Hello Xander. There is help out there. You have a choice of NHS rehab, or Private rehab. From what I am told, the NHS detox etc takes ages before you get any help, and the private detox etc is immediate, but you will need to pay for it. That's basically your choice. Good luck. :D

Hi bob thanks for this tip. How much it may cause? Is it affordable? How many days that I will stay in this rehabilitation?

Hi, it depends what you call expensive? Detox from £1295 is the cheapest.

Yeah, I know they can help me. I want to live without alcohol in my life. I'm attending an AA meeting now they helped me a lot and give me advice to get my sobriety goals. Thank you for the help and support that you gave to me.

I just wanna make an update.
My life is changing and it's getting better than it was before. I feel more free and positive. I'm currently looking for another rehab center that can offer a lot of therapy choices that could help me to continually recover. I found this site, "Drug Detoxification New York", and I am planning to visit their treatment center personally. Hope I’ll find other interesting and helpful ways to remain drug free. My wife and son has been seeing me since I started doing better, and I feel relieved. I am glad that I found this forum and have been able to share my experiences and thoughts. People here are very much open in sharing their own struggles and are actively writing their thoughts to help others. Thank you to all who supported me. I'll keep being sober for the ones that I love and for myself. Have a sober life! Cheers!
