Answer by arlyn w
Drug addiction treatments cost much because a lot of factors are involved when treating a patient. Medication and payment for counseling and therapy costs much. But studies have shown that a full year of methadone maintenance treatment would cost a lot less than a year of imprisonment. Besides, this is someone’s life that’s on the line. What’s a thousand dollars compared to leading a sober, happy, addiction-free life?
My 19 Year Old Son Is a Heroine Addict While I’m Still Paying Child Support NJ?
Question by Kimoko: My 19 year old son is a heroine addict while I’m still paying child support NJ?
My 19 year old son is a heroine addict while I’m still paying child support . I don’t have custody of my child, but i pay child support for him to begin community college. Obviously, he can’t continue school under his conditions. So does anyone know if there is a way for me to legally stop paying child support in order to have money to help my child get into a good rehab center. The amount of child support i’m paying prohibits me from fully supporting my son. Is there anyway i can bring his heroine addiction to court for a reason to stop paying child support.I live in NJ.
Please refrain from complaining about the child support cutoff being at age eighteen in your state. It is simply not the same case in NJ.
I was never married to the mother of my son, so there were no divorce decree’s to look upon.
My son needs help which he can find at a rehabilitation center, and he’s wasting time ” going to college.” ( he’s only attended twice.)
What Treatment Center?
Question by jadehope: What treatment center?
hi I’m a 19 year old female who has been secretly suffering from anorexia and bulimia for about 4 years. I have decided it’s time to tell my parents and receive treatment but I don’t know which treatment center is right for me. I know a lot of treatment centers also deal with other mental illnesses like bipolar disorder among others and also addiction to drugs and alcohol. however I do not abuse or even use drugs or alcohol and the only mental illness I have is anorexia and bulimia. I want to make sure im picking the right treatment center for me. does anyone have any suggestions? by the way I live in new York so anything in that area would be more convient, but I’m not opposed to going out of state. and I’m also looking for an inpatient program.
Is Wellness Housing at College for People That Are “Straight Edge” or for People That Have Had Addictions?
Question by : Is wellness housing at college for people that are “straight edge” or for people that have had addictions?
I have had an addiction and an eating disorder so I think I want to live in Boston University’s “wellness house”. I don’t want to be around people that are like, total nerds and are like, “OMG drinking and drugs are so bad!!!” I just want to be around people who have been through the same stuff as me and can understand how hard it is to stay sober. I want a supportive community, you know?

Drug Rehab Options for Unemployed and No Income Addicts?
Question by m l: Drug rehab options for unemployed and no income addicts?
One of my friends since childhood is addicted to numerous substances and careening down a path of self destruction and co-dependence with an abusive man. I’ve suggested rehab to deal with her addictions and she seemed slightly receptive. However she cited lack of money as her main reason for not going to a rehab. She is 26, unemployed (she recently lost a job she had for only 2 weeks due to use), unmarried and located in MS. Her mother provides her with some funds to live on.
I have located some sites via searching but the information I’ve come across seems vague or phishy or not applicable to the state she resides in.
Thank you in advance.
Clarification: I need FREE assistance program information. I’m aware someone else could pay for it but there is no one in her life that can afford it (e.g. myself) or would be willing to (i.e. her family). Her parents have ample income but are not willing to help her. They are more or less cutting her off without first attempting to get her into treatment.

Question by nikki_3919: Can anyone give me info on the band To Write Love on Her Arms?
I’ve recently heard of this band and looked into their myspace, but only briefly. I wanna know what type of music they play, (are they a Christian band? I know they are Christians…) what are their songs about and where would I be able to sample some of their music online (legally)?
Whoops! My bad. I was under the impression it was a band. Sorry! 😛 Thanks anyway!
