Addiction rehab help
Common Questions and Answers about Addiction rehab help
rehab
t either before, but do now. Addiction *****, but we can break this cycle. There is help out there and rehab is not the only option. Have you ever thought about trying N/A or any other aftercare to stay clean.
I think the fact you have told people and admitted your problem is a HUGE step and should be very proud of yourself for that. Keeping it a secret keeps us sick. Stick around this is a great support group. Look in the top right of this page.
I needed to be there and needed the help, badly.
I had lost almost everything when I entered that rehab and to leave early was the wrong choice. I eventually relapsed again about a month ago. This time to methadone. I am scared, have been thrown out of my home and am losing both my girls. Pregant, no home and need to get back into treatment asap. My question is, does anyone know what the process would be being as I am pregnant?
So many of us have lost so much through our addictions and trying to stop can be so frightening and lonely. But you are not alone. There are a lot of people here who have been where you are and we can help you through this. You don't need to go to rehab. You can cut down on your pills and then stop. It seems awful at first but then you will start to feel better and better.
Oh wow I can't imagine going back to everything after rehab. Addiction is a tricky thing, and you may find yourself thinking it's ok to do it one more time. Is there anyway the rehab could hook you up with a half way house? The longer you can stay in rehab the better. Addiction is more than just physical pain. It's also mental and spirtual. Give yourself time to heal. All the best. Please keep posting!
I do not know what TALWIN is...do you have any more information? Is it an opiate? I was on opiates and detoxed at home going cold turkey. Welcome to this site and we are here to support you. Please provide any additional info about dosage you are on...
I'm not proud to say that I'm addicted to pain pills. And I want to quit. I can't afford rehab. I'm going to start today. I already know that the pain will start what I don't know is how long it will last. I'm taking 4 to 6 percocets a day. Can someone answer this question & help me to get through this?
will i be not so anxious to the point of not coping? i am comin g out of my skin. i cant take it. will rehab help? or will i be in a strange room with strange people going thru the same exact thing?
i cant do this alone i just cant... i need help im just not sure what i need.... i am willing and able to go for inpatient treatment. thats the only think that i will do i think i need it at this point.....i just dont know where to start....
Thanks for the quick response. After 8 years of addiction i am tired. I have done everything I can to help her. I cant make her go again to rehab if she wont go. As i have heard they must hit rock bottom but i fear rock bottom here will be a stroke or heart attack. . I am tired of policing her and watching her every move. to make matters worse she is bipolar. I have told her phsychiatrist and all he did was tell her that is bad. no more.
I have realized that he is an addict and screaming is not going to help him. This is a different situation than most because I have pills too. How should I be handeling him. He does have legitimate pain that's why the doctor did not take him off completely. But I am making half of every week miserable for both of us. He is a great husband in every other way. Any sujestions would be appreciated.
Thank you.
Are you addicted or just dependent? It will work well for addiction, but the rehab would be a waste of money for a dependency. For instance, my Mom had a Klonopin dependency. She tried to go to the same rehab I went to, but was turned away and told to see an addictionologist. He weened her down and she's never had a problem. I however was an addict, and the detox/rehab worked well for me. The induction process at the rehab should tell you whether detox or detox/rehab is warranted.
My daughter is in rehab for pills addiction. I will be able to visit her in another month. She says she will be there for a total of 6 months. She has no money, no belongings, nothing. All was lost when she was forced to go to rehab. My question is: What can I expect when she is released? She says she will have to live on the streets if I don't help her. I tried to help her by paying her rent and giving her spending money but she spent it all on drugs was was evicted.
i'm thankful i have a strong wife to help me help myself b/c i figured up how much money i've spent tha last 4 years.
And I believe you are right. I understand addiction very well, have been through rehab, and i have been clean, but i went back to the lifestyle. I convinced myself that I truly needed the medications for anxiety and whatnot, of course us addicts will make up any excuse if we want our drugs.
I guess the question I need to answer is, why did I go back to that lifestyle and where do I go from here. When I went to rehab i went CT off Lortab, Klonopin, Temezepam, Triazolam, and Tramadol.
sometimes they need to hit bottom before they acknowledge their addiction or ask for help. i sent my son to a inpatient rehab. when he was 17. he went kicking and screaming and said he hated me and never wanted to see me again. he is now 25 and has been clean for 7 years. he thanks me for saving his life. he tells me because of my prayers, the LORD and me sending him away that he is still alive or not in jail. he has had quite a few friends die and some that are also in jail.
I would start by telling him/her about her addiction so that s/he can refer her to an inpatient rehab center. When she is done with rehab, she can go to Narcotics Anon meetings, and see/do whatever else they recommend at the rehab center.
Now, there are doctors that specialize in addiction and pain management, but it really seems like she needs to get into rehab...fast.
Hopefully others with more experience will chime in.
I am going to detox next week for norco/vicodin addiction. I dont want to go but know I must. I have no idea what to expect. I take 30-50 pills a day, part of me does not want stop but I must I just want to also get my mind to want to stop and get better.
i am a skateboarder (i know not all skateboarders do drugs and drink but most of them do) so i am around it every day, not to mention my family. ive just seen how easily addiction can screw up peoples lives and i wanna help fight it. people seem to open up to me a lot and i love it, so i figure why not try rehab, where it will be a challenge to get people to open up and want to get better.
