Question by Bad Mood: i am in a treatment center for a meth addiction and attending self help groups. will i still go to jail?
I was recently convicted of forgery in march and sentenced to 4 years probation and ordered to pay restitution (0) I lied to the courts and said i didnt have a substance abuse problem. I am again being charged with the same crime(i wrote out checks on my ex boyfriends account while i was under the influance of meth). I knew i had a problem because i couldnt stop no matter how hard i tried. After i was arrested in July of this year i put myself on a waiting list at a local treatment center and graduated thier Intensive rehab treatment program after 8 weeks. I go to 5 self help groups a week and attend AA/NA meeting regularly and also meet with a counselor once a week. Recently i excepted a managing position at a cell phone company and am putting my life back together. i am residing in a half way house and have been clean for almost 6 months. The prosecuter in my case wants me to go to prison. my sentencing date is December 7th 06. does anyone know anyone that has been in my situation

Unfortunately it will depend on the judge if you go to jail or not. You have done everything in your power to get yourself together and maybe the judge will see that.

Good Luck

Question by Solomon: Does anyone know of a free, or cheap, non faith based, non 12 step, meth addiction treatment program?
With all the hype about meth addiction and it’s evils you would think it would be easy to find help. Not so far.
I have been looking for a free, or cheap, non faith based, non 12 step meth addiction outpatient program in the Phoenix Metro area. Something with counselling and medical supervision would be ideal. I cannot afford to not be working since I am self employed. I need to quit, and want to be clean. The cycle must be broken. Does anybody know how to help?

what do you think is the best treatment for meth addiction?

Best answer:

Answer by auntb93
Cold turkey. You will sleep a lot at first, and you will need to discipline yourself not to overeat, but it’s quicker and more effective than tapering off. Besides, once you’ve been through cold turkey once, you don’t want to have to do it again, which gives you incentive to stay off the stuff.

Good luck!

Question by desperate: I was told there is a treatment for people addicted to meth like a rapid treatment used for herion addicts?
I am looking for the type of treatment that like a rapid detox for hereon users, this treatment involves clinic visits where you go in and they hook you up to something that cleans out your system thus taking away the toxins and also eliminates the cravings, the falling asleep effects, etc…

I am looking for health insurance that covers mental health and drug treatment. Any specific suggestions?

Question by need-drug-treatment: I am looking for health insurance that covers mental health and drug treatment. Any specific suggestions?
Can anyone recommend an insurance plan that they’ve used to obtain quality drug treatment? I am really trying to get in to one of the Narconon facilities but any drug treatment that covers the full spectrum (not just the drug use, but the emotional or other reasons that cause addicts) would work. Anything we can make financial arrangements for. Everything we can find is free and hasn’t worked or ,000+ and we can’t afford even with loans etc. So any resources regarding insurance would be very helpful. Thanks
