Any Suggestions on Good and Affordable Inpatient Drug Rehab Facilities?

Question by hrnyplygrl: Any suggestions on good and affordable inpatient drug rehab facilities?
I live in cupertino, ca (bay area) and I’m just wondering if anyone knows and good inpatient centers to go to. I partly want to do this for myself but the other part is for court. I’m on the DEJ or deferred entry of judgement which is a 8 or 10 week drug program outpatient though. I can’t seem to make myself go. So, I’m thinking inpatient might be better. It would need to be affordable and also most likely approved by a judge. Thanks!

How Can I Find a Psychiatrist in Mineola, NY Area That Does Addiction Treatment?

Question by B333: How can I find a psychiatrist in Mineola, NY area that does addiction treatment?
One of my good friends is currently depressed and she has recently picked up on the habit of using opiates to self-medicate. Her family feels helpless and has requested that I help them out. The thing is that she refuses to go to inpatient drug rehab, partially because she is not willing to give up work and school in order to go do inpatient. Another thing with her is that she is currently taking psychiatric medications, which have been prescribed to her a while ago, but she is no longer under a psychiatrists supervision to monitor the drugs and better treat her depression.
