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

Chronic Pain and Drug Addiction…please Help.?

Question by Scooter: Chronic pain and drug addiction…please help.?
I have a friend whose son takes medication for a legitimate chronic pain. He is also, unfortunately addicited to several illicit drugs, and was already a heavy drinker when he was injured. Does anyone know of a treatment facility geared to handle drug addicition and pain management. Everything here has failed. The family doctor is concerned for his life.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
The pain medication is prescribed by a doctor and is absolutely neccessary. He is under the care of competant pain management. The problem is most treatment facilities are only set up to get the drugs out of you. They aren’t set up to try and determine which ones need to really stay in you. we need advanced drug and alchohol treatment combined with pain management.

Are Drug Abusers Being Taken Care of Even After They Finish the Treatment Program?

Question by Tommy: Are drug abusers being taken care of even after they finish the treatment program?
I’m just curious about how things are after life in rehab. See, my friend Jack is about to finish his ten-week treatment program for his addiction with cocaine. I’m really happy to hear the news from his parents that he’s doing just fine. I just want to know if the treatment programs are extended after he leaves the rehab. I mean, do they have programs or activities that help drug abusers to continue with the healing process? I just want my friend to recover from his addiction for good.

I know that programs like these are really costly. What about those people who really want to change but just can’t stop because of withdrawal symptoms and can’t afford to have themselves rehabilitated at treatment centers? Is there a solution to this problem?
