[QUOTE="SuZir, post: 661335, member: 14557"] For some people rehabs and sober living places may not work, because the stress over social situation is so high. They may have troubles getting along or following rules. My dad did do inpatient places couple times but never lasted long - and sabotaged whole place because the whole situation was so undoable. Lack of freedom, lack of privacy, people telling him how he should feel or think, lack of downtime. He is a major G_F_G and is with Borderline (BPD), but I have to say I can relate. I don't think I would do too well in similar situation. Lack of privacy and 'me time' would be too much and make it impossible to me. I also know well how difficult even sport camps tend to be for Ache and I don't think any inpatient program relying on group work would be a good fit for him for anything. Maybe a day hospital type of setting where you go home for nights and can have your own time then. Some people thrive in group settings, some do not. And if a group setting on itself is a challenge and stressor I don't think prospects for successful inpatient rehab experience are generally that high. [/QUOTE]
