The Waismann Method has the highest safety measures in place. If safety is a priority, they're the one to choose.

Hi Ocd --- I was in your shoes last July and checked into most of the Rapid Detox places around the country.   I changed my mind after hearing some real horror stories on this site and at other places --- I even corresponded with a nurse who had been an assistant in many of the procedures --- She had quit over the ethics involved and her story did not inspire me to go through the he!! she described.  However, had I gone through with my plan, I would have chosen the detox center in Las Vegas --- they advertise that "No one needs to know the what you did in Vegas".  The cost was also the most reasonable at $9800 bucks --- totally done by a board certified Anesthesiologist in a hospital.  You stay for about 3 or 4 days --- first day they put you to sleep for approx 10 hours - and when you wake up they tell you "you are now clean" ---- problem with this place and all of them is that you are still going to go through some W/D's and be very weak -- many of the same things still exist - like lack of sleep, etc.  I checked the place in South Florida also but for double the cost, the procedure is the same -- Also the Waisman method in California and a  couple of others --- Man, the hype sounds great but I recommend you talk or correspond with some who have actually had it done before you put out that much money.  I have been clean now for over 3 months and I can tell you that it was worth every minute of suffering to finally get here.  Life is wayyyyyy better on this side.  All the best to you.

Research rapid detox well before you go that route. In my humble opinion, it isnt the answer yet. Sounds too good to be true. And after going through the normal withdrawal process it seems like some things just need some time. Several days may not be enough time to address several years worth of problems. It took me several months to feel appreciably better. Especially look into several deaths in the Quebec area that occurred in conjunction with a rapid detox clinic.
