Thinking outside the Box about Drug Rehab!
Author: admin
There are solutions to every problem. We may not like the solution, but they are there. Drug rehab will require us to come up with these solutions. We all have an idea of how we would like things to work out. We want it all. In drug rehab most people would like a short treatment period of 1 month or less. They want private counselling one to one every day. They would like private rooms. No waiting lists. They want lots of varied activities and facilities, on a large beautiful piece of land. For this wish list, they would like somebody else to pay for it.
I would like this scenario as well. Dealing with finances is always difficult. Having someone on the phone asking for free drug rehab is always sad. Hearing the desperation in their voice is not the high point in anyone’s day. So we need more creative solutions. Sometimes we may have to all lower our expectations a little bit. Things, like counselling, maybe we can get by in groups of 2 or 3 for focused counselling, but not really individual counselling. More people sharing rooms is another obvious choice.
Liability is another area. Informed consent with an acceptance of self liability. Most programs could charge less if they were sure they could not be sued. Obviously if you are spending a significant sum to go to a rehab this would be silly. If you are attending a place that is desperately doing everything possible to keep the cost minimal, this makes sense.
The there is the most obvious cost effective choice. Teach our kids how to cope with stress, anxiety, fear and anger in school. Teach life skills in school. Teach happiness in school. A lot of drug use is about self medication for these issues. School are way cheaper to run than drug rehab centers.
