Anyone know of a free rehab/detox?!
Question: Anyone know of a free rehab/detox?
hello anyone that reads this and first off let me thank you for taking the time to read/respond....
i am at rock bottom... opiate addiction, and i see no way out... i use to not want to go to rehab, but at this point i would go in a heartbeat... if i had money. does anyone know of a free rehab/detox?? even if i could go for a week to get away from these people places and things... i heard rehab cost around 20,000$... and theres no way i can even afford a thousand.
Is there anywhere i can go for free rehab/detox?? it would help me more then i can help myself right now... i would really appricate ANY feedback from anyone... God Bless and anyone reading this that never had an addiction, seriously it is nothing to mess with.. peer pressure is huge these days and people say it doesn't effect them but it effects everyone. if you know anyone thats into drugs try to get them to help their self, if they wont you need to let them go... addiction is NOTHING to mess with... it changes who you are... Marijuana i dont consider a drug but seriously man anyone that thinks drugs are going to get you somewhere in life, they arnt... please if i could prevent just one person from going through the pain im going through it would make me so happy.

Here in South Carolina there's the Vocational Rehabilitation Department and they can help you get into a 28 day program for free. There's a Voc Rehab in Pennsylvania too, but I'm not sure if they offer the same services. Give them a call and find out...412-392-4950. Their website says it's for people with disabilities, but their website in SC says the same thing. So they may offer the same services. It would not hurt to ask. The toll free number for Voc Rehab in SC is 800-832-7526. Good Luck!
Check with a social worker at your local hospital to see what your local authorities have available in your community for financing options.
Please call this number. This is not a rehab place, but this person may be able to get you a rehab place that is reasonable in price. Celebrate Recovery has helped so many people. A co-worker I know used to use drugs and now he has changed and is helping others. He is part of this group. I see that you live in PA so I looked it up on a website to see a PA location. Again this is not a rehab, but this man may be able to help you locate rehab.
Please call.. Celebrate Recovery- Christian-oriented groups for people addicted to alcohol or other drugs

Hi their,after reading your post it bought back many memories,This time last year I was in exactly the same position to you,I had had trouble with drugs for a few years starting off like most with cannabis and then moving onto much harder drugs,nothing positive comes out of taking drugs,it always leads to a negative path,my life was like a roller-coaster,up,down,up,down,cause in life everyday is going to different some good,some bad,but drugs enhance this 10 times more.After finally admitting I had a serious problem I went to seek help. I am not from the U.s, I am British so our health care might be slightly different to yours but what our national health service had to offer was ****,group sessions,accupuntrue sessions,what a load of shite,so then i took the step into looking at rehab, i was told that their inst really such thing as a free rehab,unless u are a very serious case. ,i didnt have much hope,or care for life anymore,my physical and mental state started to decline very quickly,and at this time thier was a legal anthptaime based drug avaivable on the market,it was worse than any drug i had tried before,and thier isnt a whole lot i cant say i havent tired. i anomously appeared on a national radio,via my father who was outraged at the time,that the goverment wouldnt ban this drug even though,many deaths had been related to the drug in a very short space of time.
After a short period of press attention,an increidble member of the public contacted the radio,saying they had heard my story,and knew of a catholic community that helped people with drug additction,It is an Italian catholic community called Cenacolo that was set up 25 years ago by a nun called sister elvira,it has now over 60 centres world wide,including 3 in america. It is not like most rehab centres which COST MONEY,Cenacolo is completley free.it does not comprise of doctors,consellours,any medical people of any sort.Most of the people in the community are thier for all the same problems,addiction,most of it being drugs but it can be any type,each centre has a resopsible/head of the house,which is an ex addict and has been in the community normally for a couple of years,so they have seen pretty much evrything. The diffrence between this community and rehab centres,is that it requires a lot of commitment and willing to change,Every house is all based on the same ethos,getting structure and resposibitly back into your lifes,but most importnalty they help you replace this attachment with drugs to more positive things such as religion and your love with god. I know it sounds cheesy and a little cultish,but this place is a life saver,I could go on and on all day about the community,but i completley understand your current situation,in the end its only you that can change,but its virtually impossible to do it on your own,this is the website below for the community with houses in america ,http://www.comunitacenacolo.org/
Thier any diffrent contact numbers,but the conact number for those like your selves living in places such as pennsylvania/new york/new haven counties contact a person called Kaye Haggerty, 610-965-6369 or 610-349-4211,but all the information is on the website link below,I highly reccomend getting in contact with them,even if it is not your cup of tea,they have many contacts and are always willing to help no matter what. All the best,and i hope this may of been some help to you.
God Bless
