Meth rehab, what is a good rehab facility that does not cost too much?

Question by jamc2009: Meth rehab, what is a good rehab facility that does not cost too much?
My son has a meth addition, has had it for 7 years. I want to put him in a treatment center but I don’t know which one. I looked at Narconon but I am afraid of it. It sounds too harsh on an already abused body. Does anyone know it it works or can suggest another one.

Answer by anne
I would talk to a counselor in your area. Is there a hospital in your area with a psych floor? If so you should definitely get in touch with the doctor in that department and find out his opinion, or even speak to one of the nurses on the floor about the issue. You could even call your local hospital and ask to be transfered to someone who might be able to help you with the matter. This is a very serious matter and as a nurse I just don’t think you should rely on an answer that someone gives you on yahoo, but to speak with a healthcare professional. If you would like for me to give you the number to a healthcare facility in my area that may be able to answer your questions, I can.

Q&A: Good Old Washington DC. Don’t You Just Love It When the Politicos Get Caught?

July 26, 2010 - 1:14 pm 3 Comments

Question by rarefind: Good Old Washington DC. Don’t You Just Love It When the Politicos Get Caught?
WASHINGTON – Former Rep. Mark Foley under FBI investigation for e-mail exchanges with teenage congressional pages, has checked himself into a rehabilitation facility for alcoholism treatment and accepts responsibility for his actions, his attorney said Monday.

“I strongly believe that I am an alcoholic and have accepted the need for immediate treatment for alcoholism and other behavioral problems,” Foley said in a statement, Roth told the AP.

And Tony Snow, White Press Secretary says with a smile:
“Oh, this was just a matter of a few “naughty” e-mails
omg!

And so now, Foley sees the need for alcohol rehabilitation, because he “likes teenage boys”
omg! this is so ridiculous !

And Debra LaFave sees the need for treatment for her
“bipolar” because she likes a 14 year old boy
omg this is so ridiculous !

Too bad Clinton didn’t see the need for “bj obsession treatment”
because he liked bj’s.
omg this is so ridiculous !

Excuses, excuses excuses !
Washington !
Ah Fruitsna.
I know yu feel a need to vent sometimes. But this is politics..not what your man did or did NOT do. So listen. I’m 23 and a female. Not promiscuous. But I tell you men are ENTIRELY different from women. A man might get horny 50 – 60 times a day. It’s not that he doesn’t love his wife, if he has one; he just wants a new experience. That’s the ‘dog’ in a man. And Most just can’t help it. Most are just plain dogs! Your husband may well have still loved you. Never know…Just accept iiittt! And if he ever comes crawing back, taaakkke him! No matter who he was with, no matter how many times, he was still YOUR husband. Not hers.
Remember that.

Question by Michelle: I’m seeking a quality alcoholic inpatient rehabilitation facility located in a good area of Las Vegas.?
I’m looking to get my mom into a rehab in Las Vegas. Does anybody know of a good inpatient rehab center within the 0-00 per month price range? It must be located in a good area, and the center must also treat alcoholism (as opposed to solely drug addiction). Thanks so much in advance! I need to find one ASAP.

How to Find a Good Drug Rehabilitation Program

January 22, 2010 - 3:17 pm Comments Off

It may be that you have a problem with addiction or you are a loved one of an addict. Either way, you are all too aware of the denial and fear that keep people from getting the help they need. This is part of the addiction. Once you see there is a problem, the next step is finding a good rehab program.

Addiction affects so many people. There are many lives affected by the actions of just one addict. Because this is the case, it is important to find a drug rehab program that also has resources for family and friends of the addict. Everyone’s thinking and behavior must change in order to achieve success.

Alcohol rehab programs and drug rehab programs should offer a holistic approach to recovery. Addictions affect people spiritually, emotionally and physically, so it is important to treat all of those aspects of the individual. Simply treating one or two of the three will leave a hole in the recovery process. Over time, the addict must learn to focus on the positive and make good choices in their lives. This all happens after the abused substance is removed from the body via detox.

Find a rehab program that is available immediately when you first seek help and also offers programs for every stage of recovery. It is not easy to beat an addiction and it is not done quickly, but it can be done. It is important to realize that there is no magic formula that works for everyone. It often takes more than one attempt to quit for there to be success. The drug rehabilitation program you choose should be able to offer a variety of programs to increase the chances of success.

A rehab program should never promise success on the first try but the focus should none-the-less be on the positive. The program should offer therapeutic applications and medication if needed. It also helps to learn good nutrition habits since the foods we eat play a role in our mental and physical state of being.

Also, the staff at any rehab program should not be judgmental but supportive and understanding. This doesn’t mean they will coddle you, but they should never judge you. Many times a good drug rehab program has staff members that are recovering addicts. Who would know better what the addict is going through?

There are many things that go into a successful drug rehabilitation program but be sure to find one that is there for the long haul. Recovery does not happen overnight and it is important to build trust with the people you are working with to beat the addiction. You do not want to have to build new relationships every step of the way in your recovery. From intervention to a happy and sober life, a rehab program should be with you through it all. Do a little research and find the rehab program that offers the most chance of success overall. Recovery is a journey, not a destination.

What are some good medical excuses for not drinking alcohol socially?

January 11, 2010 - 11:33 pm 7 Comments

I’m into getting into a healthier lifestyle. That also includes not drinking or cutting down on alcohol.

Now, in social situations, when I’m not too much acquainted with the people sitting, I might be asked to drink. And I wouldn’t feel like explaining everything everytimeespecially if some people are not open-minded enough.

Now, I would not deal with people I don’t like then, but there might occur some business or social situations where ignoring the people is not useful at that time.

What are some good excuses in social and business situations to explain why you drink so little or you don’t drink.

I thought, maybe something liver related? Do you know of any (preferably innate) liver diseases that would prevent someone from drinking alcohol and stuff but would not affect stuff in many other ways?
Or maybe something else?

Some permanent diseases would do. :)
Anyway, any ideas anyone?

Thanks.
