Need a good semi-luxury rehab

[Tiffunky]

I am a 33 year old mother of 3 teenagers and married for 16 years. I have a pretty good insurance policy. I have been through state funded rehab for meth in 2003. The place was quite slumish but I did what I had to do. Now however life is quite different. I was sober for 7 years and became addicted to painkillers 4 years ago. It started with the Lortab and now 6 months ago added Adderall into the mix. I am overwhelmed by the kids sports, mowing and weed eating 5 acres, cleaning a large home, and no help from the kids and husband. I want to be free of addiction, but am afraid of coming off the opiates due to the physical nature. I am asking for referrals to some of the nicer rehabs anywhere in the US that will help me through the detox process, extended stay treatment (at least 45 days but no more than 60). I am tired and ready. Looking for one that will also kind of be comfortable and a semi-vacation. My insurance will pay $10,000 and I can afford SOME out of pocket but not much. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I seem to keep getting scams when I call hotlines

If you are really ready to get and stay clean it wouldnt matter if you were in a tent.  We all like to have comfortable settings but what matters most is how bad you want this.  Check into the therapists they have in a treatment facility and what type of programs they offer.

Valley Hope....Cushing, OK

(The Valley of Hope....at least it was for me~)

Half way between Ok City and Tulsa....very close to your home which would be good for family week.

I went to a place in Alabama that had the kind of cabin in the woods feel.  It was for any addicts , but specialized in health care workers, dentists, doctors, nurses and animal care professionals   I was only there for 21 days because of insurance and it was well over $25,000. So ten grand might not go far in a spa like rehab. Just a thought
Sorry can't remember the name, if you are interested I can look into it
Good luck to you and your family

It's great that you recognize your need for rehab, however, I would caution you to try to look at it less like what you have to do, and more what you WANT to do, and TRY not to go into it with so many expectations and limits.  Sure, the luxury part is nice, but not necessary.  You're not going for a spa treatment getaway, you're going to save your life and turn things around.  

Also, limiting yourself right off the bat to the length of your stay could be detrimental.  You cannot put a time limit on recovery.  Some people don't NEED the intensity of the inpatient setting as long as others, and you may get what you need to jump start your recovery in a short amount of time, but try not to go into it with a line drawn in the sand.

Very very best to you, keep us posted!

Rosencrance is good.

You also need to lay down the law with the family. The kids should have chores to do. If you have a teenage don, he can help with the mowing. The yard work.  Or your husband.  Your daughter can clean bathrooms and vacuum. Help with meals. It is not that hard.

There is no reason you should be the one woman show. Set rules and expectations. If you do go to rehab or detox at home then you will need the help. What will happen if you are away 2 weeks to a month?

Also consider outpatient. It will alliwyou to stay home but you will go there everyday (not sure about Sundays) to do groups, counseling and learn life handling skills. You are learning to deal while still living your life. I think that is a huge reward. Then at night you go to an AA or NA meeting.

You can do this.

The only 2 that come to my mind is the Betty Ford Center or Passages which is in Florida.
Your story though is no different than many women on this site. Most women on here are mothers, wives, business owners, etc...that uses opiates (and adderall) to be able to keep up with the demands we put on ourselves. Are u trying to not let your family see u w/d? U know what you need to do with or without rehab. Depending on the length of time and quantity you've been taking the opiates the w/d from opiates is like 5/7 days.
