Common Questions and Answers about Alcohol rehab places

rehab

Avatar f tn Well I leave Thursdays to do an inpatient detox and rehab. After several surgeries I became dependent on oxycodone 15mg 5xday. When I first realized I was addicted I tried to ct and ended up passing out due to my Bp dropping. Then I decided to taper but my dr stopped that as well because they said I needed to have a 3rd back surgery even tho my last one was in April. I'm not walking correctly, kinda hunched over.
Avatar f tn i have been in an out of at least 40 different rehabs..some for alcohol..some for pills...i find them all pretty much the same as far as noone has a private room..there are usually 2 to a room..there are never any tv's in your room unless you go to beverly hills...there is usually one tv in the lounge for everybody and the time is limited to when you can watch it..usually only at night,after classes.about 8 pm.. everyone wants to be left alone when they detox..
Avatar f tn I'm researching places in Oregon to recovery from drug and alcohol abuse. They seem to be running around $25,000. But I found one that only costs $5,500. That would be great because my insurance doesn't cover this. I will pay out of pocket. Does anyone know if it's possible to have a 30 day treatment only cost $5,500? Will it be scary/ghetto? Can anyone tell me how much their rehab cost. And does anyone have suggestions for places in Oregon?
Avatar f tn That is 1) We admitted we were powerless over alcohol, and that our lives have become unmanageable. So many people get through the detox, at home (which can be dangerous and is often done though a medically supervised detox).It's like it's all or nothing. Those that don't have the opportunity to go to a residential / outpatient Rehab Facility do not instead go to an Addictions Therapist and use them for the therapy that is many times necessary to quit an addictive substance.
Avatar n tn Detoxing off of alcohol cold turkey can be very dangerous if the person has developed a profound dependance on alcohol. There can be very very serious, even life-threatening withdrawl symptoms. If he's at the point where he's puking from withdrawl it may not be safe for him to detox on his own. I would seriously SERIOUSLY consider having him detox in a hospital or rehab center. Not only will they treat his physical state so he can detox safely, they'll help treat his alcoholism.
317822 tn?1223241475 Detox gets you off the drugs safely, and a little of what rehab does. Rehab deals with learning about your addiction and how to live life without drugs. Once you are done with detox, they will help set you up on some continuing aftercare activities. Like an inpatient rehab, or outpatient rehab, a psychiatrist to follow your meds etc. that kind stuff. Hope this helps?

Avatar f tn From what I've read here and other places alcohol is alcohol and no matter what form it can be just as bad. I guess it goes down to the amount of alcohol proof in the drink. If you're drinking enough beers to equal the amount in wine, you'd still be getting the same amount, probably with added carbs...It would be equally as damaging. I'm sure people on this forum who have experiance can give you more advice and support.
Avatar m tn Addictions are progressive, and alcohol can produce an addiction more stubborn than heroin--ask any rehab counselor! Proceed with caution here....better yet- learn to deal with your own feelings without the need for drugs!
Avatar f tn Ur being really strong and for not going to ur dads for a couple is great.I dont do NA myself either.I cant afford expensive therapy etc but I found a place that goes on a sliding scale(Im a stay at home mom so we have1income).I c an addiction specialist&a therapist every week.Its actually a mental health facility&a very well knlwn rehab center(didnt go to rehab there but Im lucky to get to use some the the services and can afford it).Check around for something like that in ur area.
Avatar n tn I was in rehab for the first time in March. Was only there for 2 weeks because I found out I was pregnant about a week into treatment. They tested me when I got there but the results didn't come back until 7 days into treatment. I was already out of detox. So I chose to stay clean and not get back on anything. They wanted to put me back on methadone which is what they used to wean me off the oxy contin.
Avatar m tn I know lithium intensifies with alcohol but know after not drinking for two weeks my hands are still shaking. Is it the combination of lithium and alcohol and the alcohol that is causing this? I plan to stop drinking and feel I have no problem doing that but how do I stop my hands from shaking?

594255 tn?1219163564 Hi, Was sober almost three years until last Feb. 3, 2008. All kinds of bad things went wrong on Feb. 2, 2008. I bought a half-gallon of rum, and started again. I did stop drinking again after a few weeks for about a month. I went back to meetings. Been unemployed three and a half years, and was turned down for a very good job. Guess what? I've been drinking since! I have no way to pay for rehab, so I have to go it alone.
Avatar f tn Alcohol and ANY medications is bad. Alcohol puts stress on all your organs and primarily your liver and kidneys...most medications are cleared through either your liver or your kidneys. Bad mix. You probably need to go to a Detox facility where you can be monitored and given the appropriate meds to help you get off the alcohol.
1562233 tn?1295056292 got a herniated disc n ended up on pain meds for a whole year... ended up in rehab to get off pain meds...stayed clean for almost 3 yrs... then everything started creeping back into my life starting w alcohol...then pot then pills... so day 5 w no pills but like 90 days off the rest... opioids are a bi*** to detox from though... the fatigue and mood swings are killing me..
Avatar n tn After you detox and you no longer have insurance benefits for any rehab, what do you do? My grandson just checked into a detox facility but cannot return to his home. He is detoxing from oxy, valium, alcohol and was on a binge after 10 weeks clean. I dont know what to do to help him without enabling him..any suggestions? He is 18 last month so we dont get any info from detox facility.
Avatar m tn I do not believe that taking him to a rehab facility would mean he would get in trouble at all. I am currently in an outpatient rehab, and I have told them some terrible things that I did to get my DOC (drug of choice), but they did not tell on me to anyone. I don't think any rehabs do that. It is my understanding that outpatient rehabs are more affordable than inpatient rehabs. I have just recently been told about and am researching rehab scholarships.
Avatar f tn Help..I'm on day 2 from going cold turkey from heavy alcohol abuse. How long will the anxiosness n sweats last?
Avatar f tn Getting clean is the easy part...staying clean is the hard part! I believe rehab is about learning how to live your life clean and sober. I think rehab will consist of therapy/counselling, group therapy, NA mtgs.,learning how drugs affect the body and mind, changes you need to make in life to stay clean(people, places, and things)...anyway...something along this line..i am just guessing, but that's what rehab for alcohol consisted of when i went for 30 days.... anyway...keep psoting...
Avatar m tn Im not to familiar with the process of what they do but rehab couns. talked about it in grp this week with a guy that is in our grp for drinking problems. So before you quit cold turkey i urge you to talk to someone first. Dont get me wrong im not telling you to keep drinking and say eff it but alcohol as serious serious effects on your liver and can send you into liver failure and like i said heart failure.
Avatar n tn My 18 yr old granddaughter has been arrested for calling her boyfriend who had a restraining order against her. She also has pending, stealing cigarettes, verbal abuse to a nurse, breaking a car window in an argument with someone & we did not post bail & would like to get power of attorney & see if we can have her put in a rehab. She has been on a downward spiral for at least 4 years. We know she drinks & are pretty sure that she takes various drugs. What can we do?
Avatar m tn I had to haul him out of there last week to Mayo (Phoenix) ER to get cipro and an albumin IV, as well as a referral upstairs to Hepatology. He returned to rehab for his bed and three squares. Is there a more aggressive/proactive facility he should be in to monitor/tap his ascites and watch out for SBP?
Avatar m tn is there an online doctor that can give u the rx...i know the protocol to get through this but i know my physician will want to send me to rehab...i cant do rehab right now....
