[QUOTE="exhausted, post: 491162, member: 11001"] Oh so sorry! The insurance companies can't get it through their heads that the brain is an organ just like the heart. It needs treatment too and addiction issues are most often part of mental health problems-seldom do you have addiction without some mental health problem. They even have seperate offices to handle this and deny treatment that the APA approves calling it experimental. Yes-I would look for sliding scale place. We found one to give our daughter EMDR-which is approved for PTSD but our new insurance refuses to pay for saying it is experimental. We appealed and lost even though we had a continuation of treatment issue as well. There are some pretty affordable county programs here for addiction. I wish you luck. Hugs [/QUOTE]
