Affordable addiction counselling
Hi! RenewLife and I'm an alcoholic!
This is my first post, although I joined some time ago. I've used chat a few times and the guys there really helped getting me organized with finding local AA meetings. :-)
I was wondering if anyone happens to know of any affordable alcoholism/addiction counseling resources? Whether its by phone, online or face-to-face, or organizations that could help point me in the right direction. Any information would be greatly appreciated! I have no insurance and can't afford to pay lots for alcoholism counseling.
I really thought there would be something non-profit out there in the way of therapy but I've come up with nothing.
If anyone has any info I'd love to hear about it! And I hope I'm not violating the etiquette of the site asking this question. Fingers crossed!
Thanks in advance!

I truly don't know if there is a non-profit for therapy for adults. I know they have it to children but you wouldn't be able to use it. A lot of people use AA SOS and SMARTS because it's free.
Do you know anyone that your very close to that you can talk about your problems. I know it's hard to do but sometimes like feel good to talk to someone about your problems.

There was only one clinic in my area. I didn't have much of a choice! LOL
Mine was funded thru the state because I had lost my job. All I paid for was books. I didn't have insurance either. Maybe you can look into something like that.
I would think you'd want to stay in your area? Call your doctors office and ask -they can help.
