is especially important for young drug abusers. Steroid rehab is very important for those young athletes that do not know how to get off the drug on their own.

Testosterone

Steroid abuse disrupts normal hormonal balance and production, and men and women develop severe cases of acne. Males develop breasts, and their testicles become smaller. Sperm production is reduced, causing infertility. Men suffer irreversible male-pattern baldness, and adolescents experience stunted growth. Females become extremely masculine: Their breasts shrink, and the clitoris becomes enlarged. Skin takes on an unpleasant coarseness and hairiness, while scalp hairs become thinner. These changes are permanent for women.

Treatment

Along with physical anomalies that occur with steroid use, psychological disorders are prevalent in many abusers. Violent mood swings, depression, and anger are all commonly associated with someone who is dealing with a steroid addiction. Thankfully, for those who have become dependent on steroids there are many options for recovery. Inpatient facilities, Outpatient programs, and residential rehabilitation are all extremely effective in helping a person get over their addiction. Research shows that people who enter some form of rehabilitation program have an astronomically higher chance of overcoming their dependence to steroids. They benefit from the care that only medical professional are able to offer.

Counseling

Counseling is an essential component of any treatment plan. Group counseling explores the issues that lead to addiction, while providing peer-support. Individual counseling motivates the addict to persevere with treatment, and provides support when treatment ends. Family counseling is crucial when minors are being treated.

Treatment Program

As with any medical detox program, counseling for a steroid addiction is essential. In a group setting, an abuser can get counsel from other addicts as well as clinical practitioners. They become encouraged to stay on a path of sobriety and learn of all the dangers that await them if they continue to abuse steroids. It is important for those who are overcoming an addiction that recovery is an on-going process that does not end with the completion of treatment. It is critical that an addict remain on the path to sobriety by employing the methods they used during their treatment. Meetings, newsletters, and sponsors are all great ways to stay on the right track.
