      Commonly Asked Questions about Addiction and Treatment


      How do I confront someone about their drug addiction?

      Confronting someone about their drug addiction is a delicate task, requiring a compassionate, non-judgmental approach. It's crucial to express your concerns without inciting defensiveness. Here are some steps to guide you through this process:

      1. Educate Yourself: First, understand that addiction is a chronic brain disease, not a moral failing or a choice. Learn about the specific drugs your loved one is using, the signs of addiction, and potential treatment options. This knowledge will help you approach the conversation with empathy and provide credible information.
      2. Plan the Conversation: Choose a calm, private, and neutral setting to discuss your concerns. Ensure the person is sober and in a clear state of mind. It might be helpful to have another concerned friend or family member present, but avoid making the person feel cornered.
      3. Use "I" Statements: Frame your concerns in a way that focuses on your feelings and observations rather than casting blame. For example, "I have noticed that you've been missing work frequently and I'm worried," instead of, "You're ruining your life."
      4. Be Honest and Specific: Explain your concerns and the behaviors you've observed. Use specific instances and concrete examples when possible, but avoid sounding accusatory.
      5. Express Love and Concern: Make it clear that your intention comes from a place of love and concern. The goal is not to attack or criticize them, but to show that you care about their well-being.
      6. Listen: Allow them to share their feelings and thoughts without interruption. This is not just about you expressing your concerns but also about understanding their perspective.
      7. Avoid Arguing: The person may react defensively or deny the problem. While this can be frustrating, try to avoid arguments. Keep your focus on expressing your concern and encouraging them to get help.
      8. Suggest Professional Help: Let them know there are professional resources available for addiction, such as therapists, counselors, and rehabilitation centers. Encourage them to seek professional help, emphasizing that there is no shame in doing so.
      9. Consult a Professional: If you're unsure about how to approach the situation or if previous attempts have been unsuccessful, consider consulting a professional interventionist.

      Will insurance companies pay for substance abuse treatment?

      Yes, many insurance companies do provide coverage for substance abuse treatment, but the extent and specifics of the coverage can vary widely depending on the individual insurance policy and the provider.

      This coverage is largely due to the Mental Health Parity and Addiction Equity Act of 2008 in the United States, which requires health insurers and group health plans to provide the same level of benefits for mental and/or substance use treatment and services that they do for medical/surgical care.

      Here's a closer look at some key aspects:

      Types of Treatment Covered: Many insurance policies cover a range of substance abuse treatments, including detoxification, inpatient rehab, outpatient rehab, medication-assisted treatment, and ongoing counseling or therapy. However, the specific treatments covered will depend on your particular insurance policy.

      Co-Pays and Deductibles: Even if an insurance policy covers substance abuse treatment, you may still be responsible for co-pays, deductibles, or coinsurance. These costs can vary depending on the specifics of your insurance plan.

      Network Restrictions: Some insurance plans may only cover treatment provided by certain providers or facilities within their network. It's important to check with your insurance company to determine which providers are covered under your plan.

      Preauthorization: Some insurance plans require preauthorization for certain types of substance abuse treatment. This means that the treatment must be approved by the insurance company before they will cover the cost.

      Duration of Coverage: The duration of coverage for substance abuse treatment can vary. Some insurance plans may only cover a certain number of days of inpatient treatment or a certain number of therapy sessions, for example.

      Affordable Care Act (ACA): Under the ACA, all health insurance plans sold on Health Insurance Exchanges must cover substance use disorder services.


      Can I go cold turkey to stop abusing opioids?

      While going "cold turkey," or suddenly stopping the use of opioids, might seem like a fast way to begin recovery, it's generally not recommended due to the severity of withdrawal symptoms and potential health risks.

      Opioid withdrawal can be intensely uncomfortable and, in some cases, hazardous. Symptoms can include severe cravings, restlessness, muscle and bone pain, insomnia, diarrhea, vomiting, cold flashes, and involuntary leg movements. In severe cases, withdrawal can lead to serious dehydration or electrolyte imbalances.

      Furthermore, abruptly stopping opioid use can significantly increase the risk of relapse. The discomfort of withdrawal symptoms may make it more difficult to stay abstinent, and an individual may be tempted to use again just to relieve these symptoms. If a person relapses and takes the same dose they were previously accustomed to, the risk of overdose is high because the body's tolerance to the substance has decreased.

      For these reasons, opioid withdrawal should ideally be managed under the supervision of healthcare professionals. Medication-assisted treatment (MAT), which includes medications like methadone, buprenorphine (Suboxone), and naltrexone, can be used to help reduce withdrawal symptoms and cravings. These medications work by acting on the same brain receptors targeted by opioids, but they do so in a safer manner that helps to manage withdrawal and reduce the risk of relapse.

      In addition to MAT, counseling and behavioral therapies are typically part of a comprehensive treatment program for opioid use disorder. These approaches can help individuals develop the skills and strategies needed to maintain recovery in the long term.
