How will I get to find substance abuse treatment centers in Lincolndale, New York?
Q. I need to do this for my friend. Among the two of us, she has always been the more responsible one. She looked after me as if I was her little sister. Ever since her boyfriend broke up with her, though, things changed. I would often find her slumped on her bed whenever I visit her house. She hid it from us, but she has also been indulging in alcoholic beverages as well. I sat beside her all day yesterday. We reminisced and cried, and she finally agreed to get herself treated for her alcohol addiction. This is why I need to find substance abuse treatment centers. Any help will be surely appreciated.

A. Oh, I'm so sorry about what happened to your friend. It's really not worth it-- ruining her life over just a guy, I mean. It's a good thing that she has already realized that she's not doing herself a favor by indulging in alcohol. Just keep on being there for her as your moral support and encouragement would surely make a lot of difference. As for treatment centers, the links below will help you in finding them. You can also ask your friend's parents to take her to a hospital so she can get checked up on by a doctor. The doctor will then be able to tell your friend what kind of treatment program she should undergo as well as which treatment center will get to provide her with this kind of treatment. Good luck!

A. I have no idea about schools in Michigan, but a few of my friends went to college to become substance abuse counselors. They did horribly in high school and barely graduated and they got accepted into the program no problem. The program was pretty intensive and tough but had people from all walks of life of all backgrounds, educations and ages. I don't think it really matters what you take during high school, since there aren't any real 'counselling' courses in high school. Is there a peer counselling program at your school where older students help support younger students? If there is, maybe help out with that. Also, you could volunteer for some organization which helps recovering drug addicts of various ages. That would look really… [cont.]
