Dude, I am trying to help. I've been there.

So, you spend the money for 4-5 days in detox, she get's released, stays clean for a bit, then she shoots up, snorts, smokes, or whatever again, and where are you? Exactly where you are today.

That's the way opiate addiction works. I take it this isn't the first time you've seen this pattern, right?

What is your goal with going just detox?

yeah i realize she won't get "cured" in a week and that her sobriety will be a daily commitment for the rest of her life etc..

i also realize that often the only solution for chronic relapsers is long term inpatient treatment.

my immediate goal is to buy myself some time until i can find a longer term solution. her family has written her off (for now), but if i am able to help her at least get headed in the right direction, then maybe they will get re-involved. mapping out her lifetime sobriety seems a bit ambitious for a friday afternoon.

I hear ya. Re-reading your prior post, I see she's done the rehab thing before, so you know the drill.

There is no point in true rehab until SHE wants it, and means it. It sounds to me like you're just trying get her detoxed now before she kills herself. This is certainly admirable, in my opinion.

I wish you the best. You've got a very tough road ahead of you.

A lot of rehab places don't have a detox center, so her options will be a LOT wider once she's detoxed.


Sorry I can't help with placement.
Best of luck.

off-topic, but I'm curious what your relationship with this girl is that you're the one who is responsible for her.

[/ QUOTE ]Wondering this too, though you seem to be a very considerate guy from what I've read from/about you.
