Methadone Treatment: Open Question: My Brother Has a Major Drug Problem, Does Anyone Know of a Good Treatment Center in Florida That Is Low Cost?
Open Question: My brother has a major drug problem, Does anyone know of a good treatment center in Florida that is low cost?
My brother is 30 years old and has been an addict since he was 13. Over this time period I would say he’s collectively had about 2 years sobriety, I am 26 and a recovering addict for a little over 4 years now. My father passed away 2 years ago from methadone overdose. So I know the right things to do, I’ve been in plenty of rehabs. Here’s the problem, my Mom and my Sister-in-law are in complete denial and the worst enablers, and my brother is super slick and manipulative, so he gets whatever he wants. We own a family restaurant so we all work together and it’s to the point where my brothers actions are affecting our business. He’s been arrested twice in the last 6 months…once for hitting me (which my family sided with him…CRAZY…this is how in denial they are), and the second for numerous narcotic felony charges and possibly a gun charge (if his record is not clean of a felony he got 10 years ago). The drugs he’s been taking consist of aderrall, clonopin, HIGH STEROID ABUSE, blood pressure meds, some drug called molly, possibly bath salt, and now I think he’s back on opiates(roxys). He’s kind of a special case because of the steroid abuse. My family is now starting to agree with me that he needs help but we dont know where to begin. $ 10,000 we can afford, but anything over that is pushing it. I wish I could call Dr. Drew right now, but I cant so I need help. I live in Fort Myers, and the treatment centers here aren’t that great. PLEASE ANY HELP I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE…WE ARE AT OUR LAST STRAW

Resolved Question: Is 45mg of oxycodone too much for me?
I took 45 mg at about 8pm. Its almost 11 now. I can take 30 mg without hesitation. I’ve been doing it for about 4 or 5 months now, pretty often, but not EVERY day. I chew it up so it hits me faster. I feel really high, I can almost fall asleep if I close my eyes or if I’m not trying to stay awake. My pulse is kinda weak and I am a little worried. Im not extremely high but I feel pretty up there. I know I need to stop, I don’t wanna go through withdrawals or let this turn into an even worse habit. Does anyone think I could experience a fatal overdose? I have 72bpm but my pulse feels weak and its goin up and down sometimes less than 70. maybe im just paranoid cause I smoked a little ganja I don’t know. I take it recreationally and I have taken up to 120 in a day and up to 45 at once. But I haven’t had any in a few days. 30mg Monday, 40 on tuesdayand about 15 on Wednesday. So should I take myself to the hospital?

Resolved Question: does welfare cover weight loss surgery?
I am not on welfare nor have any interest in weight loss surgery but a friend of mine who is very anti-government swears his ex wife got weight loss surgery (a sleeve put in… whatever that means) and it was paid for by welfare. I don’t believe that’s possible so he told me to check my sources (though he has none of his own for his stance on the topic… go figure). Now… my common sense tells me that that’s just not so… But maybe I’m wrong. Does welfare insurance or however you refer to medical benefits that are given to people on welfare cover things like cosmetic and weight loss surgery? She’s not morbidly obese or has had a history or obesity nor is she immobile or handicapped in any way or form or have any health issues.
