Provided by YP.combad clinic because of one rule if you test positive for
benzodiazepines(xanax,ativan,klonopin,valium) 3 times in a row they kick you out. They
dont kick you out for cocaine but that because there in aliquippa where you can walk a
couple hundred feet and get coke/crack and this is known by all counselors but only a
quarter of the point this benzo rule is targeted at a few patients who either refuse
to turn in their prescriptions or genuinly have benzo problem but instead of trying to
help these people they kick them out where they go back to old habits
lying,stealing,scheming basically putting the honest man in the way of the unhonest addict
who else are they going to steal from. So why allow patients to do any drug they want and
not get booted except benzos why not try to help them while they're there in my opinion
as a counselor we need to help these "targeted" people. I being a counselor am privi to
meetings amongst staff and i see more people personally having cocaine problems
so why only get kicked out for benzo's
Also i have had many patients who could care less about benzo's until they meet someone
selling their legit scripts so patients come in hooked on opiates and get kicked for
benzos now they're addicted to 2 drugs i just see it as a waste i am a counselor not just
an opiate-counselor
i make so much progress with a patient who gets kicked out before i can get to the other
usually new addiction which is a lot easier to deal with than a hardcore heroin addict
also being who i am i have proof of leaniency when it comes to whats called an
Auto-fail(telling us you cant pee) actually i have a lady who had 8 autofails in a year
SO IN MY OPINION YOUR BETTER TO AUTOFAIL THAN GIVE A DIRTY URINE FOR BENZOS
it at least buys me more time to try to get to the root of the problem and help the addict
also there are are cocaine anon meetings at this clinic but not 1 benzo-help group
in my opinion we are setting them up to fail everytime we kick somebody out
these are people seeking help for years of addiction and if they show 3 months of benzo
dirty urines they're kicked out before i even break the surface of their addiction
fair or not you decide your the ones who have to live in a society of addicts
ifeel like im not working for healthmasters but BENZOMASTERS because most get addicted
to benzos here then we boot'em for it
