What would be a good drug treatment program for a teen?

March 5th, 2010 | by admin |

I have a daughter who has gotten into bad company, and started using drugs. She ‘fessed up to me last week, saying that she didn’t want to do it anymore. It’s become scary for her. I admire her for coming to me and telling me that she needs help. I want to give her the best I can. What would be a good thing to do?

There are lots of good drug treatment programs out there. The best thing to do would be to consult a doctor first so he would be able to properly assess your daughter’s situation. An inpatient rehabilitation might do her wonders, especially if done in a therapeutic community in a non hospital setting. Counseling might do her good. It really depends. At least she’s willing to change now. That’s certainly a good sign. Just be there for her every step of the way and have her treated as soon as possible.

Good luck!

    to get a good tratment your daughter must have a very strong will to stop drugs which also depends on u to always encouge her and strengthen her will
    second thing you have to go to a doctor to tell u which is the best treatment for her case depending on the kind of drugs she used to take,
    good luck
