Help To You

I had to attend a DWI screening at a drug and alcohol center for an evaluation ordered by the DMV of NY to get my license back, I told them the truth that I hadn’t had a drink in more than a year or done drugs in over 2 years they charged me $200 bucks then told me after 15 minutes of yes and no questions that I needed at 12 week program. That sounds sketchy to me!!! it seems like they just want your money Read more

get your associates degree in drug/alchol counseling and then apply. You will have to submit to a background/fingerprint test, and usually a UA test as well. (a lot of community colleges offer that certificate and they are cheeap too!)
good luck! Read more

Intense therapy!
For a person with alcoholism it may be excruciating. They are trying to recover from addiction and the cravings are still there. So ther is a lot of discomfort for them.
Generally their daily routine is much the same as yours in the sense of food intakes and daily tasks of housework and self image care.
They have to attend meetings and undertake to examine their reasons for taking alcohol in such excess.
The steps of recovery for an alcoholic are available from any local AA center and are spiritual in their approach rather than religious. This spiritual approach is not for all and many leave the program as a result. But amazingly these same people at a later date will return and often embrace the program with greater fervor in order to get their life back in some semblance of order.
Some may receive medication to help lessen the effects of withdrawal, some may undergo other methods. But the aim is always towards avoidance of alcohol in the future.
Looking after alcoholics is much easier than doing the same for those who are addicted to drugs. I have looked after both and so I can say this from experience. Alcoholics have mostlyu experienced some quality of life, employment, marriage, children and some social standing within the community before they vrashed. So there is an age bracket here where some things have been experiened as a normal part of growing up.
With those addicted to drugs, many of them have not achieved much in life and are too young to remember the good things, or times prior to addiction. This group has a greater problem plugging back into a society that they wer once an integral and participatinf part of. Some may be exceptions like pop stars and film stars, but their life has often been a sort of fantasy trip rather than a reality in quality life. Read more

Hi, I’m looking for a really excellent treatment center in Oklahoma. My fiance is an alcoholic. I love him dearly and really want to help him. I am looking for something that is no nonsense, and possibly offers a payment assistance program. I would also like to find somewhere that only certain people can visit him. A lot of his family and friends supply his alcohol even though they know it is killing him. He goes into shakes and all that. He’s pretty bad, but wants to quit. I know that I love him very much, and our future depends on this. I see a beautiful man that is wasting away. He understands that he has to go through a lifestyle change, and I am willing to be at his side through all the good and the bad. Read more

For my wife. I’d like to find one that 1) Gets results, 2) Is a clean, non-depressing environment, 3) Is located somewhere in the Colorado/Arizona/NM/Texas area and 4) Deals with the “whole body/mind” including a fitness regime. I’ve been searching the internet – but it is tough to sift through the options.
Many, many thanks!!! Read more
