3 Tips for Finding Help for Opiate Addiction

3 Tips for Finding Help for Opiate Addiction

Recognizing the need to find help for an addiction to opiates is the first step on your road to recovery. No one chooses to become addicted, and the impact of addiction can affect more than just the person with a substance use disorder.

Opiates like heroin can take control of a person’s life, leading to financial concerns, problems with the law, strained relationships, and even death caused by overdose. Individuals addicted to opioids like heroin often feel detached, numb, and helpless, and isolate themselves from friends and family.

If you are ready to get treatment for an addiction to opiates, or if you think a loved one has a substance use disorder, there is hope for recovery. When people enter recovery, they learn new ways to deal with the problems that may have led to their addiction through treatment, counseling, and support.

If you’re ready to get help and gain control of your life again, our provider network can help! Here’s how to find a recovery option that works for you.

Many of our provider agencies also offer “same day access” for individuals with a substance use disorder, and will work with you to schedule treatment services around your schedule, whether you are looking for inpatient or outpatient rehabilitation services.

3. Paying for treatment

We understand that you or a loved one may have financial barriers to seeking treatment. That’s why we have service contracts in place with many of our providers to offer a continuum of care.
