Question by celia w: My friend lives in Milltown, New Jersey, and is asking for my help in finding addiction treatment centers.?
I really want to help him. This is for his project and he says he’s close to failing the subject. His mom is sick and his dad has run away and he’s juggling school along with work, so I really want to help him even if it’s just by finding some resources that he can look into.

Question by steeleskillz: What to do with a friend who has several alcoholism?
A very good friend of mine is an alcoholic (she’s 26 years old). She has been for as long as i’ve known her and she’s been to rehab, lived in halfway houses, she’s been arrested for 2 DUI’s (this was before I knew her). Recently, the 2 year romantic relationship she was in dissolved (they are living together). This was mostly becauses of the alcoholism – she can go into rages when she drinks and has no real quality of life outside of bars/drinking. She also works in a bar.
The part where I come in (except that I desperately have wanted to help her for years and have extended support) is that now she’s accusing me having an affair with her ex-significant other. Although I am hurt, more importantly I’m scared of what these accusations represent – she’s totally paranoid (she’s shown signs of it in the past). I’m afraid years of heavy drinking have left with a mental disorder. I know I can’t commit her – or force her to get help… But I know she’ll die if she doesn’t. Any advice?
Well, it’s complicated… I am in the mental health field, and I know you can’t get help for someone against their will – she’s not NECESSARILY suicidal or homocidal, but I’d hate to see what happens if she takes a wrong turn. I guess I just wanted some support.

Seek help from a proper doctor. Yahoo answers is not a place for this as your friend seems to be on a very wrong path.

I hope all goes well with her.

Question by ANNE D: How will I find the right drug rehab for my best friend in Boerne, Texas?
He told me that he’s been a drug dependent for already two years. I asked him if he’s willing to enter a rehab and he said yes. Now, the only problem is how I can find one. Please help.

You don’t have to worry too much. Finding one is relatively easy. Since your friend is willing to enter a drug rehab, I think the best way you can do is to click on the links below. You will find useful information regarding your friend’s problem. The second link, in particular, will lead to a drug rehab located in your place. Good luck!

I want to help her but as I have little to no experience with drugs other than pot I am not sure what to do to help. I have offered her a place to stay for free as long as she is clean. I live 45 km from town and there is no bus service so she will be relying on me for transportation but how can I be sure she is staying of the crap and how can I help her through the detox?

She just won’t budge. I already tried talking to her, but when she starts telling me that heroin makes her happy, I just don’t know what to say next. She’s so stubborn. I wish I knew what to say to her to make her change her mind. Can someone please give me suggestions? I really want to help her.

She’s so stubborn. She won’t budge. She says heroin makes her happy and that I’m not a real friend because I’m trying to take away what makes her happy. What do I do? I don’t know what to say to her, but I don’t want to just give up and let her do whatever she wants because I know this is bad for her.

thier loosing everything they have. they say that its hard to quit because they dont feel good for a long time after they try to quit.

She’s bipolar & caffeine REALLY whacks her out. Her docs seem to think she should b able to handle this, but this keeps dragging on. I would like to know of any professionals who can help. Thank you
