How Can I Help My Cousin Find a Drug Rehab in Altoona, Pennsylvania?
Question by dolores t: How can I help my cousin find a drug rehab in Altoona, Pennsylvania?
I promised my cousin that I would help him find a drug rehab since I was the one who tried so hard and was incessantly persuading him to get himself treated. I really want to help out, but I don’t know what to do. Any suggestions, please?

I live in Florida currently. Where should I go to start over? I want to start over?
IVe had suicidal thoughts for a week now. I tried seeking help but I now think that it’s pointless. I just want to take my stuff up and leave to somewhere. I want to leave tonight. I think that the only way to escape these thoughts is start over. Where should I go? Has anyone done anything like this? I don’t plan on talking to anyone anymore. I want to just be alone. Please where would the best place to go be and what should I do? Please don’t say go and talk to someone because I honestly can’t be helped at this point. Please only things related to where I should go and what to do.
