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.

What Do You Do if Youre in a Treatment Center and They Wont Let You Leave.?
Question by danie rae: what do you do if youre in a treatment center and they wont let you leave.?
my brothers girlfriend is in az in an eating disorder center and they are lying to her telling her that her family isnt trying to help her and they need to keep her and she cant leave and theyre medicating her. how do we help her from home in idaho?
ok no she is of age and has been doing exceptionally well in the program until the facility found out that her church had given them 20,000 to help her she was doing well enough to leave her parents are on the same page as us this question is coming from all of us
and another thing they have her on trazadone and she went there voluntarily to fix her problems
also we talked to an eating disorder helpline who said that they should not be medicatiing her, that the goal is to get her off of all the meds and help her deal with the issue herself. she has completed the program with 100 percent in everything coming from her and the staff once the staff fund out they had another 20,000 towards her they suddenly found all these reasons to keep her
appearantly i need more details she went because she wanted to her parents were against it at first she is 20 years old and has been there for a month now
on top of all of that if she wanted to leave she would need her id which the facility has locked up with her personal belongings and isnt willing to return to her she is in az and home is id. so even if she grew the balls to just walk out the facility has her plane ticket and id
Where Can I Find Statistics About Drug Addiction in the United States?

Answer by grundlegoat
thats kind of tricky because a lot of addicts don’t think they are addicts because they have prescriptions, don’t know they have a problem, or just aren’t ready to admit they have a problem.

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.
Drug Addicts or Former Drug Addicts, Please Help.?
Question by ***: Drug addicts or former drug addicts, please help.?
My husband is picking small fights with me and our 9yr old. He’s been using cocaine on and off for 3 yrs. For the most part when he hasn’t been using he has either been locked up in a rehab or doing jail time. What I’m trying to understand is if drug users look for any excuse to use and why? What do I say to him during these situations where he acts irrational and threatens to go use? I’m almost 6 months pregnant and need a drug free environment for my family. Any suggestions on how to cope, understand, or approach this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks- Lauren
