My father Inlaw has been using drugs for 35 years now and my husband and I have found Meth in his garage and meth pipes also. My sister Inlaw wants all of us to get together and plan and Intervention on him. But im worried about doing it right. What should we say and how do we begin? We just want him to get help and to go rehab or detox willingly. Please give me good advice so that I can be helpful. Thanks alot!!!

how addicted do you have to be to go to a rehab? does it have to be the type of addiction where you have to detox and go through withdrawal?
cause my friends dad went to rehab cause you use to take sedatives or painkillers(one or the other) every day. but not frequently enough to get physicaly dependent on one substance so he would alternate throughout the week. and he ended up living at a rehab center for about 3 months.
also what can you do and eat at rehab? and what are living conditions like?
BTW would a rehab program help you find a proper living situation outside of rehab as well as help you find a job?

I’ve heard my parents talking to each other about this. It seems as if one of my cousins will go through this sometime soon. I just got curious, since I’ve always heard of drug rehabs and treatment centers, but this is the first time I’ve heard of detox.

Okay, i have been with my b/f now for 5 years, we have a 4 yr daughter and I am pregnant now. He has some issues with drugs and I always stood by him because he always would clean up for a little bit and the longest was for about a year. I love him so much and always would try to help him. I have a good job and have my own home,you would never think that i would fall for someone like this, if you knew me personally. Well just recently he was in a rehab center for 3 days to detox, it seemed like nothing new. Well come to find out he had sex with a girl in there 2 times while he was in there??? I just don’t think I can go on, I keep picturing this in my mind . He says he sorry and I told him to leave I will do this on my own, but i don’t think he thinks I’m serious. I just lost my pop which meant the world to me and now this??? I just am for a lost for words. My family keeps telling me to let him go, i deserve better. But i don’t know why i keep on going back to him??? I tired so many time, I just don’t think I can try anymore after this. I think he never really loved me to do something like this to his family???

The story: Back when I was 15, I was put on both Klonopin AND Xanax by two different docs for an anxiety disorder I never even had (I ended up being diagnosed with BPD, hence the anxiety issues) They told me to take dosage X every day, at X time, so I did as I was told. And I was never told to stop taking them, so I didn’t. But I had no idea that a daily dose of these types of pills could become so severely addictive, so when I eventually tried to get off them, everything turned into a nightmare. I have since found a doc I have stuck with for 7 years and have tried SO many times with her help to wean myself off these terrible pills as slow as possible but because I have BPD, the emotional side effects always became too intense for me to bear alone. She has now suggested that I may need inpatient detox, so that I would have supervised care while trying to get off these benzos, so my question may sound very silly but, would a drug rehab center even admit me if I don’t abuse the pills?

drug addicted people have drug rehab places to go to when they need help… is there any thing I can do to try to have people in the higher political offices help other offenders have a safe place to go to help themselves before they end up in trouble? Any suggestions on how to go about this?

I have a friend that is addicted to a painkiller. If she commits herself to a rehab center, can she lose her license? She has went to a detoxing center where they flushed her system out. She only was in there for 4 days. They are pressuring her to go into a 30 day program where she will be in a rehab center. She doesn’t want to lose her nurses license, so she is refusing to go. I know that if she doesn’t go, she will start abusing again.

I took 70 gel cap robitussin pills, and drank 12 ounces of robitussin DM within 2 days. I was so tripped so hard, that i thought i died. i’ve never been so sure about anything before in my life.
I don’t want to get into detail, but it helped me get really close to God. I’ve never been happier in my entire life. I don’t need to take anti-psychotics anymore. I’ll never do drugs again. What’s the answer
