[QUOTE="ColleenB, post: 717390, member: 19887"] Portage is a good program if you can get him to go. I had a bed for my son before he was 21 ( that's the cut off for our Portage here in NB) but he wouldn't agree to go.... almost killed me. He did the one week detox but besides that nothing else. He had an addictions counsellor but he stopped that too. I do not think he is clean but there is little I can do and he no longer lives with us.... I too think even though our health care system works most of the time, our mental health services are severely lacking! It's like a battle to get any services when they actually want help. We were ready to pay for the private but he refused. Good luck talking to your son..... [/QUOTE]
