If you’re putting money into a family member’s health and well-being, you’ll want to make sure you’re making the best choice for your Edinburg drug and alcohol abuse rehab program. While the most prudent thing to do may still be to dial our helpline advisors so they can discuss your personal needs, looking at the reviews and ratings for some of the addiction rehab clinics in or around your area is another excellent way to get started.

It's a great place, the counselor gives amazing lectures on how the brain works, and he's figured out things about addiction and how the brain changes as your addiction progresses and the possibility of basically rewiring the brain to enjoy other things to combat addiction. It's all very exciting to think about retraining your behaviors on that level, to feel hope about actually being happily sober. Most of the counselors are amazing, caring people, the living situation is awesome, and you learn and do so many cool things. The counselor that made me leave made did it arbitrarily and unfairly. I had my boyfriend and family in the living room because I thought you were allowed to show your visitors the home you were living at. I was made to leave, but my friend who had her boyfriend in our room was not even talked to about that. I really think that I could have gotten a lot from the treatment. I was so upset that I obviously relapsed... hard.
Bethany Hall has great counselors. We were not given additional drugs to help overcome other drugs. We learned to identify, confront and deal with our emotions. When there was conflict, we learned to "clear the air". It was not easy living with 9 other females. We all had responsibilities and were held accountable if we did not adhere. This was a bonafide treatment program. They did not sugarcoat or enable. You were taught the tools to live drug free
If I had really put their advice to work, and worked a program, it would have worked (in the short term.) It is still helpful, over the years, to remember some of the things I was told while at Edgehill, and I am now clean and sober.
