[QUOTE="AmericanGirl, post: 558314"] Stallin, My son dropped two of his classes the first week in March. The other two were online. He contacted the profs, explained he was headed for rehab and received incompletes. I can tell you that waiting, for him, would have been a HUGE MISTAKE. The first boost helped but also left him still cocky...he thought he was working a good program. He relapsed in July for 5 days which put him into a position to learn he wasn't doing what he needed to do. Since then, he has consistently improved. The best rehab is the one which works for you. A good friend sent his father to Willingway in Georgia (the "Betty Ford" of the South). It failed. I'm certain many peopl4e would tell you it was an excellent program. It all depends on what you put into it as long as the program is sound. Most good ones have a detox, intensive inpatient, intensive outpatient, and continuing care. Your insurance company will likely have someone on staff who can help you determine what you qualify for and what program might be best. A local Al-anon program might also be a great resource for your parents. These people have watched different programs over the years and may have suggestions and support. Back to school...if you have dropped al but one and you aren't doing well in it....seems to me that you don't have much to lose by going to rehab now. GOOD LUCK! [/QUOTE]
