Question by SHELTIELUVER: Help! I need to go to a drug rehab but can’t afford it, any suggestions on how to find a sponser?
SHould I write a newspaper article, contact the news, etc..? If I don’t get help soon, I will die. I am 33 and believe it or not, am still articulate and preety. My parents used to have money years ago but my Dad did some bad business investments and now we’re broke. My Mom only makes $ 24,000 as a Catholic school teacher and I cannot work because of my addiction as well as severe depressioin and anxiety. There are cheap treatment centers but they are mainly for street people or people that are court ordered and don’t want to really be there. I want to go somewhere with people who really want to get better. I want to go somewhere comforting, serene, beautifiul with very caring staff that enjoy their jobs. I have found several places that would be perfect but they are around $ 14,000 a month and I’d atleast need to go 2 months I think. My Mom could probably pay atleast $ 5000 at the most and that’d still hurt her financially. I have been an addict for almost 20 years and (Cont’d)

have one of your close friends to have you committed by saying they fear for your safety and the state will pay for it.
you might end up in a psych ward as a side effect, though.

for one, why are you depending on your parents? you are 33 years old. that seems like a burden that i would not want to put on my parents. have you tried getting into a narcotics anonymous program? sounds to me like you need to take what you can get for the time being. go to the “street people” treatment center if thats what you can get. if you really want to change your life that badly, you will take what you can. i wish for you all the best in fighting your addiction, but PLEASE just try and do this on your own ( i mean without financially destroying your mother).
