Why do I feel that detox clinics are social gatherings 2 meet up with alcoholics?
I don't see the logic or reasoning....My husband is in a detox clinical part of a major hospital. When I attend the family and patient meetings, there seems to me to be spirit of fun, games, and a general lack of seriousness on the members part. It's like they are saying: "I can't wait till this meeting is over so we can talk about what we like best, ALCOHOL AND DRUGS!" And then before their 1 week to a month tenure is over, I feel like they exchange numbers and addresses for the sole purpose of meeting up again to start back drinking and taking drugs.
Am I being unreasonable in my thinking? Is it just my imagination why I'm feeling this way? Please help me to understand. Your insightful advice will be highly appreciated.
