[quote=Anonymous]Call Aquila Recovery in Friendship Heights. You can visit them before making a decision--I strongly advise checking places out for fit etc. rather than blindly signing up without due diligence. When we used them they had an excellent psychiatrist who prescribes Vivitrol, which can be very useful in overcoming alcoholism. From my research, I think inpatient rehab as the way to go if you can afford it is way oversold In fact, the vast majority have low success rates. Their schtick is that relapse is part of recovery and so success rates aren't the telling statistic you'd expect. All too often, though, this is a justification to keep doing more of the same failed approaches. Outpatient programs can be successful, as can no program but working with a therapist familiar with addiction. And drugs like Vivitrol can really help. Many sear by AA, but it really isn't for everyone. On the plus side it is free. Good luck. http://www.aquilarecovery.com/[/quote]
