Why LGBTQ-specific care can matter

Research summarized by the National Institute on Drug Abuse finds that sexual and gender minority people report higher rates of substance use and substance use disorders than the general population. Researchers often explain the gap with minority stress: the extra, ongoing strain of stigma, discrimination and having to stay on guard.

A program with an LGBTQ group gives you a place to talk about those pressures with people who share them, instead of working around them.

How alcohol rehab works

Never stop heavy daily drinking suddenly without medical advice; withdrawal can cause seizures. Programs near Elkins with medical detox can manage it safely, then move you into therapy.

Prescription monitoring

West Virginia's prescription drug monitoring program is the Controlled Substances Monitoring Program, housed in the state Board of Pharmacy. It collects dispensing data on controlled substances, and prescribers are required to check it before prescribing opioids.

Court-ordered treatment

West Virginia law allows involuntary hospitalization of a person who is addicted and likely to cause serious harm because of the addiction, starting with a hold of up to 72 hours and followed by a court petition if longer care is needed. This is governed by Chapter 27, Article 5 of the state code.

Using your insurance

Before you call a program, have your insurance card ready and ask three things: is the program in network, does this level of care need prior authorization, and what will you owe after the deductible. Our insurance guides walk through major carriers.
