How Can I Get Treatment for Drug Dependency?

Question by Big Bob: How can I get treatment for drug dependency?
Hi. I was just weighing my options for how to deal with my drug problem. I work random 1st and 2nd shifts so inpatient rehab is out of the question, and because of the 1st and 2nd shift switching I couldn’t make every intensive outpatient meeting. I am not quite sure how to handle this. It is very hard for me to just stop using drugs by myself. I would probably go to rehab but I just started this new job I went to school for. Is there any other ways I can get help?

Where Can I Look Up Drug Rehab Programs in Virginia?

Question by capoeirakid: Where can I look up drug rehab programs in Virginia?
Okay, so my mom and her friend are starting a lfe coaching business. I’m going to help them by finding programs such as rehabs, support groups, charities, etc. for their clients. Right now, I’m helping them look for a rehab for this one kid who we think might potentially become a client and he’s addicted to marijuana. He’s looking for a rehab program that can help him. In order for the place to be able to help him, the place needs to be something like this:
1. He’s 17, so it needs to be a rehab for kids or kids and adults.
2. He has a felony charge and they’re appealing the charge, but they can’t do anything more about that until a few months from now, so it needs to accept kids with felony charges.
3. Preferably, it should be a live-in rehab.
4. A place with a lot of rules and structure would be best for this kid.
5. It would be best if the rehab is in or near Northern Virginia.
All of this is based on info my mom gave me about the kid. Don’t worry, I don’t know his name or anything like that. I was hoping that there’s a website or something where I can look up rehab programs by key words or something like that. Also, if you know of a rehab that will be good for him, please tell me. Thanks!
To buds: Do you know if Crosby Centers has a location in/near NoVa?
Does Crosby Centers accept people with felony charges?
Does Crosby Centers accept kids?
I looked for this info on the website, but I couldn’t find it.
Thanks!

Do You Know Any Good Drugs/alcohol Rehabilitation Centres in Southern England?

Question by Niraj G: Do you know any good drugs/alcohol rehabilitation centres in Southern England?

Best answer:

Answer by Arch Teryx
Antibuse is a drug that interferes with the body’s ability to metabolize alcohol. I think it inhibits alcohol dehydrogenase. A few mouthfuls of alcohol and you’ll be wretching your guts out.
Naltrxone is another drug that decreases the urge to have subsequent drinks. Both remedies are recommended to be used in conjunction with a support group.

Question by fake_blonde: Is there an online support group for people with a family member that is struggling with drug addiction?
I have a loved one with a substance abuse problem and it has taken its toll on me emotionally over the years. I was wondering if there was a support group for me so that I can talk with others that are facing the same problems. I know there are so many people out there dealing with this too, but I feel alone in the battle.

Answer by noitall
are you sure? I suggest you first go to work for an established facility and see what they deal with every day before making this decision. You’re dealing with people with serious personal problems, many of whom don’t really want to get rehabbed (they’re putting in time due to a court order or other pressure from people who think it will make them turn around). The cost of their rehab is covered either by their families or by insurance companies or by the state mental health system.
