[QUOTE="Miracle, post: 759715, member: 26597"] Our just turned 20 year old son has been in a residential mental health/drug treatment facility for 1 week. He had been in a state of untreated psychosis for several months. He called for the first time tonight and sounded pretty good. He likes the place and said they think his psychosis was drug induced (weed, lsd, ecstasy) and will start weaning him off the medication. The residential program is 40-60 days, and he mentioned staying in that state to do sober living after that. He said it’s cheap, they help him find a job, and he could save money, stay clean, and keep doing groups/therapy. I think it would be great for him to have a fresh start in a supportive, drug free environment. My concern is that he is young, grew up sheltered (homeschooled), and is not very street smart. He had a lot of difficulty navigating Freshman year at college, and I think that led to some of his substance abuse/mental health issues. Anyone have thoughts about or experiences with sober living?
