Hello all. I'm new to this forum.

My husband is an alcoholic. He made the decision last night to go into detox which is great except one minor detail, getting an assessment appointment to be admitted.

I called the place authorized by our insurance this morning and 9 AM and got a voice mail. No return call by 10:30 AM so I called again. Got same voice mail and left message to PLEASE call back ASAP before he changes his mind. Still no return call. This has happened before. By the time we got the return phone call, he had changed his mind.

So, I wonder, what happens if we just show up at the door?
