Question by Greg C: Alcohol rehab without health insurance?
My friend needs to go into rehab for an alcohol addiction. Unfortunately, he recently lost his job (doesn’t get Cobra; not sure what the deal is with that) and his health insurance will soon be terminated, I think at the end of this week. What are his options, aside from shelling out five figures?

Alcohol is used as a celebratory gesture in just about every culture across the globe. It’s used for New Years, Christmas, birthdays, weddings, graduations, bar mitzvahs, and to commemorate just about any special occasion. In America, it’s almost like an earned rite of passage, where the elders hand the younger partygoers a sip…ah…and then it’s love at first sip.

On a sober day many alcoholics believe that they would be able to give up alcohol without alcohol addiction help, unfortunately when it comes to actually quitting many never succeed. The idea of drinking only during social occasions is a very appealing one however rarely will an alcoholic be able to only drink during social situations. For most alcoholics alcohol is still in control of their thought process and any idea of actually quitting rarely comes to fruition.

Unfortunately the reality is that Alcoholism is an addictive disease however it is a disease that can be cured through self determination and will power.

Some of us have had the misfortune of seeing a person addicted to either drugs or alcohol from close quarters. And some of us have had the grave misfortune of being addicted ourselves.
