not sure if this a joke thread or whatever, don't care i'm not ashamed - I was in rehab for 50 days in 2020. After an incident where a friend of mine died at my workplace i was too mindfucked to keep working. Not into hard drugs or alcohol, weed use went into overdrive all day long which doesn't really help.
I was attending dr appts, counselling and psychologist regularly but not seeing any progress mentally and after about a year and a half a hybrid ptsd/addiction inpatient service was offered. I was reaching out for anything i could at the time.
It was somewhat of a high-end place (cost of $40,000 covered by workplace insurance). Being there was really hard at first, 50 days ahead of me was daunting - super upset for about a week and then realized after meeting people and doing things that i was kind of enjoying it.
The addiction piece was alcoholics anonymous based, which i guess is pretty common. I wouldn't say it was a bad experience but it's a pretty brainwashy approach. I met a lot of good people, some annoying people, some crazies which was overall entertaining.
If you look into it the success rate on sobriety after being in rehab it's something like 1% if that - so like, it's not like something that's going to solve everything in your life by any means but it was a good 'soft reset'. If you're in a bad place and its available i'd say take it.
Worst part was being away from my wife, also i shared a room with 2 dudes which wasn't bad but not ideal because i snore like a mofo.
