[QUOTE="Nancy, post: 606435, member: 59"] comatheart our city newspaper just ran a five day series on heroin use in our city and surrounding suburbs. They are having a summit in November with doctors, therapists, police, DEA, etc to try to come up with ideas on how to deal with it. Prescription drugs are becoming harder to get and the user needs more and more to get the same feeling They switch to heroin because it is cheaper and easier to get. I'm not trying to scare you into thinking this is what will happen, but it is a huge problem everywhere and something it's good for you to be aware of before it happens. Hopefully the rehab centers in your area are aware of all this and will take your son's prescription use seriously. We had to pay out of pocket for our daughter's rehab less about $3,000 that the insurance paid for the hospital detox part. There are rehab treatment centers that you can work with for a set fee and then qualify for scholarship. Many centers start out wth a 30-60 day stay and it can go from there plus aftercare. We could only afford 60 days and then did 8 weeks of aftercare. [/QUOTE]
