Answer by bmac
Addicts start using in their teens. It’s very rare that an adult starts using drugs only after becoming an adult. A lot of teens stop using when they are getting ready to hit college because they don’t want to get into trouble or have to be tested for a job and have a dirty urine, so they quit and they quit for good. The true addict, though…could care less and will do anything to find a way to continue using…even if it means the loss of a job, home, family and friends.
Are There Low Costs or No Costs Long Term Residential Treatment Centers for Drug and Alcohol Addictions?
Question by john_morlock2001: Are there low costs or no costs long term residential treatment centers for drug and alcohol addictions?
Friends of mine have an adult child who has already been through short term drug and alcohol rehab (2 weeks to 30 days) treatments, only to relapse. He needs longer term treatment to address the psychological problems associated with addiction; but like millions of other Americans he has no insurance.
Is anyone aware of any long term treatment centers that may help him?

I hear about police officers with depression and drug problems (besides the obvious- alcohol).
So how many cops (percentage) are drug abusers and what seems to be their drug of choice?

Separation of church and state and how AA and NA talks about God all throughout their books? For example, the state cannot force you to go to church.

Answer by Gazza
AA and NA does not work for people if they are not willing to change and accept that they have a problem. AA and NA are not for everyone, sometimes people are more willing and receptive to a harm reduction programme instead of a 12 step abstinence programme.

I Have a Cousin in Lahaska, Pennsylvania Who Need Substance Abuse Treatment…?
Question by aryana la: I have a cousin in Lahaska, Pennsylvania who need substance abuse treatment…?
I really want to help her because she has already asked for my help. She knows that she’s got a problem, but she can’t help it anyway. She keeps on buying prescription drugs and gets high. I’m planning on looking for a treatment center for her because I think this is the only way I can help. I don’t know how to find those, though.
