Question by : My 18-year-old brother is addicted to meth. He wants to quit, but can’t afford rehab, no insurance.?
He is not interested in NA or any faith-based program. Are there any proven state-funded programs or at least semi-affordable programs? He lives in Cali. He dropped out of high school and has little motivation to do anything, despite being smart and good-looking. My parents basically let him do whatever he wants, and I don’t trust them to change or be able to help. He wants to learn to discipline himself and get a job, etc. but first he needs to kick the drugs.

Call your local hospital or get in touch with a psychiatrist. Both would know all your options regarding rehab. No, he may not be interested in NA or faith based programs, but those options are utilized by people who are atheists as well. He is the one who got on the drugs in the first place and an arrogant approach as to what he will make use of to kick them is not going to work in his favor.
