Common Questions and Answers about Drug rehab nurse

rehab

Avatar n tn I have been addicted to pain killers for 6+ years. I've decided that enough is enough & I can't continue to live like this anymore. I am 3 days clean & currently going through withdrawls. I can not afford rehab, or have anyone to care for my children if I could afford to go. I don't know if wanting to quit & change my life is enough for me to kick this. My husband knows about my addiction, I went to him for help. He doesn't understand why I can't just stop.
Avatar m tn It would be people coming to you that have gotten in trouble with drug use and you are something like a parole officer but not with the authority, mostly gathering information and helping them out. Has anyone ever been involved in charges against them for drug use? Is this system a big farce and bad trip? Once we are clean should we just stay away from this kind of thing forever? One part of me would really like to help others out very much. And another part says stay the hell away from it.
Avatar f tn Since the last time my daughter was clean and sober for 6wks then her friend came home from rehab and without me knowing they got together and I found needles again I told her she had to move out I could not enable her but she could stay if she really wanted to be clean. She moved out after many very mean tex messages to me (I know it was the drug) 4 wks later she sent me a tex asking me to come get her and take her to hospital because she wanted to go to rehab and be clean.
Avatar f tn i agree you need to go to rehab....it wll help you in court. but, more than that you can come out of rehab clean and continue to stay that way. there is great support here but i agree na meetings are good too. good luck and keep us posted.
Avatar m tn WOW 6 80s a day thats quite a habit...I dont understand if you told them at the drug rehab you shooting them up there would be no question of abuse something dosent sound right here...well there are 2 avenues to take here if you still got a bunch left you could taper off some and get down to a lower dose then jump off and hang on the withdrawals are doable but no fun....plan 2 is just to jump off C/T and bit the bullet you will be sick for a week but you will not dye from it...
Avatar f tn I'm a nurse who went to rehab and I still have my license. I live in Georgia and it might be different in each state. Call the state board of nursing in her state and ask. You can remain anonymous. Is she willing to go to rehab?
Avatar n tn Has anyone every been to rehab for drug addiction? If so...I would like to chat with you about my nephew who had to be taken to rehab after an overdose of Xanax.
1318483 tn?1318347182 Coming to rehab was the best thing that could have happened to me. I truly am thankful for crossing paths with my new pump nurse and grateful for her swiftness in getting me in here. I have physical, occupational and speech therapy every day. This makes for a long day but very much worth it. I see improvement every single day. This hospital has the most caring, compassionate and outgoing staff I have ever seen in my life. You cannot help being optimistic here.
Avatar m tn He was out for 1 hour and passed his drug test.He does not like rehab and to be honest i thought he would have left by now.But he is so determind to be drug free ,im proud of him as i always thought the worst would happen to James .He finds the meetins hard and to open up but i think that will come in time.Frank says its got to come from James and will eventually come. James will be 1 week clean tomorrow.And over the worst of physical w/dsHe still feels agitated when pushed.
Avatar n tn On the Blue Cross side, there is a nurse who should be reviewiewing this case -- a nurse-to-nurse conversation may provide the exception you need to get the rehab. This might be a case of a front-line rep just following procedure. He / she is probably doing their job, but this is not a normal case. I'd have your doc or nurse call the insurance. You may also want to post this over at www.healthharbor.com and see what kind of input you get.
Avatar m tn So, you’re right to look for cheap rehab centers. You don’t have to break into a bank or go broke in the name of getting off drug and alcohol addiction.
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 f tn but it is very do-able without inpatient rehab...i am a nurse and was a hydro user at 100 mgs//average//when i stopped///a nurse with a stressful job and went back to work day 5///2 years ago....
Avatar m tn While at work I met a nurse, We started as friends and eventually started to become more than friends. The other day while at my home We kissed and I fingered her. I had a small sore on the inside of my mouth and NO cuts on my fingers. The kiss was very short but, it was french kissing. She has perfect teeth and I didn't taste any blood in my mouth from kissing her. I was just wondering if I have any risk of catching anything ? PLEASE HELP, my phobia is back.

Avatar f tn I am going crazy i just cant stand to be using anymore but am at a loss as to how i am ever going to do this on my own. I really think i need rehab,detox something of that sort. i live i a small town and dont think we have anything of that sort in our area.
Avatar f tn Hey y'all, I am actually on the plane now off to rehab!!!! I am so scared of detox and leaving my family, but i know deep down inside, this is the right thing to do. I can only pray that i will get through this and come out stronger than ever and continue to seek therapy. This really has been a long dark road for me and i am ready to take charge of my life, i am going into rehab with an open mind and i am going to fight this demon with everything i got in me, and i will WIN!!!!
1510375 tn?1292934881 Hi. My name is Mike. I'm an addict. My drug of choice? Oxycontin. Years of being an addict? 15 years. Years in recovery from addiction? 9 years. Days clean out of 15 years? Zero! Age? 35 years old. Now, I had only given rehab 1 chance in my whole career as a bonafide Master in the art of Drug overuse and serious abuse. I believe it was the new year of 2002. It was a blizzard Winter-scape, at any rate.
Avatar m tn She finally admitted that she was hooked and needed help. We got her into a rehab center to hopefully get off them, so we can save our marriage. It is just as hard on me with her not being here becasue she is my best friend and we had our routine of drinking coffee and talking about anything that we want, and it was so depressing to wake up and not see my best friend laying next to me. I was wondering what it is like in rehab.
Avatar m tn This was an interesting blog posting on the ancient chinese medicine. http://skeptigirl.wordpress.com/category/medical/page/3/ It confirms my thoughts on magical stroke recovery. Here is a clinical trial but I couldn't read it. http://www.clinicalconnection.com/exp/ExpandedPatientViewStudy189961.aspx If this truly worked scientists and survivors would be all over this. Probably good as a placebo or just the normal 6-12 month spontaneous recovery attributed to the drug.
983679 tn?1276833336 If you go into rehab, it may kill your dreams of becoming a nurse. They do a background check and they ask have you ever been to rehab. You can get pass this 3rd day. Theeagle is right your looking to find a easy cure..there is none..just your heart and guts.
