Article: If you're at home, toilets, sinks, and buckets will be your best bet. Sinks aren't really great because if your vomit comes out chunky, you'll probably have to fish your own vomit out of the drain. If you're outside, try to get away from people and their belongings. Nothing makes you more ticked off when some random drunk comes and spews all over your car. Try to find a forest or an empty lot. You can throw up on the open ground in one of those areas. Some people are assaulted with waves of nausea, and aren't really sure that they need to throw up. In this case, vomiting might not be all that comfortable because it's unnecessary. Other people know that they're going to vomit perhaps they've had too much to drink and purging is an inevitability. Look for these telltale signs that you or someone else is going to vomit: Lips turn pale, lose all color. Start sweating, feeling excessively hot. Start salivating a saltier-than-usual spit. Extreme discomfort in the stomach. Dizziness, an aversion to movement. There are a few things that you can try to do to prevent your body's vomiting response. Try these before you force yourself to vomit: Drink small amounts of clear, sweetened liquids such as soda or fruit juices (orange and grapefruit juices are not advised because these are too acidic). Rest either in a sitting position or in a propped lying position. Activity may make nausea even worse, leading to vomiting. Your body will do the trick itself if you give it enough time, or if you just want to get it all over with as soon as possible, use the following emetics: Medications, such as syrup of ipecac, or salt- or mustard-water, can be taken orally to induce vomiting. Use your fingers to stimulate the uvula. Take one or two fingers, place them in back of your mouth, but do not try to touch the uvula, which is the little dangling flap of skin at the back of the throat. Watch another person vomit. Seeing another person throw up can increase your likelihood to vomit. While it's difficult to spontaneously will nausea on someone else just to induce vomiting, it is possible to watch videos online.

When the vomiting feeling comes over you, get your mouth close to the toilet bowl or container, preventing spray or spillage. If you're outside, the closer you are to the ground the less splatter you'll produce. When you're done, drink some water. It will wash away the acidic taste. Also, if you have to vomit again, your stomach isn't empty; vomiting with an empty stomach can be very painful.

Article: Have your loved one talk to a doctor truthfully about their drug use to help devise a plan to stop. Along with offering treatment options, the doctor can also give you an examination to determine how much damage has been wrought after chronic drug use. The doctor may also recommend ways to receive support, such as through a psychologist, member of the clergy, social worker, or counselor. Firstly, your loved one needs to stop using cocaine in order to remove it from the body. Detoxification is designed to manage the acute and potentially physiological effects of stopping drug use. However, because withdrawal symptoms are often extremely unpleasant and potentially life-threatening, detox should be monitored by a medical staff or physician. Help your loved one find a treatment program experienced with cocaine detoxification. A doctor may administer medication to help with the withdrawal symptoms to make this process less difficult. Unfortunately, detox only removes the drug from the body, and does not eliminate the psychological, social, or behavioral problems that may contribute to the addiction. Other treatment approaches will be needed as well. Look into support groups, such as Narcotics Anonymous to connect with other people who can relate to what you are going through. Many people who use cocaine may be doing so to mask feelings associated with a different mental health issue, such as depression. That is why it is important to identify underlying issues and seek treatment for emotional problems you may experience while attempting to stop using cocaine. Some patients suffer from depression and severe mood swings while they are quitting, and taking antidepressants or other medications may help. Medication may also help with the fear, guilt, self-loathing, and anxiety that addicts often suffer during their recovery. Decide if you should enter an inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation program to combat your addiction. Inpatient programs provide around the clock care to patients and typically require the patients to live there during treatment. Outpatient rehabilitation programs typically involve meetings and daily check-ins to offer support and medical care to those who are quitting cocaine. After detox, it's important to participate in such a program to further prevent drug use, but also to continually have your loved one's condition monitored by medical staff. These programs can last anywhere from 4 weeks to 6 months or longer. Your loved one will receive treatment, but also get support from professionals, learn tips for overcoming cravings, and develop better coping strategies for dealing with stress.

Article: You'll get the best flavor of coffee by grinding whole beans just before brewing. Measure out 30 g of whole beans and place them in your grinder. Grind the beans until they're medium-fine which is about the size of coarse sugar. Burr grinders will give you more control over the grind and will make more uniform grounds than blade grinders will. Measure 3 tablespoons (about 30 g) of coffee grounds into the moistened filter. Shake the brewer a little so the coffee grounds are at an even level. Level grounds will make the coffee extract evenly. Then place the carafe with the brewer on a digital scale and set it to zero. You'll need to keep track of how much water you're pouring over the grounds, so the scale comes in handy.
