Answer by stick man
I’m on the kansas version Medicaid. I have never used it though. Does his booklet that came with Medi-cal list the drug treatment programs? Or could his social security worker tell you who would take him for rehab? In the KS book there was a short list of who would treat drug/alcohol abuse.

My cousin, who lives with us, has gotten herself into bad company. She’s now a heroin addict and we want to get her treated. We want to know more about buprenorphine, as we have heard that this is a more appealing treatment than methadone is. How can we find drug rehabs that are administering buprenorphine treatments to patients?

Does Life Ever Get Better?

Question by melinda: Does life ever get better?
hi, I’m recovering from a drug addiction about a little over two weeks clean at the moment and I’m doing it on my own. And I don’t feel life is worth living, I mean does it ever get better? I feel like I’m in a black hole and the light is getting further and further out of reach. Some shit happened in my past that I couldn’t handle so I OD’d a little over 2 years ago and ended up in the hospital and after that I got hooked on drugs. Does anyone have any experience with what I’m going through??? I just want to be happy again and I’m scared. Im 21 years old.

Answer by Phil
In my state, free or near-free rehab programs are funded through the Medicaid program. How that works exactly may vary by state. Try checking with your states Dept. of Mental Health (or equivalent) — drug and alcohol abuse are considered mental health issues.

Does Anyone Know of a Good Residental Drug Rehab Center Either in the U.S. or Canada?

Question by SHELTIELUVER: Does anyone know of a good residental drug rehab center either in the U.S. or Canada?
Have you gone to one or had a family member or friend that has? I’m looking for a place that is reasonably priced. I can only pay maybe $ 13,000 at the most for 30 days unless they offer financial assistance. I have no insurance. I want to go somewhere that is in a peaceful setting, has a kind and educated staff, and has a gym so I can start getting myself back into shape and taking care of my body. I really want to get help. Have you heard of Clearhaven or Top of the World in Canada? Or the Meadows in Arizona? Help! There are just so many places.
